Historia
Peter Wolf grew up in the Bronx, a child of “fellow travelers” whose artistic inclinations influenced both his love of music and his initial desire to become a painter. Stories of his loving and sometimes eccentric parents complement scenes depicting a very young Bob Dylan as he arrived on the Greenwich Village folk scene. Reflections on Wolf’s studies in Boston—where he shared an apartment with David Lynch—are braided with accounts of first love, an untraditional literary education, and early musical influences such as Muddy Waters.

Should have been called “Name Dropping with Peter Wolf”
Revisado: 03-19-25
This is a collection of stories (some interesting, some not) of the people Peter Wolf has met over the course of his life. If you wanted to hear about Peter’s experiences as a DJ on WBCN or his time with J Geils you will be disappointed.

Historia
Cassie Andrews works in a New York City bookshop, shelving books, making coffee for customers, and living an unassuming, ordinary life. Until the day one of her favorite customers—a lonely yet charming old man—dies right in front of her. Cassie is devastated. She always loved his stories, and now she has nothing to remember him by. Nothing but the last book he was reading. But this is no ordinary book… It is the Book of Doors. Inscribed with enigmatic words and mysterious drawings, it promises Cassie that any door is every door. You just need to know how to open them.

Great story, great characters, great performance!
Revisado: 09-05-24
I eagerly looked up the next book by Brown and was surprised (and a bit disappointed) to find out this was his debut. Oh well, I guess I will have to wait for the next one.
But if you haven’t listened yet, do it!

Historia
Jonathan Abernathy is a self-proclaimed loser . . . he’s behind on his debts, has no prospects, no friends, and no ambitions. But when a government loan forgiveness program offers him a literal dream job, he thinks he’s found his big break. If he can appear to be competent at his new job, entering the minds of middle-class workers while they sleep and removing the unsavory detritus of their waking lives from their unconscious, he might have a chance at a new life. As Abernathy finds his footing in this new role, reality and morality begin to warp around him.

Dark, interesting ride
Revisado: 12-16-23
Molly McGhee’s debut novel is a dark, spellbinding ride into what humans are willing to do to to survive and fit into what they perceive for society. I suspect this is the first of many novels.
Andrew’s narration is excellent.

I really tried but I just couldn’t listen to the narrator…
Revisado: 12-09-23
I got through 8 chapters because I really wanted to listen to the story, but Henning’s pre-school voice inflections were just too much for me. Probably one I should have read instead of tried to listen to.

Good, but… disjointed?
Revisado: 08-13-23
I am a big fan of Peter King - I firmly believe he is one of the best living writers today.
Billy Summers had me hooked early on, and I looked forward to where he was taking us. However this story was a bit rambling for me. The original story line was abandoned midway & the characters introduced were mostly dismissed, rarely to be heard from again. Then there was another goal for Billy, and then another.
There were also a couple of teasers introduced that were never followed up on like the memory of the plastic bags on the telephone lines (I think that’s what it was - it’s hard to go back and find things in audible) & the lurking COVID-19 pandemic. Frankly it felt to me as though the story needed some good editing for content.
Paul Sparks’ narration was solid. He did a nice job creating voices for different characters.
Overall I enjoyed Billy Summers, but this one isn’t a King book I’d go out of my recommending.

Historia
Sometimes the worst storms aren't from Mother Nature, and sometimes the worst nightmares aren't the ones in our heads. Mike Mitchell, an average New Yorker already struggling to keep his family together, suddenly finds himself fighting just to keep them alive when an increasingly bizarre string of disasters starts appearing on the world's news networks. As both the real world and the cyber world come crashing down, bending perception and reality, a monster snowstorm cuts New York off from the world, turning it into a wintry tomb where nothing is what it seems.

Solid story. And a scary because it could happen…?
Revisado: 08-01-23
Mathew’s story pulled me in, and with quite a bit of unease. In fact it put me in a bit of a funk after listening the first couple of hours. But a good, compelling story that will keep you listening.
Taylorson’s narration was solid but unspectacular. Sometimes characters would sound the same as other characters, but otherwise does a good job.

Doc Ebersole lives with the ghost of Hank Williams—not just in the figurative sense, not just because he was one of the last people to see him alive, and not just because he is rumored to have given Hank the final morphine dose that killed him.

Perhaps if he told it in a straight forward narrative it would be more interesting, but I finally gave up on it with around 10 hours left to go.

Historia
The holiday film A Christmas Story, first released in 1983, has become a bona fide Christmas perennial, gaining in stature and fame with each succeeding year. Its affectionate, wacky, and wryly realistic portrayal of an American family's typical Christmas joys and travails in small-town Depression-era Indiana has entered our imagination and our hearts with a force equal to It's a Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street.

If you are a lover of the movie, then it’s worth the credit. If you also happen to like Dick Cavett, then even better. Enjoy!

Historia
The idealized childhood of this fictional hero, based on Mark Twain's own early life along the banks of the Mississippi, is filled with robust good humor and high-spirited adventures. Yet there is also an in-depth experience of the central South of the 1840s—its dialects, superstitions, and social values. While romping through fun-filled fantasy, Tom Sawyer shows how morally complicated real life can be. In his unabridged reading of the American classic, actor Patrick Fraley crafts 36 authentic "voices" to represent the wide range of Twain's delightful characters.

It’s Mark Twain, but what else can you rate it?
Revisado: 03-06-22
It’s a great story, and well read. I know it’s not very PC but Twain was clearly showing you how people thought and spoke at the time - that part of it was more reporting than writing. Enjoy the story.
