I know very little about archeology, but have always wanted to learn more. This book delivers! The narration keeps you engaged just as much as the content does. Archaeology and space what else could you want!!!!

Great story and narration
Revisado: 06-17-19
Bontrix is a great adventure book set in a wonderful steampunk world. The character development is smooth, and the world naturally forms as you read on. The narration is perfect, clear and enveloping. This is a great story and my only want is for more content like this!

Father of cyberpunk William Gibson’s original script for Alien III, written in 1987 as a sequel to Aliens, never made it to our screens, although it went on to achieve cult status among fans as the third instalment that might have been after being leaked online. This terrifying, cinematic multicast dramatisation - directed by the multi-award-winning Dirk Maggs - is the chance to experience William Gibson’s untold story and its terrifying, claustrophobic and dark encounters between humans and aliens, as a completely immersive audio experience.

Greatness! Intro a little busy
Revisado: 05-31-19
This was amazing. Was a little worried with the intro, as it had a lot of noise and was a bit confusing. That being said it is a great listen and story. Highly recommend!

Set in present-day Los Angeles, Junk explores an epic conspiracy, one at work for thousands of years that involves total takeover of the planet Earth by aliens. In the wild, souped-up vision of Les Bohem - the acclaimed, Emmy-winning writer of the Steven Spielberg miniseries, Taken - the world is at the end stage of long-range plot that involves a gigantic genetic-engineering project. The aliens who have invaded us have no planet. No spaceship is coming. Instead, a small advance force comes, breeds, and dies - thus becoming an anomaly in our DNA that can’t be explained.

Enjoyed this book, but not all of it.
Revisado: 05-29-19
The story is great, but the one male voice thought is weird, especially with some of the female portions. I loved the story, but felt like the author tried to make a point of cursing every other sentence in some sections. Cursing is acceptable, but loses effect when overdone. Love /hate relationship with this one. Worth a listen though!

Sally Stanford was a bawdy house madam like no other. She put her houses of prostitution in the most upscale area of San Francisco and charged her customers accordingly. She paid her girls the top wages of the industry and helped them deal with their problems along the way. Sally didn't hesitate to fight the powers that be in city hall and other branches of government.

Great book, easy listen and insanely interesting!
Revisado: 05-13-19
This is a great book! The narration is easy to listen to, and the story in intensely interesting. There is a lot of history, bootlegging and all sorts of colorful history. I read a lot 1-2 books a week. This is an easy book to pick up randomly and start reading, as every bit is engaging.

Make sure the kids aren’t around! Just because you’re a grown-up doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the art of the children’s bedtime story. Nick Offerman presents this collection of 12 short stories written in the style of a classic kids' tale, but with a decidedly dark and adult approach. What really happened after Snow White died, from the perspective of the one medically trained dwarf? A naive wizard professor reports back from the trenches of an underprivileged school of magic. And much more!

This book was fun I loved some of the stories, while others where decent but not great. There are quite a few gems that make the whole book worth it for sure!

In the summer of 1862, a group of young artists led by the passionate and talented Edward Radcliffe descends upon Birchwood Manor in rural Oxfordshire. Their plan: to spend a secluded summer month in a haze of inspiration and creativity. But by the time their stay is over, one woman has been shot dead while another has disappeared; a priceless heirloom is missing; and Edward Radcliffe’s life is in ruins. Over 150 years later, Elodie Winslow, a young archivist in London, uncovers a leather satchel containing two seemingly unrelated items.

Great story, but confusing
Revisado: 04-30-19
Seriously epic story. I loved this book, but took me way to long to understand what was going on due to the seemingly random switching of characters. worth reading, if you get confused early on stick with it.

Mind over Matter is not a textbook on self-discipline, nor is it a gentle and drawn-out discussion. It is a toolbox to keep you in motion and in action towards your goals. It pulls no punches as it provides direct techniques to ensure that your actions match your intentions - a difficult task.

I have been on a kick on books related to the mind lately and love this book. One of the examples happens to use exercise as one of the goals, and I love the one push-up a day idea! The narration is clear and easy to listen to as well!
