Not as good as I remember
Revisado: 04-14-25
Think it was a combination of this book being more meaningful when read than heard - one of the few I have encountered - as well as the author’s monotone dictation as the narrator.

Historia
In this groundbreaking treatise, Palantir co-founder and CEO Alexander C. Karp and Nicholas W. Zamiska offer a searing critique of our collective abandonment of ambition, arguing that in order for the U.S. and its allies to retain their global edge—and preserve the freedoms we take for granted—the software industry must renew its commitment to addressing our most urgent challenges, including the new arms race of artificial intelligence. The government, in turn, must embrace the most effective features of the engineering mindset that has propelled Silicon Valley’s success.

Over rated
Revisado: 03-11-25
The book came highly acclaimed. It was okay but could have been complete in about 45 minutes. Instead I had to listen to unrelated stories or the same stories over and over again.
And the narrator’s drone was painful.

The best part about this story is that it ended after a little over an hour. Don’t waste your time.

Historia
On a March night in 2000, two deputy sheriffs serving a warrant were shot in Atlanta, Georgia. One was severely wounded while the other would die a day later. The shooting kicked off a large manhunt in search of the alleged cop killer. Four days later in Alabama, authorities found their man—Jamil Al-Amin. He was a Muslim leader with the title of Imam in the West End neighborhood of Atlanta. He was also the man formerly known as H. Rap Brown. He was a charismatic Black radical in the late '60s.

I learned details about Rap Brown I never knew, but some of the true secrets were left hidden. Not sure what I was expecting, but it was something more than I got in the end.

Historia
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Far-fetched but entertaining
Revisado: 12-23-24
The storyline was unbelievable - aside from the dreams of a lunar colony - as much happened without real consequence for our heroine. But alas, it was quite entertaining and very well performed by Rosario Dawson.
Definitely worth your time.

Not the best from Knopf
Revisado: 12-05-24
Plot was only so-so. A bit too contrived for my taste. Knopf can do better. The voice actor did a good job much of the time but the attempts at changing voice for other characters was painful - felt like a 3rd grade play.

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Exactly the fiction I want to read
Revisado: 10-03-24
I was going to start with “better than The Martian”, but that’s not fair to either. It’s a similar telling of a fairy tale, embedded in near-future reality, with a robust sprinkling of realistic (sounding) deep physics. I learned something, I laughed, and I cried at various moments in the story. I found myself rooting for Rocky and Grace, at first reluctantly (so cliche) but then I couldn’t help myself.
A wonderful story.
A wonderful performance.

Historia
Eva never really wanted to be a mother - and certainly not the mother of a boy who ends up murdering seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker, and a much-adored teacher who tried to befriend him, all two days before his 16th birthday. Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with marriage, career, family, parenthood, and Kevin’s horrific rampage, in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband, Franklin.

Plodding
Revisado: 06-18-24
It was okay. Just okay. I liked the Mandibles, but this book was much more plodding and slow to evolve. Could have been 10 hours shorter.

I wish it was only a 45 minute read. Instead the plot ground on through predictable turns. Even after the climax, there was another hour of dry content. At least the voice actors gave it their all.
