Living in a neighbour country I liked the idea of learning a bit more about Putin was interesting. But I generally don’t find politics that interesting, so I put this on mostly to have something to fall a sleep to. But I kept listening to this book until the end. Never going book to my good fiction book. It starts with his parents in ww2. And I learned a lot about Putin.

Curiously though the author seems to know more about Putin the KGB agent than Putin the president. Not that this book explores at length that time as well. But you do notice the sources are further away from Putin and that there is more speculation.
A very interesting book that presents both the good and the bad.
