Opens your eyes to the bigger picture

Revisado: 07-05-20

The slivered almonds that garnish my salad creation may have a storied origin.

Can the way humans grow and supply food be sustained is questioned from many angles in this story. Well worth a listen if sustainability is part of your mindset

Fascinating!

Revisado: 11-27-18

A look into the past at some things we take for granted or passé in our current times but in the Victorian era were considered new, exciting, provocative or even taboo.

Laughter is the best medicine

Revisado: 11-06-18

A fascinating insight into how laughter truly is the best medicine. I'm sure others who've written reviews for this audio documentary have used the same saying, but this shows how looking into one's experiences, both bad and good, seeing the amusing side and telling others about it helps some to psychology heal.

Mandatory listening for the X-Files fan

Close your eyes and you can see the characters interacting with each other, visualise the special effects. An excellent listen.

a Must for any Star Wars fan of the original movie

Revisado: 01-31-18

Set during episode 4, the book provides insight into the events of Star Wars from characters that might not have been the focus of the movie. Humorous, poignant and interesting the 40 stories provide a certain point of view that we may not have considered.

Timothy Zahn at his best.

Revisado: 07-11-17

Fans of the Heir to the Empire series will not be disappointed with this. It effectively reinserts Thrawn into official Star Wars canon while also describing his origins and cunning.

Almost anything can be related to Star Wars

Revisado: 09-21-16

The author links every day events and issues to Star Wars. Some tenuous, some enlightening.

It rehashes the movie from Rey's point of view

Revisado: 08-15-16

Very little extra is learned about Rey in this book. What little is learned is very quickly spoiled so I won't mention it here. This book is actually meant for pre-school children and this fact is not mentioned in any of the descriptions at Audible.com, otherwise I would have given it a miss.

Also, I'm used to the high production values of sound effects and sound track included in other Star Wars audio books, but this is sorely missing from this title.

Only listen to it if you're a die hard Star Wars fan. I am, but was still disappointed.

If you like the Clone Wars, thus is a must read

Revisado: 08-01-15

A story of falling, redemption and love, this tale fits nicely into existing Star Wars The Clone Wars canon. Although a little heavy on the romance, this is to be expected when the story is about Quinlan Voss and Assage Ventress working closely together.
