Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Michael Butler Murray’s narration brings Alex S. Vitale’s arguments to life with a steady, uninflected voice that keeps the listener engaged throughout the eight hours and seventeen minutes of this audiobook. The pacing is deliberate yet brisk, ensuring each point hits home with its full impact. While the content can be dense at times, Murray’s neutral tone helps maintain a balanced listening experience. However, some sections could benefit from more vivid inflection to underscore the emotional weight of Vitale’s arguments. Despite this minor critique, 'The End of Policing' is an essential listen for anyone interested in social justice and law enforcement reform.
