Summary

The extraordinary new autobiography from adventurer Bear Grylls.

In Never Give Up, global adventurer, Chief Scout and TV presenter Bear Grylls immerses readers in some truly remarkable adventures. As Bear shares personal stories from his toughest expeditions, this inspiring autobiography captures the exhilarating reality behind some of his hairiest survival missions.

The follow up to his internationally bestselling Mud, Sweat and Tears, Grylls takes readers behind the scenes on infamous 'Man vs. Wild' shoots and provides an insight into what it's really like to go 'Running Wild' with guests including President Obama, Roger Federer and Julia Roberts.

Along the way, Grylls explores the valuable lessons he's learned in the wild, opens up about his most personal challenges and achievements, and celebrates the true value of adventure and the enduring importance of courage, kindness and resilience.

Critic Reviews

In his gripping new memoir, Grylls takes you behind the scenes on his most thrilling adventures. Riveting.
A rocket-fuelled adventure.
Bear Grylls is an inspirational leader for people of all ages. Having had the privilege of spending time with Bear personally, I have seen what an amazing person he is. His passion for adventure is truly infectious.
So many positive messages wrapped up in Bear's many incredible adventures.
Bear is someone who truly grabs life with both hands.
At the intersection of great adventure and deep compassion waiting with open arms (and perhaps some goat brain to snack on) is Bear Grylls.
Bear is mad, bad and dangerous. But I love him!
Hanging with Bear is not for the faint of heart.
Men don't come much tougher than daredevil climber and adventurer, Bear Grylls
Confident about climbing mountains, wrestling alligators and challenging the wilderness to do its venomous worst...

I have read Bear Grylls earlier books and loved them.
This would have been a great listen if Bear had narrated it himself.
The narrator is very monotone and boring.

Wish Bear narrated the entire book

A long listen packed full on humility and gratitude and completely worth it. Narration is easy on the ears and the American accents had me grinning.

Another fun, honest memoir from Bear.

there is not a lot that I can say about this book. I was hoping for much more impact. where the author reads it is pretty good but the other guy really is not authentic sounding and so I would not recommend this as an audiobook.

disappointing narration.
