Historia
Long ago, the wars of the ancient Evil ruined the world. In peaceful Shady Vale, half-elfin Shea Ohmsford knows little of such troubles. But the supposedly dead Warlock Lord is plotting to destroy everything in his wake. The sole weapon against this Power of Darkness is the Sword of Shannara, which can be used only by a true heir of Shannara. On Shea, last of the bloodline, rests the hope of all the races.

I'm Sorry, but Scotty Ruined it :(
Revisado: 12-16-16
I like Scott Brick's narratives for "other" stories however.....just plain old annoying to me for this one.
Maybe just a tad bit too much over the top over done inflections .....dare I include whining and melodramatic?
Overall, I was not held to the story line and kept finding my mind wandering.

Historia
When Dirk Pitt is nearly killed rescuing an oil survey team from a freak wave on Russia’s Lake Baikal, it appears a simple act of nature. But when the survey team is abducted and Pitt’s research vessel nearly sunk, it becomes clear this is no run of bad luck, but the influence of something, or someone, more sinister. In fact, Pitt and the NUMA crew have inadvertently stepped between a Mongolian tycoon and his plans to corner the global oil market, beginning with covert negotiations in China.

I'm a sucker for fiction, Clive Cussler does it well with Dirk and crew. I bite every time I see a new yarn.

Historia
Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

"EPIC!" Just Get it, You Won't Regret It!
Revisado: 07-19-14
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Absolutely, excited to share with others just to hear what they think after they've read or listened to it.
What other book might you compare The Way of Kings to and why?
WoT Series.....just because :-)
Have you listened to any of Kate Reading and Michael Kramer ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Michael and Kate team up, I'm there! Great, superb, skilled, passionate narrators.....the best in their business.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Escape to an Epic Fantasy World and Stay
Any additional comments?
Wonderfully well written (read), exceptionally narrated and a perfect length to help one escape the hectic world in which we live. One of the most engrossing authors I have ever encountered in the thousands of audio books I have listened to. Two thumbs and two big toes up for this series :-)

Would you consider the audio edition of The Fellowship of the Ring to be better than the print version?
Yes indeed!
What does Rob Inglis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Excellent narration of an extremely intricate book. The singing is quite good and must have been very difficult to perform for the various characters and there are many!

Narrator Ruined Story for Me
Revisado: 12-15-12
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Probably not, story is sub-par entertainment. Surreal and un-realistic plot. Slightly exciting, but narration was terrible.
What could Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
The story was fair and probably would have been best if a narrator like Scott Brick or Dick Hill read this story.
Would you be willing to try another one of David Colacci’s performances?
NO (not for this type of story anyway)
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
Possibly
Any additional comments?
Just terrible narration. Sound quality of voice is echoey and high pitched. Sound effects were horribly annoying and I had to turn down the sound many times because of this annoyance. The story was fair and probably would have been best if a narrator like Scott Brick or Dick Hill read this story.

Historia
The world had become used to the metahumans - people sometimes perfectly ordinary, but sometimes quite extraordinary in appearance - who mostly worked with their governments as high-powered peace officers, fighting crime, and sometimes fighting rogue metahumans who had become super-criminals. Then that comfortable world ended in just one terrifying day.

Revisado: 11-27-12
What did you like best about Invasion? What did you like least?
Action and suspense
Would you ever listen to anything by the authors again?
NO
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Terrible narration, feminine voice for a male made me want to toss my food up in many parts. Just ruined this book for me. My opinion Audible should have hired a more masculine narrator for a book like this. Just awful and I will never get any books with this narrator, never!
Did Invasion inspire you to do anything?
NO
Any additional comments?
Horrid narration ruined the book for me

What a Terrific Book
Revisado: 11-03-12
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, because it's full of excitement and wonderful hidden messages that if one has read the Holy Bible can see the similarities. An excellent book from beginning to end plus very well read aloud.
