Of Relevance to All of Us

Revisado: 10-02-23

Extremely well written, narrated and relevant. To anyone who is or has experienced pain or loved someone in pain, this book is an explosive outing of the War on Drugs which has indeed become the War on All of Us. A must read book.

Disappointing

Revisado: 01-13-23

Harry is sadly a very sick human being. What 40 year old man still refers to his mother as ‘Mommy’ , whines over a dust up with his brother (also known as “he broke my necklace and I landed in the dog’s bowl”), talks about his frostbitten ‘todger’, admits to killing 25 enemy soldiers and refers to them as just chess pieces he took off a board? I found this book to be in very poor taste, written by someone whose only goal in life is revenge. How very, very sad but I’d rather not waste my time on any more of this soap opera.

Story ok but narration is horrible

Revisado: 11-16-22

Why do the male lead voices all sound cartoon like? Story is alright but I couldn’t listen to the narrator. This is also NOT Rimmer’s best book either.

Mischaracterized time period

Revisado: 07-15-22

Yes, historical fiction is fiction but the time period should be accurately depicted. Lenin’s Russia is depicted as a rocking place with cozy country homes, plenty of good food and a Baywatch atmosphere down at the Black Sea. But then the Motherland is invaded and upstanding young Russian men and women are soldiers. I had to quit at the part where a young rape victim is comforted by the upstanding young Russian soldiers! That did it for me. Russia’s troops were feared because they raped every woman and girl in Berlin. Berliners were feverishly trying to reach the British or American held sectors so they would not be raped and abused by the animal like Russian soldiers. I could not finish this book.

Excellent

Revisado: 05-23-22

I’m not sure what other reviewers are talking about when they say there was nothing “new” in this book or that the authors narration was awful because I couldn’t disagree more with both statements. I learned quite a bit about the inner workings of the Royal Family and this is definitely the best book I’ve ever read on the topic. I highly recommend this audio book.

Unbelievable

Revisado: 09-09-21

This story is utterly unbelievable and cliche as you can get. Same formula as The Martian - just a regular guy turns out to be something incredible- like save the world. A high school science teacher is the only man in the world who can save us all. The Dutch character who runs the show is so ridiculous. Save your money

Disappointed

Revisado: 09-01-21

The story line was a creative one, but King just didn’t bring it home for me. There was too much that was cliche in this title. The bad guy who’s really a good guy, or is he? The book was very redundant for me and the character of Alice was hard to buy into. We basically have a Bonnie and Clyde story, sort of. I am just disappointed, feeling that King could have made this a more believable tale.

Don’t waste your money

Revisado: 01-25-21

This book is not objective in the least. It was written and narrated by Meghan’s ear piece and ‘official biographer’, Omid Scobie. I am so sorry I purchased it. At the time I didn’t understand who Omid Scobie is. He looks like a teenager. Very disappointed.

A rehash of every other book written about John’s

Revisado: 12-10-20

This book has a very misleading title. Most of it is about John’s boyhood and days with the Beatles. Nothing new here.

Book with an agenda

Revisado: 06-24-20

This man suffers from tunnel vision, but my main complaint is that much of what he claims is absolutely unsubstantiated. Just another salvo in the witch hunt for innocent people with intractable able pain who have no other options. But I guess all the back slapping for writing a supportive book for all those doctors seeking redemption and forgiveness who dropped their patients in need must be worth it. You’re a small man.
