Wow just no..

Revisado: 12-29-23

I listened to both these books because two of my good friends, who usually give good recommendations, really liked them. I am severely doubting their choice of books now. There was some world building and a plot line I was hoping would go somewhere in the first book that made me hopeful. The lack of character development with the side characters and the terrible and continually whiny main character made just finishing the second book hard. Probably would not have finished the book if it wasn’t audio and we weren’t on a 16 hr road trip. It’s was a raunchy, poorly written, dime store romance loosely covered by the mirage of being a fantasy fiction book. Please don’t waste your time if you like true fantasy books and enjoy a plot line and good characters that actually develop.

Should you read the book?… And find out the little bit more about what is possible

Revisado: 09-15-22

Short answer is yes. Slightly longer answer is. good solid story, told by interweaving narrative and research. I’m is in attaining even though I studied the subjects both physiological and cognitive my entire adult life. I’ve learned quite a few things; new items and different perspectives on previous knowledge. Recommended for serious outdoor professionals, military, and endurance athletes hobby or serious.

Another great telling

Thoroughly enjoy her style and the characters. She has such a way of bringing them alive and bringing the emotion into the Telling.

Poor substitute for NYT digest pulled 1/1/2022

Revisado: 02-12-22

Audible recently (1/1/2022) dropped the WaPost and NYT digests from their catalog. I’ll be transitioning full time to NPR / NPROne app and BBC radio for my listening to news. A real shame as the Two Digests were really well done. Despite some overlap it was good to get different viewpoints from WP and NYT. Poor on production and not nearly the breadth of topics that we once enjoyed.

Middling substitute for the WaPost Digest

Great content and author. Some skippy spots on recording

Revisado: 07-15-21

Great content and a fan of this author. And highly recommend this book. Interesting perspective on interactions between folks and especially how he posits that ‘recovery ‘ from PTSD for veterans is linked to how accepted they are when coming home. Not a ‘thank you for your service’ quiet awkward silence but a bon a fide appreciation for the efforts and here’s how we hear you and help you fold back in to society. Would definitely like to see how appreciative folks are after the town-hall yearly speaking out series.

Good overview and make the case in Boeckman‘s in emerging technologies

Revisado: 01-23-21

This book came highly recommended by friend, Peers, and leaders in the military. At the beginning I thought it was nothing new but changed my tune about halfway through. The Internet of things is pretty far off even for the civilian and tech sector but he makes a great case for why the military and government should care in defense of the nation. Without getting too political he shared some insider knowledge from working with Senator McCain. I would’ve liked to heard more about the limit of the best quantity of data versus where we are with the data science, and some of the same problems that China is having (as the greatest competitor in the space)... is that no small feat. Overall, highly recommend for anyone interested in the future of warfare, operations in the information environment, and improving our national security.
