Esclarecedor

Revisado: 09-12-19

Resumir 6000 años de historia en un poco mas de 8 horas no es tarea fácil. Para mi ha sido muy esclarecedor, especialmente la parte de los judíos sefaraditas y la situación en España y Portugal, de hecho, encontré este libro después de una visita al antiguo barrio judío en Lisboa; la guía nos contó la historia y yo quise saber más; este libro me dio las repuestas.

La descripción y detalles del holocausto es muy buena y ajustada a la realidad que me contaron mis abuelos y mi padre, que fueron sobrevivientes de los campos de concentración.

La locución es pobre, monótona y sin inflexiones, casi parecía leída por una máquina y no un humano, si no fuera porque me interesaba la historia hubiese abandonado el libro muy rápido. Por otro lado, nos es fácil leer tablas y gráficos, y tampoco la pronunciación de muchos de los nombres de lugares apellidos de personas. Pienso que en el caso de las tablas o listados habría que buscar una forma mas ingeniosa de leerlos o resumirlos en palabras.

El final del libor donde lista descendientes famosos de los judíos me pareció que está de sobra.

Original or copy?

Revisado: 09-12-19

When you read a lot and in several languages,you discover coincidences! This book is one of them:

There is a book in Spanish called Un Capricho del Destino [A Quirk of Fate] by Kristel Ralston. The plots are identical, the only difference is that in one the protagonist is a waitress and instead of having a brother, she is a single mother. It is so the same as the gallant carved wood and there was a temporary employee in one of his hotels ... they are so similar that even the partner of the gallant is a lesbian. Is it the original or is it the copy?

Es la copia o el original? Copy or Original?

¡Cuando uno lee mucho y en varios idiomas, descubre casualidades! Este libor es una de ellas:
Hay un libro en inglés que se llama Not Quite Dating Not Quite Series, Book 1 de Catherine Bybee. La trama es idéntica, la única diferencia es que la protagonista es una mesonera y en lugar de tener un hermano, es madre soltera. Es tan igual que el galán tallaba madera y se hiso pasar por empleado temporal en uno de sus hoteles… son tan parecidas que hasta la socia del galán es lesbiana. ¿Es la copia o es el original?

Kept me awake until finished.

Revisado: 04-08-19

It is hard for me to tell what is better, the story or the performance. This is one of the best narration I heard from Scott Brick.
The only problem with this series is that read a book in a weekend almost not sleeping until I finish!

Already downloading the next in the series.

Amazing, Thrilling and Mysterious

Revisado: 01-13-19

This book was an enjoyable surprise!

A new author that is at the same time a senior person with a scientific background and magic background created an incredible novel that combines well-documented science fiction thriller, love story, magic mystery, conspiracy theories, and police action. The co-author, Maya Kaathryn Bohnhoff, is one of the best science fiction writers of our times. The result is an amazing book. Richard Ferrone performance is outstanding!

I listened to the complete book in one full day. I was unable to put it down until the end.

I am just buying the kindle version to give it as a present to my son that also loves magic and lives in Chicago!

I hope to read more of this.

Amazing!

Revisado: 12-02-18

looking for something to read I found this marble. Some place said that this is a book for young people age 12-17, so now I am a 67 years old kid that got hooked with a 15 hour audiobook and finished it in a weekend.

Looking forward for the next book in the series.

Could not stop listening

Revisado: 05-29-18

This is my first from Jack Carr and I hope there will be more.

I listened the book during the Memorial day weekend and it kept me awake until I finished.

Master performance by Ray Parker.

Interesting sci-fi and economics theory book

Revisado: 04-02-18

Artemis is an excellent entertainment sci-fi book. I liked the scientific contents as it was very well documented and explained, but I have not seen in any review comments about the economics theory trying to tell that pure capitalism without controls can divert to and authoritarianism controlled by the mafias. In the end, all the history was to avoid a mob-controlled government for the city.

I listened to the Spanish version of the book, and the narration was good. I prefer neutral accent than the Spain accent

Could not stop listening

Revisado: 04-24-17

I listened to the book in a weekend! The reader is outstanding, The story very well documented.

This book is a very nice combination of science fiction and thriller.

Near the end, I was able to predict the outcome, but anyway it did not stop me to keep listening

Looking forward to reading more of this author and listen to more books narrated by Kevin Pariseau.
