Historia
Valley Forge is the riveting true story of an underdog US toppling an empire. Using new and rarely seen contemporaneous documents - and drawing on a cast of iconic characters and remarkable moments that capture the innovation and energy that led to the birth of our nation - the New York Times best-selling authors Bob Drury and Tom Clavin provide a breathtaking account of this seminal and previously undervalued moment in the battle for American independence.

Historia
They say Black Dow's killed more men than winter and clawed his way to the throne of the North up a hill of skulls. The King of the Union, ever a jealous neighbor, is not about to stand smiling by while he claws his way any higher. The orders have been given, and the armies are toiling through the northern mud. Thousands of men are converging on a forgotten ring of stones, on a worthless hill, in an unimportant valley, and they've brought a lot of sharpened metal with them.

The performer (Pacey) does an amazing job. He's done all the prior books as well as the ones after. this is one of Abercrombie's best books and has a great performance.

Historia
Two hundred years after a nuclear apocalypse forced humanity to flee earth, humans still remember the most feared warriors of that planet - the Paratwa. These are genetically modified killers who occupy two bodies controlled by one vicious mind. The legendary Paratwa named Reemul, known as the Liege-Killer, was the strongest of them all. Now someone has revived Reemul from stasis and sent him to terrorize the peaceful orbital colonies of Earth. Is this an isolated incident, or has the one who unleashed this terrible power announced a gambit for control over the entire human race?

I read this book when it first came out (a long time ago), I remember liking a lot better when I was younger. The audible performance is awful. It seems like the only type of voices he can do are shrill ones. iI's made me reconsider listening to the other 3 books.

The authors words are a little slurry making some names or statements a little hard to understand. Worth you money and time to listen to it.

Historia
Logen Ninefingers, infamous barbarian, has finally run out of luck. Caught in one feud too many, he's on the verge of becoming a dead barbarian - leaving nothing behind him but bad songs, dead friends, and a lot of happy enemies. Nobleman, dashing officer, and paragon of selfishness, Captain Jezal dan Luthar has nothing more dangerous in mind than fleecing his friends at cards and dreaming of glory in the fencing circle. But war is brewing, and on the battlefields of the frozen North they fight by altogether bloodier rules.

Excellent performance of an excellent series.
Revisado: 11-23-21
I was not big into audio books, but now I listen every night. There are some awful performances out there that almost put me off the format (The Long Road home performed by Joyce Bean being one of them). This entire series is performed fabulously. I've listened to the entire series all the way to the current Age of Madness (I believe the most recent trilogy is called). If you've read the books, give the audio ones a try, I don't think you'll regret it

The horns at the chapter breaks are no joke
Revisado: 10-27-21
I fell asleep listening to this on head-phones, there are horns that play at the beginning of each chapter, when they went off it was like a bugler playing "Reveille" and it was being piped directly into my brain. I rolled off the bed onto the floor and started morning P.T.... it's been a long time since I've been near anything like that in 40 years - those horns reached deep into my walled off / medically boosted / shielded sleep cycle and woke my ass up good. (You see, normally i'd be sleeping now, but for some reason, right now, I'm wide awake and jacked up on adrenaline). They were loud, distracting an will wake you out of a NyQuil induced nap / coma and is one of the main reasobs I'm returning this.
Also the actors were speaking so fast, it was like someone was trying to recite the play to me as they walked me to the front door as I was leaving a party. I had no idea who was who and what they are saying.
I also had to explain all that to my girlfriend. I scared the livin bejeebus out of her when I levitated about 6 inches of the bed when the second chapter horns sounded off
I hope there's a better version out there . There has to be, right? I mean, it's fn Shakespeare.

Historia
Clint Emerson is the only SEAL ever inducted into the International Spy Museum. Operating from the shadows, with an instinct for running towards trouble, his unique skill set made him the perfect hybrid of elite and modern day counterintelligence agent. Emerson spent his career on the bleeding edge of intelligence and operations, often specializing in solo missions that took advantage of subterfuge, improvisation, the best in recon and surveillance tech, and even elements of Hollywood disguise to combat the changing global battlefield.

It's an ok book.
Revisado: 08-23-21
The constant asides about where stuff was redacted was funny twice, after that it was annoying. He refers to the British intelligence programs that have been going since the 80s, I'm horrified to realize the US didn't have a program like the British Det until after 9/11. There are some better, less obviously redacted, books about that program in the UK. This book's ok.

Imagine yourself in Cape Cod in early fall with the steady swells of the waves falling against the sand and the gentle rhythmic chirp of crickets in the dunes. Unlike canned nature sounds created in a studio, renowned acoustic ecologist Gordon Hempton gives you the real deal. He travels the world recording remarkable locations that capture the essence of the place itself.
