Historia
Tackling the climate crisis requires us to visit the roots of poverty, capitalist exploitation, police brutality and legal injustice. Climate justice offers the real possibility of huge leaps towards racial equality and collective liberation as it aims to dismantle the very foundations of these issues. In this book, Mikaela Loach offers a fresh and radical perspective for real climate action that could drastically change the world as we know it for the benefit of us all.

understand climate justice + technical problem
Revisado: 04-13-23
Such an important book on the importance of insisting on climate justice. The book offers important arguments for non violent activism and counterarguments for green capitalism. The perspective from a young Jamaican woman of color is something that adds something special. It's an approachable story that gives some new perspectives without being overwhelming. Important note though. Chapter 7 seems to be two audiotracks at the same time. the beginning of the book overlaps with this chapter making it unintelligible... I assume it's a technical problem that's easy to solve for audible.

Historia
All her life, Spensa has dreamed of becoming a pilot. Of proving she's a hero like her father. She made it to the sky, but the truths she learned about her father were crushing. The rumours of his cowardice are true - he deserted his flight during battle against the Krell. Worse, though, he turned against his team and attacked them. Spensa is sure there's more to the story. And she's sure that whatever happened to her father in his starship could happen to her. When she made it outside the protective shell of her planet, she heard the stars - and it was terrifying.

practical book to create better characters
Revisado: 12-07-22
This is a really nice book with useful questions to ask yourselves about your book. I feel I have a much better idea of what qi can do with my characters. I just wish there was a pdf of the lists of questions to go along with it to. That would really help practically.

I love these characters!
Revisado: 10-08-22
I'm reading this series for the second time and it's not any less emotional than the first time. I don't think any band of heroes can be as relatable en their worried and struggles as these!

Historia
The story of Troy speaks to all of us - the kidnapping of Helen, a queen celebrated for her beauty, sees the Greeks launch a thousand ships against the city of Troy, to which they will lay siege for 10 whole and very bloody years. It is Zeus, the king of the gods, who triggers the war when he asks the Trojan prince Paris to judge the fairest goddess of them all. Aphrodite bribes Paris with the heart of Helen, wife of King Menelaus of the Greeks, and naturally, nature takes its course.

Stephem Fry dazzles the listener as usual
Revisado: 08-06-22
I believe Stephen Fry would be nice to listen to even if he read the terms and conditions no one ever reads. He made the many different side storylines interesting enough and did not overly go into detail when not required.

Listen along as Tanis Parenteau's impeccable narration, capturing the rhythms of Navajo speech, fully envelopes you into the Sixth World.

refreshing story
Revisado: 12-09-21
I loved the indigenous lore and powers. This story managed to give a positive on post-collapse image while being engaging! Yes, I really appreciate books that pull of this neat balancing trick.

After walking through the portal in the Tower of Swallows while narrowly escaping death, Ciri finds herself in a completely different world...an Elven world. She is trapped, with no way out. Time does not seem to exist, and there are no obvious borders or portals to cross back into her home world. But this is Ciri, the child of prophecy, and she will not be defeated. She knows she must escape to finally rejoin the Witcher, Geralt, and his companions - and to try to conquer her worst nightmare.

Too much casual sexual abuse...
Revisado: 11-03-21
It's a decent story. One thing really bothered me too much. The amount of times Siri is being sexually abused is astounding. This is not even given any weight in the story. It just seems like it's the main thing that moves the plot forward. Really sad. I would at least like to see some support and understanding from other characters and some recognition that this is really not normal for a teenage girl to be treated in this way.

I liked the AR theme of this story. In general it was a bit too dystopian for my taste. It was a thrilling story though and we'll read.

Stephen Leeds is perfectly sane. It's his hallucinations who are mad. A genius of unrivaled aptitude, Stephen can learn any new skill, vocation, or art in a matter of hours. However, to contain all of this, his mind creates hallucinatory people - Stephen calls them aspects - to hold and manifest the information. Wherever he goes, he is joined by a team of imaginary experts to give advice, interpretation, and explanation. He uses them to solve problems...for a price. Then a company hires him to recover stolen property - a camera that can allegedly take pictures of the past....
