Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 660
At just 16 years Danny Dunn has everything going for him: brains, looks, sporting aptitude - and luck with the ladies. His mother steers him towards a university education, but with just six months of his degree to go, he signs up for the AIF, driven by a desire to serve his country and plain wanderlust. Danny serves in South-east Asia, spends three and a half years as a POW, and returns a broken man, embittered and facially disfigured. He is scared and overwhelmed by the need to sort himself out, to find out who the hell he is....

Yes! Quite a few! Humphrey Bower is by far the best narrator around!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, too long!!
Any additional comments?
Ending a bit disappointing - too sad with 2 people commiting suicide - was this necessary? Rest story great!

Is there anything you would change about this book?
have some sort of chronological sequence.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
It's ok. Story is very haphazard - goes from one story to a totally different one.

In August of 1914, the British ship Endurance set sail for the South Atlantic. In October 1915, still half a continent away from its intended base, the ship was trapped, then crushed in the ice. For five months, Sir Ernest Shackleton and his men, drifting on ice packs, were castaways in one of the most savage regions of the world. Lansing describes how the men survived a 1,000-mile voyage in an open boat across the stormiest ocean on the globe and an overland trek through forbidding glaciers and mountains.

Here is the story of two families, branches of the Solomons, transported to an alien land. Both branches eventually grow rich and powerful. But through three generations, the families never, for one moment, relinquish their hatred for each other. This novel is also the story of Australia, from its beginnings to its coming of age as a nation.

In The Mastery of Love, don Miguel Ruiz illuminates the fear-based beliefs and assumptions that undermine love and lead to suffering and drama in our relationships. Using insightful stories to bring his message to life, Ruiz shows us how to heal our emotional wounds, recover the freedom and joy that are our birthright, and restore the spirit of playfulness that is vital to loving relationships.

food for thought
Revisado: 12-16-12
Where does The Mastery of Love rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The content makes you think, and you do learn from it (though it's very black & white)
What didn’t you like about Jill Eikenberry and Michael Tucker ’s performance?
Michael's performance is good, but I found Jill's voice very annoying. Wouldn't buy another audio book by this narrator.

The four fires in this story are passion, religion, warfare, and fire itself. While there are many more fires that drive the human spirit, love being perhaps the brightest flame of all, it is these four that have moulded us most as Australian people. The four fires give us our sense of place and, for better or for worse, shape our national character.
