Historia
For thousands of years, Homer's ancient epic poem the
Iliad has enchanted readers from around the world. When you join Professor Vandiver for this lecture series on the Iliad, you'll come to understand what has enthralled and gripped so many people. Her compelling 12-lecture look at this literary masterpiece -whether it's the work of many authors or the "vision" of a single blind poet - makes it vividly clear why, after almost 3,000 years, the
Iliad remains not only among the greatest adventure stories ever told but also one of the most compelling meditations on the human condition ever written.

Perfect companion to any edition of The Iliad

This is the perfect companion to reading The Iliad regardless of translation. Professor Vandiver’s course gives us an extensive analysis of the epic.

Composed from exhaustive research and hundreds of personal interviews, the Stay Awhile and Listen series divulges the fated meeting that brought the two Blizzards together, the clashes that tore them apart, and their transformation from grassroots democracy to corporate empire. At the center of it all - Diablo, a hack-and-slash adventure through the darkest recesses of Hell that changed online gaming forever.

Fun story about the origins of Blizzard
Revisado: 10-25-18
Fun story about the origins of Blizzard, focusing on Diablo (the first one) and some Warcraft.
I'm looking forward to part 2 which it's supposed to come out in 2019.

Historia
In the real world, twenty-one-year-old library sciences student Tina Anderson is invisible and under-appreciated, but in the VR-game Forever Fantasy Online she's Roxxy—the respected leader and main tank of a top-tier raiding guild. Her brother, James Anderson, has a similar problem. IRL he’s a college drop-out struggling under debt, but in FFO he's famous—an explorer known all over the world for doing every quest and collecting the rarest items.

Loved it! Nostalgia +10!
Revisado: 08-06-18
Ever since I read Fortune's Pawn I always expect to have an awesome time reading a book by Rachel Aaron and I haven’t been disappointed yet. This one she co-wrote with her husband Travis Bach and I hope this is not the only series that they write together because it was awesome. They’re a great team.
I’m a former World of Warcraft junkie, so this book felt like it was written for me. I even had a dream that I was a character inside World of Warcraft and I was fighting some old bosses. This book gave me Nostalgia +10.
The character development and world building were excellent, I felt like I was inside that world and got to know the main characters and see them grow in this journey.
I’m looking forward to the next one in the series.

Historia
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

I EXPECTED MORE DUCT TAPE!!!! But I still loved it
Revisado: 11-21-17
I may be one of the few who doesn’t think Jazz Bashara is Mark Watney. After watching dozens of Andy Weir interviews, I think Mark Watney is Andy Weir (or at least, has his personality), Jazz Bashara has a bit of Andy Weir’s humor in her, but she’s not Mark Watney.
Now, with that out of the way :) I loved this book. I was tempted to start listening to the whole thing again as soon as the book ended. Rosario Dawson makes the story come alive, she was the perfect choice.
I highly recommend it if you love fun/funny sci-fi.

Fun mystery!
Revisado: 11-11-17
I loved this book. It grabbed me on the first page, it was almost impossible for me to put down. The audiobook narrator does a fantastic job giving each character their own different voice.
It was a very fun read, it kept me guessing until the last chapter.

The story is great (and a bit weird at first) and the narrators are just perfect.

Fast paced with complex characters
Revisado: 08-08-16
What did you love best about Kill Process?
I loved that this story is fast paced, the main character feels real and all the technical details are accurate.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Angie Benenati, the novel’s protagonist, she is not your typical technothriller main character. She is a complex character, she has depth, she has a background story, she has motivations and limitations. She feels real. I wish I could meet Angie and become her BFF :)
What does Jane Cramer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She makes the characters feel alive. She's a great narrator.
