Some of these reviews are doubting the awesomeness of this book. and yes, there's a lot of logistical crap to wade through, but the story needed that because things are complicated for the Merry Band of Pirates now. The ending here is great. Get there and please don't doubt the awesomeness.

It's a fun listen, great stories overall and some super interesting deep confessions from the band. really poignant at times. I would say it wouldn't appeal to anyone who is not already a fan of the band. I enjoyed El Hefe's and Smelly's chapters the best.

Fat Mike has the most chapters and as the leader of the band that's understandable, but so many of his chapters especially in the latter half of the book are about his coming to terms with his kinks and sexuality I found it a bit cringey. It's awesome that he as a person is able to come to terms with all that but it felt like the Fat Mike Confession hour for a long time and not the NOFX story.

Sometimes I felt a strong editor was in order in the middle to reign in Sanderson's sprawling universe then I realized the sprawling universe is absolutely the point. I genuinely believe in the axiom "Journey before destination..." but the end here versus Odium...the destination is worth it.

If you are a fan of Shirley Jackson's work, this novella is a treat that further expands on her Gothic motifs established in other works like The Lottery. The sisters here share a potent secret and to my mind one of the strongest love stories I have ever read that borders on mania and obsession.

Really catches Nirvana's meteoric rise, from obscure punk band to superstardom, you get a sense for how crazy those few years were for Cobain, the band and Goldberg. There is nothing really new here in terms of details about the band's life that an astute fan will not have already read about in other biographies, but Goldberg's court side viewpoint is unique. He has an authentic demeanor because he was there, a figure that Cobain called father, hearing Goldberg tell it sounds special. I'm grateful to him for sharing his viewpoint with me.

scary, horrofingly amazing book. Oskar and Eli's story will delight you and terrify you in equal parts. a dash of Morrissey lyrics too, this book has it all.

Its like Ready Player One meets Starship Troopers. In fact there's nothing inventive about the soldier in power armor here, Starship Troopers and The Forever War did it better in the 1970s. And the fact that the main character is a "brony" in the 23rd century feels trite. But the story is fun to listen to. it's a nice adventure, rags to riches story. That central story is the saving grace here.

Great book. Strap in and enjoy the ride. The book is light on scifi action but big on ideas about what it means or it should mean to be a citizen, voting, and why humans go to war.

Good story, good voice acting and nice effects. but the book has little to no direct relevance to the film, simply providing back story of the Urso family. Don't get me wrong it's an interesting story but it's nothing truly special.

Great book by one of the greats writers of scientific romance! since it's not quite sci-fi yet. Biting social commentary on religion, empire, and the role of science in our lives that is as relevant today as 100 years ago. The reading performance is also spot on.
