the Life of the Gold Medal Russian Pair~ 3 STARS

PLOT: fast and short story about the life of Russian Pair Skaters.

This book is not very long. it is told through the eyes of Ekatrina Gordiava from the early training and when she meets and skates with Sergei. The background of the old Russian System and the changes to the new. Eventually they marry and have a child. Win 2 gold medals at the Olympics. This is a good story for those who love skating and this sweet couple. I give this 3 STARS. the audio sounds like it was recorded in someone's garage and on a home recorder....and a Russian woman narrates. This is good but you have to pay attention because she drops words out of sentences. The Story is 4 stars but the rather poor audio quality and the distracting Russian narrator is less enjoyable than it could have been.

Beautiful story by an inspiring woman

I’m a long time, hardcore “G&G” super fan. I have a copy of this book - I bought it right after it was released - but I haven’t read it in years. Happened across a couple videos of them skating and (tearfully) thought I might see if there was an audiobook version.

Once again I love it. My one complaint is that the audio quality is terrible, especially when the music plays. I honestly had to work pretty hard to be able to understand the reader because of this.
Still, I would highly recommend it to any fellow G&G or skating fans.

Terrible recording

I can't believe I wasted a credit on this audible, I was so looking forward to hearing their love story.

Love & life

A love story which continued after tragedy. Wonderful testament to strength of the human spirit

Terrible Audio

The worst book I have ever heard recorded. I can’t even understand the narrator due to scratchy, poor quality.
Never got to hear the story, sorry to say.
