I like his videos both short and long on YouTube. He has a good speaking voice. Positive message on kindness which is definitely lacking in today’s world.
The other 90% of the book is the most worthless MBA middle-of-the-road Facebook success group advice you’ve heard everywhere. “Manifesting” “iteration” “consistency” it all makes an appearance.
Oh hey don’t forget a chapter on AI! 🙄
I’m not sure what I expected, I guess that it’d at least be entertaining if the advice wasn’t actually useful?

Historia
A huge international corporation has developed a facility along the Juan de Fuca Ridge at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean to exploit geothermal power. They send a bio-engineered crew - people who have been altered to withstand the pressure and breathe the seawater - down to live and work in this weird, fertile undersea darkness.

Protagonist is a moron who basically offed himself. Not reading the next book. Somehow I knew he was doomed from the beginning.

Historia
With his characteristic eyebrow-raising behavior, Richard P. Feynman once provoked the wife of a Princeton dean to remark, "Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman!" But the many scientific and personal achievements of this Nobel Prize-winning physicist are no laughing matter. Here, woven with his scintillating views on modern science, Feynman relates the defining moments of his accomplished life.

Funny, and interesting. The 60’s were a very different time. I noticed the women seemed to not be concerned about random men attacking them for no reason and didn’t seemed to be filled with hate for men as well…

Historia
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Amusing amateur-villain story
Revisado: 07-24-24
I think I would have liked it if the main character suddenly became more melodramatic and evil… or didn’t trust his enemies for literally no reason. It seems like this book could have been much better. Missed opportunity. Still entertaining of course.

Historia
Not every danger comes in the form of a mega-threat like a Titan. Some predators are a lot cozier...more personal. When one such creature threatens an independent tutor, Harry Dresden must shake off the blood and dirt of his most recent battles and rise to the occasion, even when it turns out that the new predator is far more dangerous and connected than first appearances would suggest.

Historia
The tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included on the recording are several shorter works. The Ainulindalë is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Númenor at the end of the Second Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age.

Boring AF. 1/2 way through and I’m done.
Revisado: 06-26-24
Perfect for putting yourself to sleep. JFC it’s so boring. I expected it to be boring to some degree, and I realize it’s not really a story but background notes, but damn.

Historia
In a scrap heap within an abandoned factory, the greatest invention in history lies dormant and unused. By what fatal error of judgment has its value gone unrecognized, its brilliant inventor punished rather than rewarded for his efforts? In defense of those greatest of human qualities that have made civilization possible, one man sets out to show what would happen to the world if all the heroes of innovation and industry went on strike.

Cool sci-fi version of the Count of Montecristo
Revisado: 03-14-24
Cool sci-fi romance version of the Count of Montecristo. John Galt character redundant and unneeded. Rearden seems to be an almost irrelevant character also. I guess one person inventing all the things seemed too difficult to believe?

Historia
Half a century after the Doomsday Battle, the uneasy balance of Dark Forest Deterrence keeps the Trisolaran invaders at bay. Earth enjoys unprecedented prosperity due to the infusion of Trisolaran knowledge. With human science advancing daily and the Trisolarans adopting Earth culture, it seems that the two civilizations will soon be able to coexist peacefully as equals, without the terrible threat of mutually assured annihilation. But the peace has also made humanity complacent.

Stunning conclusion
Revisado: 02-05-24
A good end to a great series. Nothing more to add. However I must say more to reach the minimum. The idea that dimensions have been lost due to warfare is cool.

Historia
This near-future trilogy is the first chance for English-speaking listeners to experience this multiple-award-winning phenomenon from Cixin Liu, China's most beloved science fiction author. In The Dark Forest, Earth is reeling from the revelation of a coming alien invasion - in just four centuries' time. The aliens' human collaborators may have been defeated, but the presence of the sophons, the subatomic particles that allow Trisolaris instant access to all human information, means that Earth's defense plans are totally exposed to the enemy.

First rate Sci-fi
Revisado: 01-29-24
Overall, very good. Dislike humanities’ overall lack of planning. The wall facer project was mostly pointless. Why not send out colonists? Why would anyone assume victory was certain when next to nothing was known about the enemy? It seems strange that an author from China, the home of Sun Tsu would expose the entire united space fleet to attack all at once never mind all the other strategic blunders. As I listened I had to assume this was all on purpose so the plot could happen. These are just nitpicking though, as I said, entertaining book overall.
