Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Mark Galeotti's narration brings 'Downfall' to life in a way that makes even complex political machinations accessible. The pacing is brisk, mirroring Prigozhin's dramatic rise and equally swift fall from grace. Galeotti’s measured yet dynamic delivery ensures the listener stays engaged throughout, even as the story veers between political intrigue and personal drama. However, at times, the sheer volume of names and events can be overwhelming; a brief glossary or summary might have helped. Overall, 'Downfall' is a must-listen for anyone interested in Russian politics and the murky world of Putin's inner circle.
