Enjoyable preview for book of vignettes

Didn't work for me
Revisado: 02-13-15
I'm not that deep into history, so it was something of a stretch to think I'd like this one. However, Gettysburg was a pretty big deal and the book was free, so I thought I'd give it a try.
The story and narration were okay I guess, but I just couldn't get myself to stay with it.
Bottom line, if you're not into history you probably won't enjoy this book. If you're into history, it might be a good one and it's probably worth your time to try it.

Gone was my interest
Revisado: 02-13-15
The story started out well enough - not very original, but not terrible. What was terrible was the character development. Totally predictable and unlikeable characters wandering around doing stupid things during the end of the world.
Even though this is a free book, I recommend not wasting your time on it.

Historia
Nabeel Qureshi describes his dramatic journey from Islam to Christianity, complete with friendships, investigations, and supernatural dreams along the way. Providing an intimate window into a loving Muslim home, Qureshi shares how he developed a passion for Islam before discovering, almost against his will, evidence that Jesus rose from the dead and claimed to be God. Unable to deny the arguments but not wanting to deny his family, Qureshi's inner turmoil will challenge Christians and Muslims alike.

A compelling story of one man's spiritual journey
Revisado: 02-13-15
This is a fascinating and touching story told well by the man who lived it. Quresh shares what it's like to grow up Muslim in the US and helps those of us who know little of Islam better understand that religion and the people who follow it.
Strongly recommended for anyone of faith who genuinely wants to learn about the Muslim faith and how it relates to Christianity.

Not what it promises

Too much of the narrator, not enough of the sharks. If you want insights and information from the sharks, you're better off watching the show.

Why would anyone listen to this???
Revisado: 02-13-15
Susie Bright is perhaps one of the most dull and uninteresting people I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing. From almost her first statement, I found her completely and entirely lacking. It would be more exciting to hear a tennis ball roll into a ditch than listen to Bright talk about almost anything.
Yawn.

Historia
Stop me if you’ve heard this one. A thief, a candlemaker, an ex-mercenary, and a pig farmer walk into a trap…and what happens to them is no joke. When Riyria is hired to retrieve a jester’s treasure, Royce and Hadrian must match wits with a dwarf who proves to be anything but a fool. Difficult choices will need to be made, and in the end those who laugh last do so because they are the only ones to survive.

I was completely uninterested in the characters from the first paragraph. Yes, it had some early action and yes it had me wondering what was going on; but I was never involved in teh story and couldn't get myself to continue listening.
in a word: ungripping.

A great between-the-seasons story!
Revisado: 02-13-15
The perfect story for listening between seasons 2 and 3, it continues where season 2 ends and tells what happened before season 3 begins. Lewis tells the story perfectly so you're completely ready for the first episode of the next season.
Even if you've watched season 3 (and beyond), this is an excellent listen. Highly recommeded for Homeland fans, if you're not a Homeland fan you won't have any idea what's going on.

Historia
Mild-mannered Walter Mitty is a day-dreamer who escapes his anonymous life by disappearing into a world of fantasies filled with heroism, romance and action. This well-known and beloved tale has launched its famous protagonist into the cultural lexicon, warranting his inclusion in English-language dictionaries and countless anthologies. Stiller's imaginative performance as Mitty is the perfect re-introduction to the classic character and a great preface to the upcoming film, for longtime fans and new listeners alike.

This is a great performance of Thurber's story. Stiller does a great job portraying Mitty's odd and captivating world. Whether you see the movie or not, I recommend listening to this audio story.

Not worth the price
Revisado: 02-13-15
Yes, this book costs nothing to download. But it does cost the time it takes to get through it. Unless you're a true history buff, or entirely hooked on the JFK shooting I doubt you'll want to dedicate that much time. I didn't.

Historia
The New York Times best-selling author heralds the future of business in Free. In his revolutionary best seller, The Long Tail, Chris Anderson demonstrated how the online marketplace creates niche markets, allowing products and consumers to connect in a way that has never been possible before. Now, in Free, he makes the compelling case that, in many instances, businesses can profit more from giving things away than they can by charging for them.

Interesting and informative
Revisado: 02-13-15
Anderson has an interesting take on "free" that is sometimes dead-on and sometimes off-target. Overall, he does a good job describing the different approaches to "free" and gives a good argument for using "free" to grow sales. At times he tips over into fantasy land, but the bulk of this book is informative and well worth the listen.
Plus, it's free...
