Great Addition to the MH Series a
Revisado: 03-22-25
This is the best monster Hunter memoirs so far! I don’t usually like female narrators for this series, but this one is admittedly, an exception. She is terrific and really captures the fun of the monster hunter narrative.. I hope that Larry writes another story with this character. Highly recommend recommended.

Unbelievably bad and unsympathetic characters: kept thinking it would be redeemed - it wasn’t. If you want a pessimistic view of life - read this book.

Since a very complex book with many characters.
Revisado: 05-14-24
This book is a less than complete and to the Asian saga series. It was satisfying to meet some old characters from Noble House. However, the book lacked the ingenious plot, twist, and humor of the series. It is also a very long book that takes quite a while to gear up to Clavell‘s usual plot intensity. If you love the Asian series, you might as well finish it with this book. On its own, the book is less than perfect.

Historia
When the neighbours in question are the proud empires of Klatch and Ankh-Morpork, those are going to be some pretty large garden tools indeed. Of course, no-one would dream of starting a war without a perfectly good reason...such as a 'strategic' piece of old rock in the middle of nowhere. It is after all every citizen's right to bear arms to defend their own. Even if it isn't technically their own. And even if they don't have much in the way of actual weaponry.

Worst, narration, ever!
Revisado: 11-07-23
It is difficult to tell whether this would be a good book because their narration was so terrible. We have listen to several dozen Pratchett bucks, and the narrator makes all the difference. this one could not capture the comedic sense of the text at all. It was very flat. please do not let him narrate anymore.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time.

Disappointed
Revisado: 02-19-22
I was disappointed in this follow up book by Sullivan. The story is a grinding tail with few humorous or happy moments. The spiritualism is unfocused. Would not recommend. The narration is absolutely flat with all voices sounding about the same.

Historia
Violette Toussaint is the caretaker at a cemetery in a small town in Bourgogne. Casual mourners, regular visitors, and sundry colleagues - gravediggers, groundskeepers, and a priest - visit her to warm themselves in her lodge, where laughter, companionship, and occasional tears mix with the coffee she offers them. Her life is lived to the rhythms of their funny, moving confidences. But her routine is disrupted by the arrival of the local police chief, who insists on scattering the ashes of his recently deceased mother on the gravesite of a complete stranger.

Difficult to get through
Revisado: 08-28-21
Found this book hard to handle. The French angle was a barrier to some extent. The biggest problem was the cast of very unlikable characters. Hard to understand their motivations. For me, nor an enjoyable read.

Historia
Acclaimed actress Claire Danes burnishes an epic story of heroes, gods, and monsters in a groundbreaking translation of The Odyssey, the first great adventure story in the Western literary tradition. When the wily warrior-king Odysseus sets off for home after the Trojan War, he doesn’t realize this simple undertaking will become a perilous journey of 10 years. Beset at every turn, he encounters obstacles, detours, and temptations—both supernatural and human—while his wife Penelope fends off would-be suitors desperate to take the throne.

Worst Narration Ever
Revisado: 05-02-21
Terrible production. Narrator lisps throughout. The story drones on with parts that would be exciting and heroic - just boring. Really disappointing. Audible - you are so much better than this!

A beautifully written terrible book
Revisado: 12-05-19
This is a very depressing book about ecological tragedy and human tragedy. It is climate change a manifesto that celebrates the destruction of human relationships for greater value of individual potential. I feel like I walked into a trap laid by the authorTo advance her own agenda. Also, she is an author, not a narrator.

Total Garbage!
Revisado: 09-07-19
The story was so convoluted and inane. It wondered aimlessly. The “writers” angle was boring. The performance made the whole experience that much worse. Watching a soap opera would be a better use of your time.
