Historia
Hoping to stem the growing tide of unrest, Chancellor Valorum convenes an emergency trade summit on the planet Eriadu. A group of Jedi Knights is sent to protect the delegates from possible terrorist attack, but what should have been a simple peacekeeping assignment turns out to be a mission into the heart of a political firestorm. For shadowy forces are at work, pulling the strings in a bid for power that could leave the Republic reeling. And the chancellor is only the most visible victim.

Not very good
Revisado: 11-03-23
This narrator is not very good. Monotone and difficult to follow, his character voices are not very good, some sounding extremely similar to one another. The other Star Wars narrators are much, much better. Luceno's story, I'm sure, was just fine, but the narrator spoiled it.

terrible
Revisado: 04-09-23
Filled with continuity errors. Leia is portrayed as childish, volatile, and unintelligent. Also poor narration.

Historia
The forces of the Empire stand at the brink of total collapse. But they have saved their most heinous plan for last. First a plot is hatched that could destroy the New Republic in a bloodbath of genocide and civil war. Then comes the shocking news that Grand Admiral Thrawn, the most cunning and ruthless warlord in history, has apparently returned from the dead to lead the Empire to a long-prophesied victory.

Not terrible, just disappointing.
Revisado: 02-13-23
This entry is one of the more boring novels by this author, or at least, the most boring of the four I've read. Also, the voice actor messed up most of the voices. Very strange, because Marc Thompson is usually fantastic. Especially distracting was the poor impersonation of Thrawn, the main villain of the book. Presumably this recording was captured before "Star Wars: Rebels" gave Thrawn a voice in canon, so this is understandable, but still extremely distracting to listen to the wrong voice come from an established character. (Marc Thompson does an excellent Thrawn voice today)

Historia
What happens when you learn to communicate better with everyone? No doubt you’ve had to endure a painfully awkward conversation, more than once in your life. Maybe it was a stranger, a colleague, or a date. Maybe it was a group discussion. You found yourself breaking a sweat, not knowing what to say. The more time passed, the more tense you became. You thought about all the communication books you’ve read in your life and wished you had them with you…to knock yourself unconscious as a way out of the conversation. The best thing about the whole situation was the moment it ended.

"Just be a natural extrovert"
Revisado: 07-03-22
There are a few small kernels in here, but not worth your time to read. I don't know who this book is for, it seems to be aimed at someone who is extremely intelligent and observant, capable of reading their own and others body language, and yet has never communicated with a human in their life. The Author is obviously very extroverted naturally, and lacks a conceptual understanding of how different brains vary in perception.

We are stuck, stymied, frustrated. But it needn't be this way. There is a formula for success that's been followed by the icons of history - from John D. Rockefeller to Amelia Earhart to Ulysses S. Grant to Steve Jobs - a formula that let them turn obstacles into opportunities. Faced with impossible situations, they found the astounding triumphs we all seek.

Naive and self contradictory
Revisado: 07-03-22
Listening to this audiobook is like being ear-beaten by a philosophy student at a party. The authors lack of experience is painfully ever present, while attempting to hide behind flowery quotations made without context.

Historia
Jan MacKell provides a detailed overview of the business between 1860 and 1930, focusing her research on the mining towns of Cripple Creek, Salida, Colorado City, and similar boomtown communities. She used census data, Sanborn maps, city directories, property records, marriage records, and court records to document and trace the movements of the women over the course of their careers, uncovering work histories, medical problems, and numerous relocations from town to town. She traces many to their graves, through years filled with abuse, disease, narcotics, and violence.

unlistenable..
Revisado: 04-24-22
it's clear that quite a bit of research and effort went I to writing this, but the organization is confusing and the narrator is so monotone and boring that I feel like I'm listening to a college student reciting notes they quickly took from a textbook.

Incredibly Slow and Boring
Revisado: 02-19-22
it's OK, but it's easily the worst book of the series. Only one interesting thing happens and it's pacing is incredibly slow and boring. if I weren't invested in the series I would not finish this book.
