As a bank executive, Herb Knoll was known as a man who could get the job done. But when Knoll lost his wife to cancer, he found few resources that could help him recover. The more he learned about the plight of widowers, from high suicide rates to physical and emotional problems, the more he became motivated to create an audiobook with fellow widowers for fellow widowers.

Religious parts ruined the book for me
Revisado: 02-17-24
An otherwise great book was ruined by the inclusion of the Abrahamic religious chapter and references. Mr. Knoll forgets that not all widowers are followers of these religious paths, and as such, he puts off those of us who don't. He could have made this book truly universal simply by leaving out these references. A shame, as it can be of great help to all widowers.

Awful Book
Revisado: 12-17-21
A very bad take on the Dickens' tale. Do yourself a favor, if you want a well written and preformed book abot Jacob Marley, get Jacob T. Marley by R. William Bennett. I'll be looking to get a refund on this drivel.

Following the surge of interest and pride in Celtic identity since the 19th century, much of what we thought we knew about the Celts has been radically transformed. In The Celtic World, discover the incredible story of the Celtic-speaking peoples, whose art, language, and culture once spread from Ireland to Austria. This series of 24 enlightening lectures explains the traditional historical view of who the Celts were, then contrasts it with brand-new evidence from DNA analysis and archeology that totally changes our perspective on where the Celts came from.

Poor history
Revisado: 07-11-20
As an Historian, I am shocked and appalled that this was allowed to be a Great Courses audiobook. Poorly researched, with many controversial findings presented as full fact. Shame on Dr. Paxton.

History has many disturbing episodes that few of us would care to experience ourselves. So many of these stories are sad but true. Sometimes, after such incidents, dark and evil energies remain in these places of horror for decades to come, haunting all that come near. Unfortunately, if you're not lucky enough, things can be even worse than this.

Poorly presented, with little info on each story, and no data regarding any investigations. Just more pabulum for the masses without any follow-through. Boring and a waste of time.

Ruins the MR James stories
Revisado: 07-11-20
Just awful retelling of MR James' fantastic ghost stories. The authors should be ashamed of themselves. Save your money and buy the MR James books instead of these modernized craptastic versions.

Extremely Racist
Revisado: 07-11-20
Many stories in the heyday of Pulp/Weird Tales were racist, but these stories are so overtly racist they make Lovecraft's racism look tame.

Poorly written & read
Revisado: 05-16-20
If you're looking for a well written and well researched book of allegedly true paranormal stories you will need to look elsewhere. Additionally, the narrator's voice is too gravelly to enjoy and he has a tendency to mispronounce names and words. I can now understand why the audiobook was so cheap to buy.

Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden is Chicago's only openly practicing wizard. He is also dead broke. His vast knowledge and magical skills are unfortunately matched by his talent for making powerful enemies and alienating friends. With little more than his integrity left, he accepts an offer of work from Lt. Karin Murphy of Chicago's Special Investigations Unit. He wants to redeem himself in Murphy's eyes and make enough money to quiet his rumbling stomach.

Fantastic author and fantastic reader
Revisado: 03-04-13
I have read all of the Dresden Files books, and love them so much I wanted to get a copy I can bring with me to listen to anytime. James Marsters truly brings the world of Harry Dresden alive in his readings of Jim Butcher's works. His voice is now the one I associate with all the characters. Great job on this one and all the ones he reads. I am hoping that he will get a chance to read Ghost Story, as I will not get the audio version of the book without him as the voice actor.

The finest reading of this story ever
Revisado: 01-02-13
Tim Curry shines as the narrator of this beloved short story, doing the justice Dickens' tale deserves. His voice acting skills have always been top notch, and here they shine. Unlike abridged versions of this classic tale, he preforms the entire book, giving the story its depth sorely lacking in many other audio book, and most movie/TV adaptations. The Alastair Sim move version comes closest to the story, and remains a favorite of mine year in-year out, but Tim Curry's narration has taken its place as the best "performance" of this story ever. Bravo Mr Curry!
