James Dommek, Jr., an Alaska Native writer and musician, sheds new light on a real-life mystery that pits Native American folklore against the US justice system. In the vast Alaskan Arctic, legend has it there once lived a mythic tribe—Iñukuns—that only existed in rumors and whispers. This changed forever when an actor-turned-fugitive, Teddy Kyle Smith, had an encounter that brought Iñukuns from myth to reality. Smith was an aspiring actor with a promising career until it all came quickly crashing down with a gunshot, a manhunt, bloodshed, and other frightful events.

So Authentically Well Done
Revisado: 10-25-20
This production gets 5-stars all around. The story is such a great combination of local lore and contemporary life. The actors are cast perfectly, and the audio sound effects did so much to elevate the storytelling. I want the story to keep going!
This story sounds Alaskan, by Alaskans, in Alaska. Please share more stories!

In Future Sex, Witt explores Internet dating, Internet pornography, polyamory, and other avant-garde sexual subcultures as sites of possibility. She observes her encounters with these scenes with a wry sense of humor, capturing them in all their strangeness, ridiculousness, and beauty. The result is an open-minded, honest account of the contemporary pursuit of connection and pleasure and an inspiring new model of female sexuality - open, forgiving, and unafraid.

Almost Made It to the End
Revisado: 05-09-20
The writing is good but not good enough to get me through the monotonous reading pattern and vocal fry of the narrator. Every sentence is like riding a wave on the endless ocean - up...down, up...down. I couldn't hang.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 238
The Decameron is one of the greatest literary works of the Middle Ages. Ten young people have fled the terrible effects of the Black Death in Florence and, in an idyllic setting, tell a series of brilliant stories, by turns humorous, bawdy, tragic and provocative. This celebration of physical and sexual vitality is Boccaccio's answer to the sublime other-worldliness of Dante's Divine Comedy.

How Aristocrats Quarrantine
Revisado: 04-19-20
I started reading this book for an art history class and knew I'd never make the time to properly appreciate the translation. That being said, I am so glad to have found this particular audio recording. There is a full cast of excellent readers who bring the stories to life! I had been listening while self-isolating due to Corona virus, and a side benefit of listening to a full cast was feeling like there was a whole group of storytellers in my living room.
Boccaccio uses the framing narrative of young Aristocrats fleeing a the plague to tell his stories. Listening to their fanciful flight across the Italian contryside was a welcome contrast to my own shelter-in-place reality. Well read.

A carnival rolls in sometime after the midnight hour on a chill Midwestern October eve, ushering in Halloween a week before its time. A calliope's shrill siren song beckons to all with a seductive promise of dreams and youth regained. In this season of dying, Cooger & Dark's Pandemonium Shadow Show has come to Green Town, Illinois, to destroy every life touched by its strange and sinister mystery.

The Narrator's Performance is Stellar
Revisado: 06-13-16
This is an vibrantly wrtten story and one of my favorites from Bradbury. The Narrator's performance was out of this world. I highly recommend this audiobook.
