Historia
The Seven Storey Mountain is the extraordinary spiritual testament of Thomas Merton (1915-1968), a man who experienced life to its fullest in the world before entering a Trappist monastery. By the end of his life, he had become one of the 20th century's best-known and beloved Christian voices. This autobiography deals...not with what happens to a man, but what happens inside his soul.

Had heard of Merton of course but this is my first exposure to him. Will definitely be looking for more.
Perfect narrative as well.

Not just a language book.
Revisado: 08-06-19
I had no idea what to expect when I started this and was rewarded with a little jem. While Youness addresses language learning he also drops in his approach to life in general. This approach to language acquisition will be effective in other areas as well. Well done first effort.

Historia
Phil Tarsus is a dreadful instrument of State justice. He's an Inquisitor, a man who makes a living rooting out and executing those people who have been charged with treason. Guilt or innocence mean little to him - he has quotas to fill after all. Yet when he unwittingly stumbles upon a secret involving someone high up in the new American government, he becomes a target himself. Unfortunately for Phil, there's nowhere to run that the government can't find him.

I tried to like it.
Revisado: 09-15-18
I wanted to like this story. I really did. I too am a Christian thus although I can quibble about some points of theology that part did not trouble me. What I found offensive was the short shrift he gave the genocide visited on native Americans and it appears that anyone who is left of his political views is a communist. Be warned.

Historia
With authoritative reporting honed through eight presidencies from Nixon to Obama, author Bob Woodward reveals in unprecedented detail the harrowing life inside President Donald Trump’s White House and precisely how he makes decisions on major foreign and domestic policies. Woodward draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand sources, meeting notes, personal diaries, files, and documents. The focus is on the explosive debates and the decision-making in the Oval Office, the Situation Room, Air Force One, and the White House residence.

Not Normal!
Revisado: 09-15-18
Just about finished this. One of the few books I have ever binged listened to. Woodward is a excellent respected and a respected person in his field. One can be sure that what he presented is as factual as he could be. That is what makes this a frightening warning. I put this challenge to this who support this president. How can this be normal or even acceptable?

Historia
Tornadoes, cyclones, tsunamis… Weather can be deadly – especially when it strikes without warning. Millions of Americans could soon find themselves at the mercy of violent weather if the public data behind lifesaving storm alerts gets privatized for personal gain. In his first Audible Original feature, New York Times best-selling author and journalist Michael Lewis delivers hard-hitting research on not-so-random weather data – and how Washington plans to release it.

A great review of just how important NOAA and the NWS is to our nation, they provide vital services without fanfare or even the expectation of a thank you. Also a look at what the current administration is trying to do to it. A must on your playlist.

Was not really sure what to expect when I started. What I got was a great examination of duty and honor in a military setting. I you like military science fiction, even if it is not actually you usual fare, do not hesitate to get this one.

Historia
The Founding Fathers tried to protect us from the threat they knew, the tyranny that overcame ancient democracy. Today, our political order faces new threats, not unlike the totalitarianism of the twentieth century. We are no wiser than the Europeans who saw democracy yield to fascism, Nazism, or communism. Our one advantage is that we might learn from their experience.

I doubt I can add anything new to what has been said already. He put into words what I have been seeing and fearing. My one regret is that those who need to read/hear this audiobook are the very supporters of our Tyrant wannabe. Even if the did I have no doubt they would just reject it as the wining of a loser snowflake. For the rest of us, we have been warned and armed.

Historia
Our universe is ruled by physics, and faster-than-light travel is not possible - until the discovery of The Flow, an extradimensional field we can access at certain points in space-time that transports us to other worlds, around other stars. Humanity flows away from Earth, into space, and in time forgets our home world and creates a new empire, the Interdependency, whose ethos requires that no one human outpost can survive without the others. It's a hedge against interstellar war - and a system of control for the rulers of the empire.

I saw the negative reviews and in this case have to take exception. I throughly appreciated the humor in this story. After going through a few things I needed it and am looking forward to a sequel.

To the Kleese, the Earth is nothing more than a planet full of conscripts to fight in their numerous wars of aggression. The Kleese are one of three large Galactic Empires that control the majority of the galaxy. To them, Earth is an extremely dangerous planet due to the aggressiveness of the humanoid species that inhabits it. The humans that inhabit Earth will make excellent conscripts, but something must be done to prevent them from expanding out into the galaxy.

Good start. Not a intricate plot or deep character development but a fun listen nonetheless. Hesitated after reading several reviews talking about the "speed reading". I did not find the narrator did duct to follow.

I picked this up on sale not knowing anything about this author. This is not even my usual kind of story. All I can say is wow. I was hooked from the beginning and stayed that way throughout. His pacing and timing is spot on and he made this story seem all to real. Beware. You will want to allow time to listen and do not miss anything. Everything ties in!
