About this listen

ISIS rocketed onto the world stage seemingly out of nowhere, beheading American hostages, bulldozing international borders, routing the American-trained Iraqi army, and carving out a new state that rules eight million people and a territory larger than the United Kingdom. But who are they? Where did ISIS come from, and how did they rise to power in so little time? What is driving them - and how can they be stopped?

New York Times best-selling author Robert Spencer reveals the blood-drenched history and inner workings of the Islamic State - its military conquests, how it is financing its expansion, and the ideology that is driving its success. As Spencer reveals, the Islamic State has taken the first steps on the path to becoming a serious world power - steps that Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda dreamed of but were afraid to take. The Complete Infidel's Guide to ISIS is your one-stop easy reference for all you need to know about ISIS - and how "infidels" can stop its reign of terror.

Interesting but annoying narration

The book is an interesting account of IS. The author covers the topic in great depth though it does feel like he is somewhat opinionated and not so balanced at times. The narration however is pretty aweful. It is generally unclear when quotes are being used. Given the extent of quoted text it can be really difficult to follow and seems stupid that the narration doesn't account for this.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
