Historia
It all started with the geese. The Firefly crew is eager to get paid for their latest job, but when payment arrives as a gaggle of geese instead of a purse, their stay on the planet Brome gets an indefinite extension. No matter that the geese will fetch a pretty penny once they get somewhere to sell them. Without coin, they can’t buy fuel, and without fuel, they can’t get offworld. Serenity is stuck.

Historia
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

Ironic
Revisado: 01-15-23
It is interesting that throughout history, the most effective and well liked Kings and Queens have rarely had families that lived up to their caliber. HRH Elizabeth II's family has certainly been a disappointment. I do, however, rather admire Prince Harry for recognizing that, not only does he not have the temperament or personality to be a monarch, he also has no real chance of actually becoming one, and, with that established, he's had the good sense to take himself off and pursue a life that will suit him better. It also amuses me greatly that a man who tells us several times that he hasn't much real interest in books turns out to be a fantastic narrator. I think Harry might have an excellent future as an Audible Reader!

Historia
Nora Devi is a xeno-archaeologist with a complicated past. She has buried more secrets than she’s dug up. Widowed in the recently ended twelve year war between Capitoline and Palantine, she now makes a living as an independent tagger in border space. Captain Liam Kimani could be credited with ending the latest royal war. Instead, he’s blamed for it. Dirty commoners aren’t meant to lay their hands on royalty. He has no regrets.

Historia
At six years old, Terry was told by his headteacher that he would never amount to anything. He spent the rest of his life proving that teacher wrong. At 66, Terry had lived a life full of achievements: becoming one of the UK's best-selling writers, winning the Carnegie Medal and being awarded a knighthood for services to literature. Following his untimely death from Alzheimer's disease, the mantle of completing Terry's memoir was passed to Rob Wilkins, his former assistant, friend and now head of the author's literary estate.

So lovely to revisit Sir Terry through the eyes of his dear friend. I laughed and cried in equal measure. Thank you again, Rob, it’s been a privilege.

Historia
Jillian Cantor revisits the glittering Jazz Age world of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, retelling this timeless American classic from the women’s perspective. Beautiful Little Fools is a quintessential tale of money and power, marriage and friendship, love and desire, and ultimately the murder of a man tormented by the past and driven by a destructive longing that can never be fulfilled.

Awful
Revisado: 02-04-22
I’m guessing the author was not a fan of The Great Gatsby. In this re-imagining, Nick is an idiot, Gatsby and George are psychos, and Tom is just a compulsive philander. The women are not any better - Jordan is a stereotype golf obsessed lesbian, Daisy stereotypically marries Tom for the money when her father dies and his debts leave the family broke. Myrtle and Cath are the fools of the title. There is quite a bit of nervous vomiting. I have no idea why the detective was added to the story; he brought nothing to it. Altogether, this was a total waste of time.

Sad story
Revisado: 02-02-21
This is an interesting change of direction for Star Trek. The politics of the Federation come into play, and the terrible difficulty of attempting to help an old enemy whose culture is vastly different. I look forward to seeing how this story progresses in the upcoming volumes.

Historia
Welcome to Sunder City. The magic is gone, but the monsters remain. I'm Fetch Phillips, just like it says on the window. There are a few things you should know before you hire me: 1. Sobriety costs extra. 2. My services are confidential. 3. I don't work for humans. It's nothing personal - I'm human myself. But after what happened, to the magic, it's not the humans who need my help.

Beautifully crafted story in a fascinating world with characters I can’t wait to know better. Very much enjoyed listening to Luke Arnold tell his tale. I’ll be looking forward to the next installment of Fetch’s adventures and finding out more about Sunder City and it’s people.

Historia
Seventeen-year-old Serendipity "Pity" Jones inherited two things from her mother: a pair of six shooters and perfect aim. She's been offered a life of fame and fortune in Cessation, a glittering city where lawlessness is a way of life. But the price she pays for her freedom may be too great.... In this extraordinary debut from Lyndsay Ely, the West is once again wild after a Second Civil War fractures the US into a broken, dangerous land.

Fun story! Plenty of twists and turns to keep it interesting. The narrator’s voice was a bit too “little girl” for me, and she placed her emphasis oddly in the sentences too often for my taste. Seems to be a good setup for a series, and I hope to hear more from Pity Jones and her friends.

Historia
Nothing ever changes in Sanders. The town's still got a video store, for God's sake. So why doesn't Eli Teague want to leave? Not that he'd ever admit it, but maybe he's been waiting - waiting for the traveler to come back. The one who's roared into his life twice before, pausing just long enough to drop tantalizing clues before disappearing in a cloud of gunfire and a squeal of tires. The one who's a walking anachronism, with her tricorne hat, flintlock rifle, and steampunked Model A Ford.

This is a mighty clever tale and a fun listen. There’s also an underlayment of things to think about. Well worth a credit.
