Was a fan of Michael before, am going to get all his books now. A great direct book on business and life, surprised me with how useful and applicable it is . To many great things to mention, but his observations on gambling and how to forgo a business meeting and do a " sit down " alone are worth a listen.

Good expect for some poor scholarship and research

Revisado: 09-03-24

Was very happy until the author showing his bias and poor research and scholarship said outright The Shroud of Turin is a Painting . Many experts have testified that it is NOT a painting , it has many elements that are not found in paintings including 3d elements as well as the photographic negatives that reveal elements that because of that tech were not revealed in prior analysis . the photographic evidence found in the negative images show it is not a painting . Otherwise very good but this glaring mistake shows that all might not be as accurate as he claimed , be on your guard with any of his other works .

Danny , God bless you in your life and work !

Revisado: 07-26-21

Best book so far this year , best bio I have ever listen to. Honest and raw , humor and sadness, I was not a big fan of his before this , I am now . Another reviewer complained about the narration, it does start off rough , it is read by the author , which I love but who else could give this story the honesty and gravitas but him . He has a rough voice but for this his story it is perfect , it might take getting used too but this story is well wort it , the pacing is good , this is the type of audiobook I love on a commute or just relaxing , it is like a friend is telling you a good story over dinner or a road trip. Danny God bless you in your life and work , I am sure you have helped many people in many ways, love too meet you one day , looking forward to the sequel to this book , which I think we make a great one man play as well . Great book thank you for doing it .

VERY FUNNY with some sad parts , good bio

Revisado: 01-26-18

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes , it is very funny with some sad parts related to child abuse . The narration was done by the author herself so it was if she was telling you the story , it added credibility and emotion to the story that given some of the gut wrenching parts made it powerful . The stories were I believe and she spoke clearly and was not hesitant in the use of profanity , this is a woman that I would like to have a beer with and hear more stories . Given the current revelations of harassment and abuse this woman ,should be seen as a source of inspiration in how to deal with and persevere .She has a wicked and sharp wit with a twisted sense of humor , this is a woman we need more of !.

What did you like best about this story?

The stories of life behind the scenes of the tv show , her honesty and humor in all her travails .

Which scene was your favorite?

The scene at the school where she was kicked , fell down and could not get up because of her dress, told in a brutal funny way . There were other scenes that were just as funny , this is one of the best biographies that I have heard in a long time.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes and no , I listen to all my books on my commute or just regular driving so I listen to them episodically, this book was great in that the performance was like a friend in the car telling you stories on a road trip. That is my personal standard of excellence in a audio book I could listen to it in one sitting but I was glad I was able take a break when the sad parts were told.

Any additional comments?

Really enjoyed this book , ( I don't post reviews for all my titles ) so this one did stand out , I hope Ms Arngrim will narrate more books or will write more herself. God bless her for her work with children and the ill , again we need more people like her .

A great companion to "A Christmas Carol "

Revisado: 12-17-17

Where does Jacob T. Marley rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

In the top 50 or so it is a heartwarming prequel/sequel to "A Christmas Carol " told in the same style as Dickens . If you liked "A Christmas Carol " and I have read and seen most movie and TV versions including the silent film version this will be very enjoyable.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Jacob T. Marley?

When he dies and how he makes contact with Scrooge.

Have you listened to any of Simon Vance’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Not that I am aware of but I will look for him now .

Who was the most memorable character of Jacob T. Marley and why?

Jacob himself , it answers some questions from "A Christmas Carol"

Any additional comments?

Read some of the other reviews they also have great takes on this book
