Smart and Emotional

Revisado: 05-11-18

Really smart interesting idea that is tightly constructed and beautifully written and performed. I really enjoyed the variety of subplots and the overall story benefits greatly from its smaller parts.

Thought Provoking

Revisado: 03-17-18

An amazing and different take on the thevblack experience. with of a middle road that offers the love of MLK with the fervor of Malcolm X without making harsh criticism of either.

I really like this book.

Revisado: 02-13-18

I really love this book and the world that it created. I thought all of the characters were interesting and deep and even though it's switched between it least five different points of view throughout the novel I didn't find it hard to follow at all. Andrew's performance was really top-notch each of the characters felt different. My only complaint was with how one of the characters was written near the end of the book. I felt like it made his character Arc less important, but you should still read it and I highly recommend this book.

Interesting and enjoyable.

Revisado: 01-12-18

this is an incredibly interesting book about the way our language has changed and it also gave me a great defense for why I don't care for Shakespeare while I love Audible and do a lot of my reading here this is the first book that I can probably say that I wouldn't have enjoyed as much printed hearing the authors say all of the esoteric and archaic words that he brings up is much better for comprehension in my opinion

Fantastic, but...

Revisado: 11-13-17

First of all, I enjoyed this book and thought that Sam made an excellent case for reason-based morality. The first few chapters where he lays out his thinking for the moral landscape and talks about the philosophical debate between Deontology and Consequentialism was extremely interesting and I would have been 100 percent satisfied if the book continued this way and he had made more of a case against Deontology, but that didn't happen. He instead decides to make a case that religious morality is flawed and superseded by reason. This is all well and good but it was the better part of the second half of the book. Instead of throwing his intellectual weight against Kant he throws it against religion yet again. I think his arguments were good and think that if he had split the second half between the railing against religion and dismantling Kant's Deontology the book would have been better off for it and I would have given it 5 stars. All so he is a great speaker and he did his book justice with his performance. AUDIBLE 20 REVIEW SWEEPSTAKES ENTRY

Raising the Bar for Strange Sci-fi

Revisado: 09-27-17

I think this novel is fantastic. This is my third Peter Clines novel. I began with 14 and after that read The Fold, and I have to say this is absolutely a step above those already excellent works. 14 was an excellent mystery and The Fold followed suit both were well done and left me hundry for more. I had been waiting in hopeful anticipation for this novel since I first heard of it and it was more different and plainly better than I expected. I refuse to give anything away but this novel is a treat for any Sci-go fans and long time readers of Clines' work. His ability to create an intriguing and thought-provoking story are on full display here. More so than in his past work though I felt extremely attached to the Characters of this novel, not that Nate and Mike aren't good Characters, I loved them, but Eli and Harry are the back bone of this story and they work together wonderfully. This novel also had a slightly different tone. Where as in previous work Clines had focused on a darker narrative bordering on horror this novel was a thriller in the strangest way. I often found myself gigling or smiling while I listened to it and during one scene I nearly cried. I can't recommend this book enough. The Story is wonderful and I almost can't imagine a Peter Clines novel without Ray Porter, although there was one accent that seemed to come and go one one character, but that could just be me. You won't regret this purchase.

A fantastic novel. a wonderful performance.

Revisado: 05-25-17

I loved every minute of it. Between this and 14 Peter Clones has become on of my favorite authors. A novel filled with mystery, intrigue, and excellent sci-fi and just a tinge of horror. Ray Porter hits it out of the park as always and remain one of the best narrators around. Highly recommend reading his other novel 14 before this one!

Better than volume one

Revisado: 05-17-17

The story was still kind of rushed, but the performance was much better. The random noises were much less prominent in the first.

Good, not great, but glad to have it.

Revisado: 05-17-17

I enjoyed the story, but if you don't have at least some knowledge of the battletech universe it would be incredibly hard to follow. The 4 chapters are divided into smaller sections followings three war fronts and and several other locations throughout the galaxy. The narration was fantastic besides the sound effects that made it sometimes difficult to hear the narrators. Some of these sound effects were really cool but the amount that were bland or disruptive outweighed the positives.
