Boring

Revisado: 08-20-19

Sorry, I just could not become at all interested in the topics they were covering. Even as a scientist and physician, I could not sustain any interest in this audible series.

Inaccurate

Revisado: 08-20-19

Being a fan of true crime, thought I would give this a try. Had to stop after the second story, which was full of inaccuracies. In speaking about the Louise Woodward case (where a British nanny shook a baby) they relied heavily on quotes from defense lawyes rather than on the testimony of physicians in regards to Abusive Head Trauma (previously known as “Shaken Baby Syndrome”). As a pediatrician with training in the field of child abuse, I can tell you that the reported injuries are absolutely consistent with Abusive Head Trauma. Unfortunately, their coverage of this case appeared to have some bias, perhaps owing to the fact that this was produced by a British company.

Campy

Revisado: 10-04-18

I love the X-files; so I was disappointed to listen to a campy, difficult to understand audiobook of short stories. Unfortunately the stars who do so well on screen do not translate as well in an audio only format. In trying to avoid narration, the characters speak in expositions. It would almost be better to take an episode of the X-files, remove the video, and just listen to the audio. Hoping that future productions of this kind sound better.

Mind numbingly boring

Revisado: 01-26-18

Wow. I am 12 chapters in and I cannot go any further. I really enjoyed the other three books, but this is about as exciting as reading the genealogy parts of the Old Testament. The reader is fair, but I don’t think anyone could make this material exciting. It’s very repetitious, and mostly consists of, “so-and-so waged war on so-and-so who ruled for so many years only to be conquered by what’s-his-name” over and over again. Reminds me of the Iliad. Or the Silmarillion by Tolkien. Don’t listen to it while driving, you may fall asleep.
