Over the top politics!!
Revisado: 12-22-24
I like the books, and I get most of them from Amazon Plus, so it doesn't cost me any credits.
The problem I have with CJ Box is he over does it with his conservative politics. It ok with a little of it, but he piles it on. Books shouldn't be Fox News vs MSNBC (I don't listen to either one of them). We are all too divided as it is, and I don't want to listen to books that makes me feel even more so.
He would be a great propagandist of the Chinese government, making our government the people's enemy. I have a real problem with people trying to make money by dividing us even further.

Like some other reviewers I thought it started slow (first 2 hrs out of the 23+ long story) but once I passed that point I liked it. If I had to order it again I would.

Historia
The Charisian Empire, born in war, has always known it must fight for its very survival. What most of its subjects don’t know even now, however, is how much more it’s fighting for. Emperor Cayleb, Empress Sharleyan, Merlin Athrawes, and their innermost circle of most trusted advisers do know. And because they do, they know the penalty if they lose will be far worse than their own deaths and the destruction of all they know and love.

I like this book and I recommend it! I am now starting book 6 which I got from my library so I can't review it individually on Audible and I just started it but I warn you that the constant change of narrators is really painful especially in book 6. Make sure you read the reviews book 6.

Historia
Forty years ago in China, marriage was universal, compulsory, and a woman's only means to a livelihood. Enter the one-child policy, which despite its horrors, resulted in China's first generations of urban only-daughters - girls who were raised without brothers and pushed to study, achieve, and succeed as if they were sons. Fast forward to the present, where in an urbanized economic powerhouse, enough of these women have decided to postpone marriage - or not marry at all - to spawn a label: "leftovers". Unprecedentedly well-educated and goal-oriented, they struggle to find partners.

A great book for both Women and Men
Revisado: 02-24-18
What made the experience of listening to Leftover in China the most enjoyable?
Listing to the story's about what the young woman and men of China are going though was very insightful...I kept on wanting to hear more!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Leftover in China?
My girl friend is Chinese and I am 2nd generation American Italian (in that order) she has been in the US for 27 years and we are both older. Her sibling, lives in China and has one child, a daughter, who exactly fits the description of the woman described in this book. She speaks passable English, very intelligent, ambitious, beautiful, well connected family, 28 years old and no boy friend. I think of myself as very knowledgeable but I was so wrong thinking that it would be like shooting fish in a barrel for her to find a mate in China until I heard Roseann Lake's words and what she had to say about her situation!
Which scene was your favorite?
Too many to pick one....it was like eves dropping on woman talking about relationships and how to deal with men (alway fun to hear)....it's no secret that when it comes to woman men for the most part are just plan stupid!!
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Yes it made me laugh more then once!! When I think of the miscalculations of the leaders in China and other places who over reacted to the birth rate, well intentioned men who really hurt a lot of men and women. Physically and mentally, that is quite sad, as a father of a married daughter of this age my heart goes out to these families!
Any additional comments?
This book needs to be translated into Mandarin!

Poor Installment
Revisado: 09-17-17
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
I'm a guy maybe woman might have a slightly better option of it.
What could Eric Flint and Virginia DeMarce have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Since this is the first one the I am aware of that Ms. DeMarce was involved with she would be the best one to answer that question, it seemed disjointed and the whole thing about the Ram play was just a waste of time.
Which character – as performed by George Guidall – was your favorite?
George Guidall as usual was great but no character stood out and that I felt was one of its problems.
What character would you cut from 1634: The Ram Rebellion?
Not character but most of the silly things in the early chapters about the Ram

Historia
In 1987, Miri Ammerman returns to her hometown of Elizabeth, New Jersey, to attend a commemoration of the worst year of her life. Thirty-five years earlier, when Miri was 15, and in love for the first time, a succession of airplanes fell from the sky, leaving a community reeling. Against this backdrop of actual events that Blume experienced in the early 1950s, when airline travel was new and exciting and everyone dreamed of going somewhere, she paints a vivid portrait of a particular time and place....

A 4 year old's perspective!!
Revisado: 10-31-15
Where does In the Unlikely Event rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I rank it in the upper middle.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Elizabeth....the City!!!
What does Kathleen McInerney bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I liked her tone....I thought she brought the characters to life!
If you could rename In the Unlikely Event, what would you call it?
Elizabeth....in the shadows of tragedy!!
Any additional comments?
I was born in Elizabeth almost five years after the author and my baby sitter brought me and her son to the 1st cash site....it is one of my earliest memory's and I can truly understand how it impacted the author. Hearing about the place where I lived until I was 11 was pleasant and sad at the same time but I am glad I listened to it. Thank you Judy Blume!!!

Historia
Seventy years ago, the interstellar supercarrier Ark Royal was the pride of the Royal Navy. But now, her weapons are outdated and her solid-state armour nothing more than a burden on her colossal hull. She floats in permanent orbit near Earth, a dumping ground for the officers and crew the Royal Navy wishes to keep out of the public eye. But when a deadly alien threat appears, the modern starships built by humanity are no match for the powerful alien weapons.
