Historia
In 2014, the world witnessed the start of a mysterious series of cyberattacks. Targeting American utility companies, NATO, and electric grids in Eastern Europe, the strikes grew ever more brazen. They culminated in the summer of 2017, when the malware known as NotPetya was unleashed, penetrating, disrupting, and paralyzing some of the world's largest businesses—from drug manufacturers to software developers to shipping companies. At the attack's epicenter in Ukraine, ATMs froze. The railway and postal systems shut down. Hospitals went dark.

Historia
Dog-cognition expert and bestselling author Alexandra Horowitz (Inside of a Dog) takes us on a walk into the scruffy, curious, joyful world of dogs. What does it mean to "own" a dog? Can dogs demonstrate genuine heroism? And what is it like to experience reality primarily through smell? Off Leash is a delightful and surprising look at the deeply familiar, profoundly mysterious animals who walk alongside us.

A dog walk as philosophy
Revisado: 05-04-23
I loved every one of my many dogs through my life. This wonderful podcast celebrates and explores the many facets of this wonderful relationship. Much like a dog walk you have an idea where you want to go. But often it turns into an adventure I'd never had if not for my best K9 buddy.

Historia
When unforeseen circumstances during an innovative—and unsanctioned—commercial asteroid-mining mission leave two crew members stranded, those who make it back must engineer a rescue, all while navigating a shifting web of global political alliances and renewed Cold War tensions. With Earth governments consumed by the ravages of climate change and unable to take the risks necessary to make rapid progress in space, the crew must build their own next-gen spacecraft capable of mounting a rescue in time for the asteroid's next swing by Earth.

Mostly I loved the hard science which is rare in sci-fi these days. For me this was one of my favorite books by Mr. Suarez and I’ve liked all his books.

Historia
Before he was the Gray Man, Court Gentry was Sierra Six, the junior member of a CIA action team. In their first mission, they took out a terrorist leader, at a terrible price. Years have passed. The Gray Man is on a simple mission when he sees a ghost: the long-dead terrorist, but he's remarkably energetic for a dead man. A decade of time hasn't changed the Gray Man. He isn't one to leave a job unfinished or a blood debt unpaid.

Historia
Mindf*ck goes deep inside Cambridge Analytica’s "American operations", which were driven by Steve Bannon’s vision to remake America and fueled by mysterious billionaire Robert Mercer’s money, as it weaponized and wielded the massive store of data it had harvested on individuals - in excess of 87 million - to disunite the United States and set Americans against each other. Bannon had long sensed that deep within America’s soul lurked an explosive tension. Cambridge Analytica had the data to prove it.

linchpin to chaos
Revisado: 05-20-20
Few books give behind the scenes first person looks like this book does. Wonder how we got to this world that nothing makes sense? Here's how they did it and the consortium of actors all with their own agenda who did it. And how with all this noise this has been swept away as another cluster arises because we're so swamped with nonsense we have given up trying to remember, understand and sensemake. This is by design. It used to be only reserved to historical dictatorships and 3rd world countries by military contractors. Not anymore, welcome to the jungle. Things are so broken I'm not sure we can get back to coherence. It does help me to know what happened and who did it though.

Revisado: 01-30-20
This was not up to the par of the rest of the series. I'm a little mystified by these mini books. I liked the Big Pete story, this one hit me flat. Part of it was the narrator. I get they are different stories but I don't think I'm going to invest in the other mini books.

Doesn't get much better....
Revisado: 10-15-19
I've read a lot of books on WWII and still am surprised by how much history I've missed. But Spearhead was so far the best. The way to book weaves in and out of the many lives American and German is seamless. Few books have I ever read that have done that without causing confusion. A remarkable book about remarkable people.

He was in a gang but was trying to change his future, when a board member of the elite advanced academy NEXUS made a snap decision and offered him a chance. Then fate, or an unbalanced genius, offered him another. The Nexus Academy is for the elite trainees from Earth, and now trials from our alien allies, as they teach the future generation how to fight, lead, hack, spy, and many other talents and tactics. Hired by companies, governments, and NGOs, these graduates work to pay off the massive debt their training at the academy accumulates.

my new favorite series
Revisado: 10-10-19
I don't know how this series slipped by me, but I'm glad it popped up while I was looking for other books. This has the right mix for me and one thing I really hate is lead characters doing something stupid just so you can have something go wrong. No stupidity here. I took off one star because I can't believe AJ didn't see something so obvious. If there ever was a book that I wish would be made into a video game it's this one. I hope the final installment shows up soon.
