Ok for a beginer. worth a read maybe !

The good.
Well narrated, I liked the history of chess part at beginning.

The not so good,
needs a PDF to go with it, narrator refers to diagrams so many times, but provides no reference materials.
probably needs to be 10 hours long, not 1 hour 56 minutes, that way some openings could be explained better same for
strategies.

If a PDF is added, and Mr Phillips expands the audiobook its worth a buy, otherwise look else where...
