About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of No Spin: My Autobiography by Shane Warne, read by Rhys Muldoon.

'My story, without the spin.'


From the start of his glittering career in 1992, to his official retirement from all formats of the game in 2013, Shane Warne had long desired to tell his incredible story without compromise. No Spin is that very story. It offers a compelling intimate voice, true insight and a pitch-side seat to one of cricket's finest eras, making this one of the ultimate must-have sports autobiographies.

Shane was not only one of the greatest cricket legends: he was as close as the game had since Botham to a maverick genius on the field and a true rebel spirit off it, who always gave audiences what they wanted. Despite being the talismanic thorn in England's side for nearly two decades of regular Ashes defeats, he was also much loved in the UK where he played cricket for Hampshire. He was also a much-admired figure in India and South Africa.

Alongside his mesmerising genius as a bowler, Shane was often a controversial figure, and in this book he talks with brutal honesty about some of the most challenging times in his life as a player. Honest, thoughtful, fearless and loved by millions, Shane was always his own man and this book is a testament to his brilliant career.

As expected a real ripper from S K Warne

As a cricket lover it wasn't hard for me to listen to account of Shane Warne especially as it was his own.

I may have suspected some airbrushing here and there but it was a well delivered dive into this charismatic cricketer's life both on and off the field.

I would certainly recommend to cricket lovers. I'm still not sure about David Saker's nickname, did anyone else get it?!

Must read for any cricket fan…very good book!

One of those books that make you feel like you know the person that you’re reading about.

Very down to earth and honest. World class cricketer but also somebody that you would have a pint with down the pub!

Tells it as it is and the story flows well.

Good listen

Good listen, shame I got it because he died. Far too young with so much to give. Possibly of more interest to cricket lovers.

What a story

Great to hear a bit about a Gent, that in his time playing the game, became a legend.

Excellent, let down by not being author narrated

Thoroughly enjoyed the book. Shane has lived a really full life and discloses so much of it here. My only criticism would be that he didn't narrate it - the narrator was good but mispronounced most of the sub-continental players names which was jarring.

Loved it - extra long dog walks

I really got into the book, so much so that I frequently went on dog walks listening to it and when I got home I found myself doing an extra lap of the block just to squeeze in a couple more pages. At various points I also paused the audiobook and went on YouTube to look at some of the videos and see again what Warne was referring to.

it's really got me looking forward to the next ashes test!

Spoiled by too many nicknames

Here we have the story of arguably one of the worlds iconic sportsmen which, for me, was spoiled by the use of too many nicknames. Not being a keen follower of cricket, I couldn't keep up with who Shane was referring to on many occasions. I appreciate that this won't bother many listeners, particularly those that follow cricket closely but it cost a star for me.

Otherwise, a very entertaining listen to a very colourful life - much better viewed from the person who has lived it rather than through telephoto lenses and lurid headlines designed to sell newspapers.
