Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Ian Wright’s voice resounds through every minute of this audiobook, making you feel like he’s right there recounting his life story. Mendez’s narration is a standout, matching the energy and humor of Wright’s writing. The pacing is brisk but never rushed, allowing each anecdote to unfold in its entirety. From early struggles to international glory, Wright’s journey is both inspiring and relatable. However, at times the narrative can feel too fast, leaving some moments unexplored. Still, this is a must-listen for football fans eager to get an insider's perspective on one of the game's true legends.
