American Kingpin by Nick Bilton
Listened to this one on Spotify. Pretty good narration, but not the best. Gave it a 4 just because of the writing style and content. It’s a non-fiction tale about the founder of the Silk Road, his rise to power and his downfall. VERY interesting listen, mainly due to the way in which the story is told. Bilton wrote this as if it was a fiction thriller. It does not feel like a heavy non-fiction read at all. Super engaging and a page-turner, without a doubt.
