Jeremiah Hunter Audiobooks

Thirty-one minutes is a size, not an abridgement, and it is the first thing worth saying about Grounded Under Fire. A genuine short form has emerged in business audio over recent years: one idea, one sitting, no padding, and this title belongs to it squarely.

Jeremiah Hunter reaches our business and careers shelf with that piece of work. The title sets composure against pressure, which is the perennial subject of workplace writing, though we will let the book itself say how it chooses to treat it.

Nothing else about the writer is on the record here, and inventing something would serve nobody.

Ken Marshall narrates, and at half an hour the recording asks very little of anyone: one journey, one queue, one walk around the block. The economics of the short form are unusually favourable to the listener, since a book of this length can be replayed until it sticks without costing an evening.

No ratings have been logged against it, which is ordinary for a recent and very brief title rather than a mark against it. The obvious approach is to play the whole thing once and decide afterwards, since deciding halfway is barely possible at this length.

It is below if you have half an hour going spare.
