Nice touristic guide of Florence
Revisado: 05-19-13
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
No, again more of the same, Langdon and Partner chased and in mortal danger, meanwhile exchanging knowledge and showing touristic and other details.
Would you ever listen to anything by Dan Brown again?
I already didn't finish The Lost symbol. No more Dan Brown.
Which scene was your favorite?
no favorite
Was Inferno worth the listening time?
Nothing new on the Divina Comedia, maybe some interesting details on the City of Florence
Any additional comments?
Dan Brown should change his style. Real people don't speak nor act like his characters in this book. Digital Fortress was much better.

Dead beautiful
Revisado: 10-17-10
One of the best books I ever read (listenend to). Yvonne Woon is at the same level as Kate Mosse with her "Sepulchure" and Katherine Neville. It is a fascinating story with surprising end. For the peace of my own mind, I am now going to find out if there is a 7th meditation by René Descartes (His meditations exist).
Just listen to this book you won't regret it.

Historia
In this course, Thomas F. Madden offers a history of the culture that developed out of the ancient Roman Empire throughout the Middle Ages. The story begins at the end of the Roman Empire in the third century AD and continues over the next 1000 years. Professor Madden leads a discussion covering the aftermath and influence of this extraordinary empire. Europeans now saw a world in which nothing stood between them as the last remnant of free Christendom and the ever-growing powers of Islam.

Don't spend your gold
Revisado: 10-02-10
Very poor course on the Byzantine Empire (more or less a survey). Additionally, the Prof"s narration is irritantly hesitating as if he never knows for sure what he is going to say. A waste of money.

Impossible to abridge Katherine Neville's books
Revisado: 01-23-10
I read "The magic Circle" and it certainly is a FIVE STAR book. But abridging Neville's books is impossible. Looking forward for an unabridged version of this audio-book.

Five stars

During the first hour of listening I had three stars in mind, but the story gets better and better.I gave five stars.
Didn't see any provoking language.

Historia
Set in the greyly-lit half-world of espionage, where there is no place for truth or simplicity, The Ipcress File centres upon the mission of a secret agent, 'the first anti-hero in spy fiction'. Beneath the brilliant veneer of wit and fast-paced action the vulnerability of an intelligence agent is vividly portrayed, and there is more than a suggestion of the futility of the spy game, and the defenceless pawns within it.

The Ipcress File
Revisado: 12-19-09
I enjoyed the movie very much.But the book was a big disappointment. After more than 3.5 hours listening to this British nonsense I still didn't find any connection to the movie, not even the name of the hero. I stopped reading. I was already looking forward to "Funeral in Berlin", but I will pass for this purchase.

Certainly not Nelson DeMille's best
Revisado: 10-26-09
Although I am a fan of Nelson DeMille, I didn't finish this one. Too slow, too much patriottisme against a bad KGB.It reminds me of the story behind Rambo and some Chuck Norris movies. Sorry Nelson.
As always, Scott Brick does a good job.

For me it's a page turner
Revisado: 11-23-08
Could hardly stop reading. Good plot, lots of suspense many unexpected twists, sometimes funny.
Ride makes a good connection between quantum physics, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the pyramids and Stonehenge. People who liked reading Steve Berry, Kate Mosse and Lincoln Child, will enjoy this book. It's no waste of money.

The best on Jewish History
Revisado: 10-16-05
As a non Jew interested in history and especially the history of the Middle East, I have only one word for this work: magisterial!
Maybe the sound quality is not the best, but this is abundantly compensated by the objective content of this masterpiece.
