Historia
Spanning the years 1900 to 1977, The Covenant of Water is set in Kerala, on South India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala’s long-existing Christian community, grieving the death of her father, is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time.

A shared history

I listened to the covenant of water a kind of relived my 70 years as a Malayalee who never lived in Kerala but visited every school vacation and frequently thereafter. Thank you Mr Verghese for such a vivid and eloquent painting of glimpses from my own past.

Historia
Reacher goes where he wants, when he wants. That morning he was heading west, walking under the merciless desert sun — until he comes upon a curious scene. A Jeep has crashed into the only tree for miles around. A woman is slumped over the wheel. Dead? No, nothing is what it seems. The woman is Michaela Fenton, an army veteran turned FBI agent trying to find her twin brother, who might be mixed up with some dangerous people. Most of them would rather die than betray their terrifying leader.

Historia
Journey beneath the diplomatic veneer of international politics and beyond the reach of conventional military operations into the epicenter of clandestine affairs. For the next step in its expansionist agenda, the Kremlin devises a covert coup far more devastating than Bin Laden's most dangerous dream. With the American economy in his crosshairs, Russian President Vladimir Korovin picks suitable pawns and pulls sizable levers, initiating the boldest gambit the world has ever seen.

Historia
Robert Pendleton is a chemical genius with a fertilizer worth a fortune to whoever controls the formula. Not surprisingly, the Bank, his notoriously exclusive backer, wants to keep an eye on its investment. But so does the CIA. And the Chinese government. And a few shadier organizations. So when Pendleton disappears from a conference in San Francisco, along with all of his research, Neal Carey enters the picture.

Not for Don Winslow fans
Revisado: 10-31-18
Don Winslow is one of my favourite authors..i am not sure anymore after having read this book. He should stick to writing American stories. He is totally out of his depth in China and Chinese culture and that is almost half the book. I not only want to return the book, i want to be compensated for my time.

Historia
One hundred thousand years ago, at least six human species inhabited the Earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo sapiens. How did our species succeed in the battle for dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations, and human rights; to trust money, books, and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables, and consumerism?

complete deception of readers
Revisado: 10-17-16
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
if thee was a better plot.
What was most disappointing about Christopher Reich’s story?
that if at all there was a story, it was far fetched and an insult to intelligence.
Any additional comments?
since audible recommended this book to me, i would suggest there is something seriously wrong with your understanding of my taste in books.

Historia
The digital age we live in is as transformative as the Industrial Revolution, and Joshua Cooper Ramo explains how to survive. If you find yourself longing for a disconnected world where information is not always at your fingertips, you may eventually be as useful as the carriage maker post-Henry Ford. It's practically impossible to know where the marriage of imagination and technology will take us (sorry, Betamax and Kodak), and the only certainty is that in the networked world we will only become more intertwined.

the worst tom clancy i have read..
Revisado: 07-25-16
What would have made Tom Clancy Duty and Honor better?
this book is an insult to Tom clancys legacy..has no real story, it is one long chase after another, and by the time chase ends no one knows why the chase was on in the first place.
Has Tom Clancy Duty and Honor turned you off from other books in this genre?
i have read or heard every Clancy book..there should be a law against people like Grantwood piggy backing on Clancy s success, and fooling people.
Which scene was your favorite?
nothing..
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Tom Clancy Duty and Honor?
the whole book
Any additional comments?
thank god for Audibles return policy.
