Historia
Five years ago, the US Space Force became a reality. And while those writing the checks took things very seriously, the other military branches did not. As a result, Space Force was populated by undesirables. My name is Captain Ethan Stone, a decorated member of SEAL Team Six turned Space Force "recruit". Flash forward five years and between tenses. President West is in office. Power has shifted. And Space Force is defunded. With just a handful of us still living on base, we find ourselves being evicted. But before all of us can leave, aliens invade.

Historia
The galaxy is doomed. Monkeys may be clever and too stubborn to give up, but Skippy The Idiot Who Got Played knows the harsh truth: this is a fight he can’t win. The odds are not only stacked against him, he was designed not to win this fight. Maybe he can salvage some faint memory of the civilizations that inhabit the galaxy, but those beings are doomed. Doomed. Including the Merry Band of Pirates.

a disappointing finish to a wonderful series
Revisado: 01-07-23
two thirds of this book is Skippy whining about how the situation is hopeless and that everyone should just give up. the end has a number of miracles that Skippy is suddenly aware he can perform to save the day. halfway through I was rooting for the bad guys to burn it all down.

The story feels like is was over about halfway through, but the author invents a complication that was never mentioned until then, but later they claim it had to be that way or ... lame reason. The narrator didn't vary his voice with the different characters but otherwise was okay.

Good material if you can stay awake
Revisado: 05-06-16
Would you listen to Adoption Healing again? Why?
Only if I can use a speed control - this reader would be great for an insomnia treatment book.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Adoption Healing?
The book is instructional, not narrative.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Elan O'Connor?
Mike Chamberlain. He is an excellent reader, and an appropriate choice since the author is male.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The book is instructional, not narrative.
Any additional comments?
The reader was easy to understand and had no accent, but she seemed to blod through this book like a sleepwalker. Perhaps she felt the intended listener would be an adopted newborn?

Historia
First published in 1525, Martin Luther's Bondage of the Will is acknowledged by theologians as one of the great masterpieces of the Reformation. It is Luther response to Desiderius Erasmus' Diatribe on Free Will, written in his direct and unique style, combining deep spirituality with humor. Luther writes powerfully about man's depravity and God's sovereignty. The crucial issue for Luther concerned what ability free will has, and to what degree it is subject to God's sovereignty.

Historia
In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the "antifragile" is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner.

- De: Nassim Nicholas Taleb

good book on topic rarely (if ever) discussed
Revisado: 03-08-13
If you could sum up Antifragile in three words, what would they be?
We predict trivia (implying we shouldn't be, but instead put some effort into coping with the antifragile events in life).
What did you like best about this story?
It provides answers to the issues brought up by The Black Swan, but you need not read TBS to gain from this book.
Have you listened to any of Joe Ochman’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
n/a
What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?
Haven't finished yet, but the basic premise of the book is what has "grabbed" me thus far (I plod slowly through books like this, but it makes it more helpful that way).
Any additional comments?
Thank you for bleeping the profanity. (I would've preferred silence to a beep, though.)

Historia
Pilgrim Theology is a map for Christians seeking to better understand the core beliefs of their faith. Even though it's the study of God, theology has a reputation for being dry, abstract, and irrelevant for daily living. But theology is a matter of life and death. It affects the way you think, the decisions you make, the way you relate to God and the world. Reformed theologian and professor Michael Horton wrote Pilgrim Theology as a more accessible companion to his award-winning systematic theology The Christian Faith.

- Core Doctrines for Christian Disciples

Great content, but don't blink
Revisado: 02-06-13
What did you love best about Pilgrim Theology?
Michael has a great way of explaining deep topics without overwhelming the reader/listener, as long as you don't mind (painlessly) expanding your vocabulary in the process.
The pace demands the listener pay closer attention than some would prefer (but that is more of a criticism of the potential listener than this author). Fortunately he keeps things quite interesting.
I started listening on the release date and kept it on continuously to the end, pausing only to sleep. Can I give this book SIX stars???
What other book might you compare Pilgrim Theology to and why?
Most anything by R C Sproul - written for those of us who haven't graduated from Seminary but secretly wish we had.
Have you listened to any of Vicas Adam’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have no previous experience with this narrator. He did an above-average job with this book, but credit should be given to the author for writting in a style that is more conversational than most Theological texts.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I appreciate Michael's treatment of the Gospel itself, which I gather is something few church-goers could accurately define, much less communicate clearly.
Any additional comments?
Many thanks to Audible for providing this book and others like it, especially when so many "contrary theological opinions" pepper the shelves here...

Historia
Unfortunately, children don’t come with operating instructions, so raising even the most compliant kids can sometimes be disconcerting. Acknowledging that some youngsters are more challenging than others, Dr. James Dobson offers real help with establishing parent-child relationships, maintaining sanity, and banishing guilt. A Doctor of Philosophy in child development and the founder of the international organization Focus on the Family, Dr. Dobson has become one of America’s most respected family therapists.

A lot goes into Dr Dobson's work - not just a few examples but thousands (or more).
