Historia
After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

Excellent!!!
Revisado: 05-15-22
Excellent story. Excellent characters. Excellent Narration. I double checked the author shortly after starting this book because the writing had a Fredrick Backman feel to it. I also recognized the narrator as the same one who narrates the Backman novels. I loved this as much as my favorite Backman novels. Downside: this has left me with a serious book-hangover.

Hallmark-esque, Poor Narration
Revisado: 10-21-21
Overall an OK story. It was sweet and heartfelt, but often sappy and cliche. Mostly likable characters.

Not what I was expecting, but very engaging.
Revisado: 08-01-21
It took me about 1/3 of this book to become really invested in the characters and understand where the story was headed, but it picked up from there. I think I was expecting a bit more humor or quirkiness, but as the characters developed and the story proceeds, it became quite engaging.

Historia
Something called the “Blue Juice" is coming. For all of us. Luckily, me (Chip Collins), Pete, Nikola Tesla, Bobo, and FBI Agent Gina Phillips are here to kick its ass, and send it back to last Tuesday. Maybe. Or maybe we'll fail, and everyone in the multiverse is doomed. (Seriously, you might want to get that underground bunker ready.) Either way, I've got to get home to Julie and find out – woah, I'm not about to tell you that right here in the book description! TMI, dude.

#2 of this series and as fun as #1

Another thoroughly enjoyable and engaging adventure with the continued humor from "Where the Hell is Tesla". The author is the perfect narrator for these stories.

I found the journal at work. Well, I don't know if you'd call it work, but that's where I found it. It's the lost journal of Nikola Tesla, one of the greatest inventors and visionaries ever. Before he died in 1943, he kept a notebook filled with spectacular claims and outrageous plans.

The story captured my attention from the beginning and continued to do so throughout the book. The Audio narration definitely added to the experience. This had me outright laughing at time - gotta love Chip & Pete!

Very Interesting Story and Great Performance
Revisado: 04-21-21
I only picked this up based on the recommendation of a member post on the "Hear For It" FB page. This is not a genre or topic for which I would normally give a second glance. But I was looking for a quick 'in-between' audio for the day - AND, it was a free borrow for members - how could I go wrong?
I was surprised at how much I enjoyed hearing Tyler's story and have a tremendous amount of respect for the young man. The story kept me interested and the performance format was terrific.

Very Enjoyable, Awesome Narration
Revisado: 03-27-21
This was my kind of story - WW1 historical fiction and characters I want to get to know even more. I consider this 'mystery-light' with enough intrigue to keep the story moving. I will continue with this series.

Historia
Somewhere in Arizona’s Chocolate Mountains lie the Big Maria Mine and a wealth of gold lost for 100 years. There’s only one problem: Those mountains are now the home of the US Army Proving Ground, the world’s largest active artillery range. But for Harry, Ricky, and Frank, three down-at-the-heels guys with few dollars but plenty of dreams, the gold offers each of them a chance for a new life. Are scuba diving through an underwater ghost town; facing down a hungry mountain lion; doing the hesitation waltz across a minefield; matching wits with potheads, pit bulls, and bikers; and braving the might of Uncle Sam’s full arsenal worth it?

Crazy Adventure and Crude Humor - GOOD STUFF

Adventure and smarmy humor - what's not to love?!
Revisado: 12-22-20
Awesome story! The excellent narration added to the depth of characters and the overall story.
I agree with some of the other reviews that there are crude parts and foul language - so if you find that offensive, you may want to take a pass on this.
But I disagree with comments that this is a 'guys' book. I am a middle-age female who keeps cursing to a minimum, but still really enjoyed this..

Change keeps stalking Edward Stanton. He and his new wife, Sheila, have retreated to his small house in Montana after an unsuccessful attempt at operating a motel in Colorado. That failure has left wounds, especially for Sheila, and now they face a bigger challenge: pregnancy and impending parenthood.

Favorite of this series
Revisado: 01-06-19
I read all 3 books of the Edward Series. I just finished Edward Unspooled. Overall, I give the series 4.5 stars. I enjoyed growing along with Edward and his expanding circle over the course of the series. I liked 600 Hours of Edward and this one the best. I recommend the entire series for anyone who enjoys this story.
