I really enjoyed. Getting an overview of the Pentesting world and its different avenues. It was really a disappointment that no PDF was with the book as diagrams where referred too though pay for the book yet don’t see any diagrams or tables is very frustrating as I’m sure it would of been easy to have them put into a PDF. Maybe a point to reflect on with an audible book. Just glad it was well paced.

Really well read book.
