Description
Book SynopsisA blistering drama of betrayed friendships and high-stakes power struggles.
Trade ReviewAny book that starts with a description of a chief executive on his knees, throwing up into a bin after being betrayed by friends and investors is unlikely to be a traditional founder's tale.... This well-timed book successfully mines a story so rich it is destined to be told and retold. * Financial Times *
This exceptionally well-told story captures the Sillicon valley start-up culture in all its pioneering, hubristic glory. * Irish Times *
A tale of Machiavellian plots and coups d'etat, it's just all so gripping. I'm supposed to read all our research for our guests tomorrow but I've got terrible feeling I'm going to finish at 9:30 and just read that. * Chris Evans, BBC Radio 2 *
Backstabbing, power struggles and profanity laid bare . . . It is breathless storytelling * The Times *
A made-for-the-movies account. * Economist, Books of the Year *
