Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Fred Sanders delivers an exceptional performance that perfectly matches Larry Brilliant’s multifaceted story. His deep, resonant voice lends authority and poignancy to the narrative, especially during the poignant moments of Brilliant's personal journey. The pacing is brisk yet thoughtful, allowing listeners to absorb the rapid-fire information without feeling overwhelmed. However, some sections could benefit from more dynamic pauses for emphasis, particularly when discussing technical aspects or pivotal historical events. Despite this minor critique, 'Sometimes Brilliant' remains a must-listen for anyone interested in social change and scientific innovation.
