Excellent story, great character development. I loved the accurate portrayal of PTSD and the growing self-awareness of the main character, Frankie. Well done!

Historia
The runaway success of the microchip may finally be reaching its end. As shrinking transistors approach the size of atoms, the phenomenal growth of computational power inevitably collapses. But this change heralds the birth of a revolutionary new type of computer, one that calculates on atoms themselves. Quantum computers promise unprecedented gains in computing power, enabling advancements that could overturn every aspect of our daily lives.

Historia
Since the dawn of recorded history, humans have felt a kinship with the sleek and beautiful dolphin, an animal whose playfulness, sociability, and intelligence seem like an aquatic mirror of mankind. In recent decades, we have learned that dolphins recognize themselves in reflections, count, grieve, adorn themselves, feel despondent, rescue one another (and humans), deduce, infer, seduce, form cliques, throw tantrums, and call themselves by name.

I HATE THAT ENDING!!!!
Revisado: 02-10-24
The character building in the book is fantastic. It was a very slow start and I almost gave up on it, but was glad I kept going. Overall the book is very good, but I am not even sure I would recommend it to a friend. There are several annoying things about it.
The author’s use of repetitive dialogue, which finally became evident that it was done on purpose, was very annoying. She said,,, then he said, then she said, then he said…. Was very distracting. I wanted to say, “Please cut that out,” she said. “I don’t want to,” he said. “But it’s annoying,” she said.
THE ENDING WAS VERY DISCONCERTING. Like the other annoying structures of the book, it was probably purposeful to keep you thinking and writing alternative outcomes in your head. I don’t always need a neat wrap up, but this was frustrating. It felt like someone stopping a movie right at the climax and saying THE END.

The story was good. The narrator’s style was a bit annoying. He did a kind of lilting sing-song drawl at the end of most sentences.

PLEASE STOP WITH THE RIDICULOUS POLITICAL GARBAGE
Revisado: 02-14-23
Stephen King has been one of my all time favorite authors, but I am now beginning to question that. Out of context, or with weak attempts to throw it in, he adds derogatory political references to Trump, conservatives or Republicans. If King thinks he’s changing people’s politics, he is deluding himself. What he is doing is disrupting an otherwise brilliant story with unnecessary political rhetoric. My guess is his editors couldn’t get him to cut it out because he feels entitled to slam his listeners regardless if it diminishes the quality of the book.
Maybe if unnecessary, biased political references cost him some fame and fortune, he will go back to writing great books and park the politics. Ugh!!
I really like the narrator. Great job!

Narrator killed it
Revisado: 12-14-22
I’m only a few chapters in and I’m getting my credit back. The narrator’s voice is like fingernails on a blackboard. Her interpretation of Marino is so incredibly irritating that I simply cannot listen any further. Within a half hour of listening I sped up the narration a notch and that helped until Marino came into the story. I cannot keep listening. Ugh!!

Never is an extraordinary novel, full of heroines and villains, false prophets and elite warriors, jaded politicians and opportunistic revolutionaries. It brims with cautionary wisdom for our times, and delivers a visceral, heart-pounding story that transports listeners to the brink of the unimaginable.

Historia
James Patterson leads you into the darkest recesses of the mind with this chilling, immersive audio thriller. We meet Brent Quill, a frustrated actor trying to take his game to the next level. When he learns about the intensive Method acting process, he dives in deep—and immediately lands the lead role in a TV series about a brutal serial killer. But when the Method’s controversial techniques start to take over Brent’s psyche, the lines between real life and acting begin to blur dangerously. How far will Brent go to “become” the character?

Wanted to return it but it was free
Revisado: 11-25-22
I am not a fan of this style of performance. It was annoying. Also the content of the story is very disturbing. I love a good thriller but the excessive, disturbing violence was simply very SICK and disturbing. Yes disturbing and sickening. I simply cannot say the word DISTURBING enough. I kept stopping the audio thinking I might be able to keep going if I took a break from the violence. My Audible often starts playing when I start up my car. It did that with my 9-year-old and 5-year-old grandkids in the car. It was right at a horrifying part. I scrambled to stop it.
