Run don't walk to listen absolutely delightful tale with a dash of whimsey. Neil Gaiman demonstrates he is not just a world builder and story crafter, but a fabulous narrator with enormous skill. enjoy! It's a treat!

Rich in performance and nuance. James Masters delivers another fabulous adventure within the mysterious world of the Dresden Files. He makes Jim Butcher's prose and world building come alive.

Historia
In this Audible Original “mini-memoir”, the Academy Award-winning star of Little Miss Sunshine and Argo looks back on his life as a series of philosophical turning points, learning experiences, and a-ha moments. Drawn from a collection of seemingly inexplicable stories and encounters from Arkin's 84 years on this planet, Out of My Mind is a candid, relatable and delightfully irreverent take on how one man went searching for meaning and ended up discovering himself.

Historia
In A Genius for Deception, Nicholas Rankin offers a lively and comprehensive history of how Britain bluffed, tricked, and spied its way to victory in two world wars. As Rankin shows, a coherent program of strategic deception emerged in World War I, resting on the pillars of camouflage, propaganda, secret intelligence, and special forces. All forms of deception found an avid sponsor in Winston Churchill, who carried his enthusiasm for deceiving the enemy into World War II.

Compelling storytelling at its finest
Revisado: 05-11-20
I'm not one to really gush about an audiobook but this is one that is compelling in both the author storytelling skill as well as Napeleon Ryan's as narrator. Napeleon was not only so well suited but beautifully directed as weil in his delivery. So kudos to everyone who created this wonderful audiowork.
Let me paint two pictures that came to my minds eye as I listened:
1. You're in a UK Command bunker in WWll. The room is filled with information flowing in and out filtered by various folks in the dim light. In the middle of the room, a map of Europe with little models of ships and soldiers representing movements and data.
In the middle of the smokey room, speaking is the Command Leader: The leader is the narrator Napeleon Ryan.
2. Or perhaps you're sitting with a retired WWll leader in a dark paneled wood room, with cigar and a whiskey located in a quiet reserved and discrete club in London. And Napeleon Ryan, as the leader is sharing you this story.
Author Nicholas Rankin's rich mesmerizing work comes alive further with Napoleon Ryan crisp, concise delivery. I don't know if this book won any awards or if it was nominated, but I would have voted for it. This audio book delivers and then some! I look forward to more from Nicholas Rankin and Napoleon Ryan.
In the 70s, there was a acclaimed British TV series called World at War narrated by Sir Lawrence Olivier. In my opinion, this book and the audiobook, like World at War, is compelling storytelling at its finest. So enjoy!
And Mr. Rankin, keep writing these wonderful works! You have a gift.

Classic mystery cinematic in plot and sound. Nuanced, warm chemistry infused performances. Wonderful direction. Just plain fun. A favorite of mine. I hope Audible adds more of the series.
