Historia
Returning to the territory he so brilliantly explored in his masterful New York Times best seller American Gods, the incomparable Neil Gaiman offers up a work of dazzling ingenuity, a kaleidoscopic journey deep into myth that is at once startling, terrifying, exhilarating, and fiercely funny, a true wonder of a novel that confirms Stephen King's glowing assessment of the author as "a treasure house of story, and we are lucky to have him."

I enjoyed every minute of the story, and the performance.
Lenny Henry was an excellent choice for this.
Nice work!

Historia
Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.

deliberately paced, revealing its secrets in its own time
Revisado: 07-23-21
Really a splendid story. Creates atmosphere and context very deliberately and refuses to be rushed
I found by the end that it was worth it to me to spend the time the book required.
If you want a quick read with a quick and obvious ending, it may not be for you.
i found it metaphysically honest also A lot of rewarding subtleties here.

Historia
Peter Grant is facing fatherhood, and an uncertain future, with equal amounts of panic and enthusiasm. Rather than sit around, he takes a job with émigré Silicon Valley tech genius Terrence Skinner's brand new London start up - the Serious Cybernetics Company. Drawn into the orbit of Old Street's famous "silicon roundabout", Peter must learn how to blend in with people who are both civilians and geekier than he is.

Historia
Lydia has always known she has no power, especially next to her infamous and more-than-slightly dodgy family. Which is why she carved her own life as a private investigator far away from London. When a professional snafu forces her home, the head of the family calls in a favour, and Lydia finds herself investigating the disappearance of her cousin, Maddie.

A good and entertaining time

Good fun. The characterizations are accurate.
Entertaining plot. Made me curious where the author would take it in future volumes.

Historia
In the milky mountains, upon the lofty summit known as Altar Peak, stand the spacious and somber ruins of a monastery once famous as the ARK. Traditions would link it with an antiquity so hoary as the Flood. Numerous legends have been woven about the Ark, but the one most current on the tongues of local mountaineers among whom I chanced to spend a certain summer in the shade of Altar Peak is the following: Many years after the great Deluge, Noah and his family, and his family’s increase, drifted into the Milky Mountains.

Great story but...
Revisado: 05-28-19
I know this story well.
the narrator has a great public speaking voice and may be an accomplished public speaker but he doesn’t seem to be a voice actor or at least he doesn’t seem at all to connect with the material and the reading is often barely out of a monotone. Some words are also misread. Emotions of some dialogue is just odd.
I don’t think this is a well-produced audiobook.
I can’t manage to listen to more than the first two chapters.
