After a shootout claims the life of his partner in a condemned tenement building on Pearl Street, Detective John Tallow unwittingly stumbles across an apartment stacked high with guns. When examined, each weapon leads to a different, previously unsolved murder. Someone has been killing people for 20 years or more and storing the weapons together for some inexplicable purpose. Confronted with the sudden emergence of hundreds of unsolved homicides, Tallow soon discovers that he's walked into a veritable deal with the devil.

Warren Ellis thinks deeply and entertainingly
Revisado: 09-07-15
Narrator Does a fine job of delivering Ellis' work. Would listen to more of his narrations.
One toe in science fiction, one toe in police procedural, and yet another toe in social/historian commentary, this three-footed tale of deep rooted 《spoiler》 and mass murder is thoughtful and thrilling. I'm a huge fan of Ellis and this book doesn't change my opinion.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 260
The Great Recession that began in 2007 is now more than four years old - and counting. Some 24 million Americans are unemployed or underemployed, and at recent rates of job creation we won’t be back to normal levels of employment until late this decade. This is a tragedy. Do we have to accept it? "No!" is the resounding answer given by Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman in this call to arms. We have seen this situation before and we know how to fix it; all we lack is the political will to take action.

Hopeful! Sadly, the leaders don't read PK
Revisado: 07-30-12
Would you consider the audio edition of End This Depression Now! to be better than the print version?
The nice thing about the print version is the ability to jump back and forth in the text to re-familiarize yourself with issues pertaining to your current position in the book.
However I wouldn't be able to read the book during my commute or organizing the basement, so I think the audio book wins this one.
What other book might you compare End This Depression Now! to and why?
Heh, previous PK books.
What does Rob Shapiro and Paul Krugman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Shapiro does a nice job. He use of inflection and tone keeps the read entertaining and never sleep-walks through the performance.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Not an option, sadly. But I could have!
Any additional comments?
Krugman is always good.
