In the year AD 3000, Earth is a dystopian wasteland, plundered of its natural resources by alien conquerors known as Psychlos. Fewer than 35,000 humans survive in a handful of communities scattered across the face of a post-apocalyptic Earth. From the ashes of humanity rises a young hero, Jonnie Goodboy Tyler. Setting off on an initial quest to discover a hidden evil, Jonnie unlocks the mystery of humanity’s demise and unearths a crucial weakness in their oppressors.

It is a very long grind but it has politics, intrigue, economics and intergalactic war. What's not to love?

In the year 2045, reality is an ugly place. The only time Wade Watts really feels alive is when he’s jacked into the OASIS, a vast virtual world where most of humanity spends their days. When the eccentric creator of the OASIS dies, he leaves behind a series of fiendish puzzles, based on his obsession with the pop culture of decades past. Whoever is first to solve them will inherit his vast fortune—and control of the OASIS itself.

Almost 5 star worthy

Loved everything but the first chapter. Too arrogantly anti religion and anti capitalist. Decent book.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 16,747
One hundred thousand years ago, at least six human species inhabited the Earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo sapiens. How did our species succeed in the battle for dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations, and human rights; to trust money, books, and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables, and consumerism?

Actually not a bad book

I still don't know what this guy thinks law is founded upon. He says natural law doesn't exist so law is determined by arbitrary concepts of right and wrong?

Often considered the foundation of political liberalism, John Locke's Two Treatises of Government was first published anonymously in 1689, in the wake of England's Glorious Revolution. In The First Treatise of Government, Locke refutes the idea of divine monarchy, while The Second Treatise of Government articulates Locke's philosophy of government, which he based upon his theories of natural rights and the social contract.

What did you love best about Two Treatises of Government?
I discovered that John Locke has a wonderful sense of humor!
What other book might you compare Two Treatises of Government to and why?
There are so many books that draw from this book for their material. Most "conservative" books quote from this one several times in order to make their case for limited government.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
yes, but it is a lot of information to take in all at once so it took me a couple weeks to get through and process what I learned.
