AI VOICE WAS OBVIOUS

Revisado: 03-28-25

ThIs was narrated by AI. Audible said it was a person but listen to the preview and tell me what you think.

Poor acting. Not up to the show’s standards.

Revisado: 04-12-22

The story was so vague it really wasn’t worth the time. Very disappointing audio book.

Is this a human voice?

Revisado: 02-15-22

There are so many mispronounced words that I began to suspect that they used a computer generated voice. That and the overdone music and sound effects made this my least favorite Audible “book”.

Really boring. I am not anti Obama but this was was just uninteresting. I only listened to maybe half of it though. Couldn't stay awake for more.

Another side of Mr. Jobs

Revisado: 04-22-15

I still think I prefer the Walter Isaacson book but this one told a little different and in some places contradictory story. Well worth a listen.

Wonderful book for Disney fans and critics alike.

Revisado: 04-03-11

Neal Gabler has one of those voices you could listen to for hours. The story was well written and goes into amazing depth, This is no white wash of Walt's life. This is Walt Disney with all the warts, You will still end up sheding a tear when he dies if you have a heart. This is my favorite audio book and I have listened to it 5 or 6 times. Well worth a listen.

Surgeon General's Warning!

Revisado: 06-04-10

This book can be quite addictive. Great characters and a story you wish would never end. Thankfully there are lots of sequels. If you liked Rendevous with Rama by Arthur C. Clarke you will probably like this one. Has a somewhat similar premise.

Absolutely Wonderful Version - WELL DONE!!

Revisado: 06-04-10

Being a big fan of the book, the movie and sci-fi in general I had high hopes for this audio book and it didn't let me down one bit. Many of the words and names in the book are tongue twisters and the readers (actors) did a splendid job in voicing tham. This was closer to a radio play than an audio book. This is the best audio book I have listened to and can't wait to listen to the rest of the series.

Good but not Clarke's Best

Revisado: 06-04-10

I think this story was more Pohl than it was Clarke. I kept reading Clarke's later work trying to find something to equal to what I consider his best work, Childhood's End, and I never found it. This was pretty good but you had to pay pretty close attention as the story got really involved. This isn't one of those you can listen to while you do your taxes and still keep track of the story. Worth a listen.

Cool Asimov Robot Tale!

Revisado: 06-04-10

Always get a kick out of robot stories and detective books and this was the best of both worlds. Interesting bit of the story had a branch off to the later "Positronic Man" book from 1993 which became "Bicentennial Man". You will recognize the refference to "Little Miss" in the book. Well woven story by the master and well voiced. I was confused and thought the reader was William Devries at first as he sounded similar to the actor and the spoken version of his name is a little confusing. That was my fault though. Well worth a listen.
