Did you know that most of our dinosaur fossils were discovered because two grown men absolutely hated each other? It’s true! Rivals! Frenemies Who Changed the World is a riotous audio exclusive, like if Monty Python taught your history class. Each volume of four 30-minute histories will dig into the petty name-calling and grumbling grudges that led to many of the world’s greatest advancements, all delivered with a cheeky sense of humor. Choose sides: Cope or Marsh, the jerks who discovered so many dinosaurs; Hamilton or Burr, whose rivalry fueled American politics; and many more....

Incredibly Fascinating while Comical
Revisado: 07-06-19
At fist II didn't expect much from this book ... but wow ! .... I was so wrong. The entire performance was like watching a play on feuding history.The flow from one eye opening rivalry to another was perfect. The author must be commended for his historical presentation and insight to stories where I obviously did not really have all my facts. Presented in a way that kept my attention and even smiles throughout the performance. My thanks to the author and performers for an enjoyable experience.

Three missions later, now famous and permanently rich, Robinette Broadhead has to face what happened to him and what he is...in a journey into himself as perilous and even more horrifying than the nightmare trip through the interstellar void that he drove himself to take!

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 428
Eons before the birth of the Roman Empire, there was a civilization dedicated to the sciences of Earth, sea, and sky. In the City of Light lived people who made dark plans to lay waste to their uncivilized neighbors using the very power of the planet itself. As the great science of their time was brought to bear on the invading hordes, hell was set loose on Earth. And the civilization of Atlantis disappeared in a suicidal storm of fire and water.… Now history threatens to repeat itself.

The Tesla Legacy, set in Newcastle, Muswellbrook, Scone and the mysterious Burning Mountain in New South Wales, is an action-packed, pace-driven thriller woven with intrigue and a delightful touch of humour and romance, and an ending guaranteed to send chills down your spine.

Hard to understand. Couldn't get passed chapter 1
Revisado: 12-30-12
Would you try another book from Robert G. Barrett and/or Dino Marnika?
To distorted and a Aussie narrator made it difficult to listen to. Audio poor. Not what I even expected.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Depends more marketing social media books but I will listen to the sample very carefully.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Dino Marnika?
Definitely not Dina
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointed
Any additional comments?
I went by the title. Can't judge by the cover alone
