About this listen

Ben longs to be Prime Minister one day. But with no political connections, he is about to crash out of a Master's degree with no future ahead. So when by chance he becomes fast friends with a young Arab prince, and is offered a job in his government, he jumps at the chance to get on the political ladder.

Amal dreads the throne. And with Ben’s help he wants to reform his country, steering it onto a path towards democracy. But with the king’s health failing, revolutionaries in the street, and terrorism threatening everyone, the country is ready to tear itself apart.

Alone in a hostile land, Ben must help Amal weigh what is best against what is right, making decisions that will risk his country, his family, and his life.

"A fast-paced and exciting book, yet there’s so much to think about too." (Books Are Cool)

"The writing here is superb, the story fascinating and the ideas bold. There is much to be admired in the writing of Tom Trott. The Benevolent Dictator is poignant and had me as a reader in the palm of its hand. Really spectacular." (Reflections of a Reader)

Excellent picture !

The Author Tom Trott has managed to write a picture into my mind, amazing writing capabilities.
This short story taught me so much, in short there is no perfect system, not for us greedy humans !
Coupled with Joel Daffurn narrating a beautiful audiobook was born.

Fully recommend this book to all !!!



I believe that my review was honest even so that I got this audiobook for free.
