Historia
Equipped with the entirety of human knowledge, a sentient ship is launched on a last-ditch journey to find a new home for civilization. Trillions of miles. Tens of thousands of years. In the space between, the AI has plenty of time to think about life, the vastness of the universe, everything it was meant to do, and—with a perspective created but not limited by humans—what it should do.

Interesting, but unusually for me and a John Scalzi book, I did not engage. Well done as usual though.

I love this sequel!
The characters are lively and believable, even in the midst of an impossible situations. This book is funny, articulate and touching. The historical details were fascinating and felt authentic (to an American anyway), while the dialog brought the characters alive and kept the story moving. I also loved this narrator. Her very British interpretation made conversations sparkle and enhanced my enjoyment; making me aware that I had missed an often subtle English humor when I first read this the book from an American perspective.

Historia
When the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and screeches to a halt in front of him, it's the start of another far from ordinary year at Hogwarts for Harry Potter. Sirius Black, escaped mass-murderer and follower of Lord Voldemort, is on the run - and they say he is coming after Harry. In his first ever Divination class, Professor Trelawney sees an omen of death in Harry's tea leaves... But perhaps most terrifying of all are the Dementors patrolling the school grounds, with their soul-sucking kiss...

The Triwizard Tournament is to be held at Hogwarts. Only wizards who are over seventeen are allowed to enter - but that doesn't stop Harry dreaming that he will win the competition.

Historia
The Penderwick Sisters are home on Gardam Street and ready for an adventure! But the adventure they get isn't quite what they had in mind. Mr. Penderwick's sister has decided it's time for him to start dating, and the girls know that can only mean one thing: disaster. Enter the Save-Daddy Plan, a plot so brilliant, so bold, so funny that only the Penderwick girls could have come up with it. It's high jinks, big laughs, and loads of family warmth as the Penderwicks triumphantly return.

Another Winner!
Revisado: 05-11-20
This is the best Murder Bot story yet and I have loved the three previous books. Sec Unit keeps evolving as do the supporting characters. Because I like to read about relationships and character interaction I usually skim through the technical stuff, but in these books I catch myself earnestly trying to understand AI networks (which is ridiculous) and coding, and aliens, and space culture (which is just as ridiculous) and enjoying every minute. I look forward to many more Murder Bot stories. Thank you, Martha Wells, for such a fun ride.

Historia
Confirmed grump Eddie Valentino placed the ad. Hotshot 20-something Talba Wallis knew exactly how to answer it. And thus was born the dynamic duo of New Orleans private detectives, one cynical, 65-year-old Luddite white dude with street smarts, and one young, bright-eyed, 21st century African-American female poet, performance artist, mistress of disguise, and computer jock extraordinaire. Think Queen Latifah and Danny DeVito.

Revisado: 05-02-18
I want to be clear that my only reason for rating the performance a four instead of a five, because the reader did an excellent job, was my feeling that she should have sounded more ethnic. Not in accent or dialect, (though that would be fine) but in the force of personality that just oozes from Talba off the page when I read the actual book. However, this series is absolutely worth a listen no matter who reads it.

Historia
Resourceful, adventurous and utterly indefatigable, Sophy is hardly the mild-mannered girl that the Rivenhalls expect when they agree to take her in. Kind-hearted Aunt Lizzy is shocked; stern Cousin Charles and his humourless fiancée Eugenia are disapproving. With her inimitable mixture of exuberance and grace Sophy soon sets about endearing herself to her family, but finds herself increasingly drawn to her cousin. Can she really be falling in love with him, and he with her? And what of his betrothal to Eugenia?

Abridged...
Revisado: 08-28-13
Sadly this audio book is abridged and though the story is still lively and the narrator is good, it doesn't have the sparkle of the original. I loved the unabridged book when I read it years ago and was disappointed when I realized that I had unintentionally purchased this abridged copy. The charm and comedy in a Georgette Heyer book is in the dialogue and even after many years the cutting was obvious and detrimental to the end enjoyment. I got a copy of the book from my local library just to make sure I wasn't being unfair, but the book is still a delightful comedy of manners and totally worth a read....but, in my opinion, not in an abridged version.
I will be more careful about my selections in the future.
