The audiobook is quite informative and provides a wealth of insights for individuals seeking to enhance their understanding of software architecture. While I can't directly comment on “97 Things Every Software Architect Should Know” as I didn't read the exact book, I found this audiobook to be a valuable resource in its own right. It covers a range of principles that are likely to benefit software architects and those in related roles. Overall, I believe it's a worthwhile listen for anyone interested in software architecture concepts and practices.
