Lawrence of Arabia's seminal work charts his time with British Military Intelligence in the Levantine territories, during the wars with the Turks. The manuscript is candid and action-packed (and was entirely re-written after Lawrence lost the original manuscript whilst changing trains).

Decent, but not great
Revisado: 11-27-11
This book was fairly interesting, but I did find myself daydreaming and missing parts at times.. It is definitely an older writing style, and doesn't grab my attention as much as some modern works do. The main reason I'm writing a review however is because I am displeased with the amount of repetitive music that is played during the audio book. At the end of some chapters there is close to 3 minutes of music! I don't see any point to this, and I would prefer that it goes right into the next chapter after a short pause (like most books). The narration was fairly good, and it's a very interesting war story. A little too much homosexuality for my taste, but that's how the book is. It wasn't too over-done, just more than I would have preferred.

The Zombie War came unthinkably close to eradicating humanity. Max Brooks, driven by the urgency of preserving the acid-etched first-hand experiences of the survivors from those apocalyptic years, traveled across the United States of America and throughout the world, from decimated cities that once teemed with upwards of 30 million souls, to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet.

Decent, but too short
Revisado: 08-18-11
I liked the concept of this book, and it's the only one I have read where the living fully triumph over the dead, but I think it was too short. There wasn't enough details on many aspects. I did enjoy the style of narration, where there were several readers for each different person "being interviewed".
