Historia
On January 28, 1742, a ramshackle vessel of patched-together wood and cloth washed up on the coast of Brazil. Inside were thirty emaciated men, barely alive, and they had an extraordinary tale to tell. They were survivors of His Majesty’s Ship the Wager, a British vessel that had left England in 1740 on a secret mission during an imperial war with Spain. While the Wager had been chasing a Spanish treasure-filled galleon known as “the prize of all the oceans,” it had wrecked on a desolate island off the coast of Patagonia.

Loved this

Sure, the narration was a little dramatic but I think the material warranted it as opposed to a stiff "just the facts ma'am" style of oration.
Overall the book was well worth the credit.

Historia
Four decades after it first shook the nation, then the world, William Peter Blatty's thrilling masterwork of faith and demonic possession returns in an even more powerful form. Raw and profane, shocking and blood-chilling, it remains a modern parable of good and evil and perhaps the most terrifying novel ever written.

Just get it and enjoy. The author's narration alone was well worth the credit and the story was interesting, tension filled and sad (at times).
I've been putting off getting this title for years, glad I finally got around to it. Will listen to it again.

Like going home...
Revisado: 05-17-20
I listen to a lot of books, some good, some bad but most are, at best, ok. I'm not saying that this is the best book I've ever listened to but as a life long fan of Stephen King this one felt like going home, warm and comforting and wonderfully weird, classic King. Loved it. Narration was great.

Historia
Six Women of Salem is the first work to use the lives of a select number of representative women as a microcosm to illuminate the larger crisis of the Salem witch trials. By the end of the trials, beyond the 20 who were executed and the five who perished in prison, 207 individuals had been accused, 74 had been "afflicted", 32 had officially accused their fellow neighbors, and 255 ordinary people had been inexorably drawn into that ruinous and murderous vortex, and this doesn't include the religious, judicial, and governmental leaders.

Didn't make it past the character intros
Revisado: 04-20-20
I'm not saying this title is bad, I have no clue as I quit pretty early in but potential buyers should know this is a semi fictionalized in parts, super deep dive of the people that took part in the witch trials that I just did not have the attention span for. The narrator's voice is clear but monotone and uninteresting. I'm sure this book has its merits, I'm sure there are tons of folks that will love this but if you're bored semi-easily then proceed with caution.

I'm glad it was practically free
Revisado: 11-12-19
Thankfully I got this as an audio add on to the kindle version. I'm getting old, time is precious so with that being said, I wish I could get my 7 hours back. Why I listened until the end I don't know. I can say that if I used a credit i'd have exchanged it. Convoluted story, BORING characters and the whole designer shoe call out nonsense during tense moments thing is an insult to women.

Not very good... at all. Read all of the reviews
Revisado: 03-25-19
I only got this because I listened to" the Huntress" first and figured this might be good as well. My second mistake was not reading ALL of the reviews... This book reads like a bad romance novel intertwined with a very mediocre spy novel. The characters were stereotypes mostly, they were dialed in, cliche'. I struggled to finish and returned this rag as soon as I was done, waste of a credit otherwise.

This book is a collection of writings that encourage, inspire, and motivate a deeper relationship with God. It is dedicated to the listener. For this book to be in your hands means that you are a worshiper. You are one who desires for the rains in the heavens of the kingdom to fall upon your heart, spirit, and soul. You are no different than me. In our humanness, we search for life, we search for hope, we search for love, and we search for more of God.

Very Good
Revisado: 07-30-18
Great book if you are looking for that boost to get closer to God. It’s a good book to meditate on and just soak in, especially if you need encouragement and shot of faith during your day. It’s very devotional and supernatural at the same time. Recommended to those who love devotions and are seeking God daily.

Historia
In 2014, Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes was widely seen as the next Steve Jobs: a brilliant Stanford dropout whose startup “unicorn” promised to revolutionize the medical industry with its breakthrough device, which performed the whole range of laboratory tests from a single drop of blood. Backed by investors such as Larry Ellison and Tim Draper, Theranos sold shares in a fundraising round that valued the company at more than $9 billion, putting Holmes’s worth at an estimated $4.5 billion.

Great read!
Revisado: 06-21-18
After a string of duds by (usually) great authors this book gripped me from beginning to end. I finished this book in 2 sittings and was engrossed the entire time. Wonderfully written and narrated expose' of what can happen when power driven egos, greed and naiveté combine. I'm sure the whistle blowers and the author saved lives.
Get this book, you won't be sorry.
