Historia
The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world now, but they do not know everything. I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilized society in allowing my strength, my drive, and my focus—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.

Highly Recommend
Revisado: 01-03-25
This was my first exposure to James Islington. I approached this title with an open mind, and it did not disappoint. I loved imagining this world he has created, and drawing parallels from this book to the system of government that I am familiar with. (My government hasn’t found out how to sap my will (yet) but they sure sap my wallet!) I have recommended this book to several people. It was so good, when it ended I immediately started it over, and I have three credits stockpiled! Thank you James! I’m eager for book ii!

Historia
Rowan's attempt to escape Lasher and his pursuit of her and their child are at the heart of this extraordinary saga. It is a novel that moves around the globe, backward and forward through time, and between the human and demonic worlds. Its many voices - of women, of men, of demons and angels, present and past - haunt and enchant us. With a dreamlike power, the novel draws us through twilight paths, telling a chillingly hypnotic story of occult and spiritual aspirations and passion.

Unfortunately, book two of this trilogy was so bad, I don’t even care how the trilogy ends. I suffered through this drivel and am wishing I could go back in time and save the wasted credit and wasted time.

Character development - non existent
Plot twists- I wish
Thrilling scenes- Maybe a few, but not really
Basically, this book is about online harassment. And a cartoon. I could not relate with any of the peripheral characters. The plot was meandering and the vast majority was pretty stale.

Historia
Set in the mountains of southern Appalachia, Demon Copperhead is the story of a boy born to a teenaged single mother in a single-wide trailer, with no assets beyond his dead father’s good looks and copper-colored hair, a caustic wit, and a fierce talent for survival. Relayed in his own unsparing voice, Demon braves the modern perils of foster care, child labor, derelict schools, athletic success, addiction, disastrous loves, and crushing losses.

Good Character Development
Revisado: 01-13-23
I enjoyed this book because it seemed like a fairly honest look at what it would be like growing up in Appalachia country. I enjoyed the different characters, and the authors portrayal of the strengths and weaknesses they possess. Overall, I gave it 5 stars because that’s how much I enjoyed it, but I did give the story 4 starts, only because it ended kind of abruptly.

Predictable, unsatisfying. Don’t waste a credit here. I had to listen to the last few hours on 1.5 playback speed, just so I could confirm that it would end exactly as I predicted it would.

Historia
Two brothers meet at the remote fence line separating their cattle ranches in the lonely outback. In an isolated belt of Western Australia, they are each other’s nearest neighbor, their homes a four-hour drive apart. The third brother lies dead at their feet. Something caused Cam, the middle child who had been in charge of the family homestead, to die alone in the middle of nowhere. So the eldest brother returns with his younger sibling to the family property and those left behind. But the fragile balance of the ranch is threatened.

Historia
For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

I questioned this download because I have already listened to (and loved) I’ll Be Gone in the Dark, however, this covered some new ground that was very enjoyable.
The only downside for me was the volume was inconsistent. I’d have to crank it up to hear the dialogue during one section, and then without warning my speakers would explode with voices that seemed to be shouting at me!

I downloaded this audiobook with no knowledge of the Golden State Killer. Half way through the book, I googled “Golden State Killer” and discovered to my amazement that he was captured that very day!
Michelle McNamara’s words posthumously condemn the man we now know as Mr. DeAngelo. My she Rest In Peace, and may he rot in hell.

This story really played with my emotions. At different times throughout, I loved, hated, and pitied the three main characters.
It was well done.

Historia
Cass is having a hard time since the night she saw the car in the woods, on the winding rural road, in the middle of a downpour, with the woman sitting inside - the woman who was killed. She's been trying to put the crime out of her mind; what could she have done, really? It's a dangerous road to be on in the middle of a storm. Her husband would be furious if he knew she'd broken her promise not to take that shortcut home. And she probably would only have been hurt herself if she'd stopped.

I would not be surprised if the author watched What Lies Beneath, and decided to put her own little spin on it. I had this book worked out in the first 30 minutes.
Also, it is so boring! You only have one perspective and it is the same thing, over and over again. "Poor me. I'm so sad." Well, I'm so done with Paris.
