Pure Cinematic Material
Revisado: 04-26-25
This audiobook feels like pure cinematic material — the action, drama, mystery, pacing, and vivid storytelling make it incredibly easy to imagine on the big screen
You can never expect what is coming next.
The "Omega device," also called the "Thunderbird device," is the core of the novel's thrilling plot. This powerful technology has the terrifying ability to unleash massive natural disasters sparking a hidden conflict between the United States and China. As rival forces race to claim it, tensions rise, violence erupts, and a web of international intrigue tightens around those who dare to get involved.
Scott Fleming’s narration was outstanding! Very clear tone and a great pace with a perfect pitch changing based on the character and setup. He captures the energy, tension, and excitement of the story and delivers it right into your ears. He provides a top notch performance!!!
Very impressive!

Historia
How much do you truly know about personal finance? For previous generations, personal finance opportunities were limited, with access to insights and information being held by the richest in society. As a result, many people were either uneducated or limited in their approach to personal finance. However, thanks to the advances in technology in recent years, there are now significantly more ways to learn about how to create a secure, stress-free, and prosperous life for yourself.

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audiobook.
The author Donald Raymond, puts clear ideas, straight forward, to help the listener know how to plan for financial success be it retirement, buying a house, investing,...
I already started implementing the proposed ideas to start saving/setting money aside to buy a house in few years.
Narration was superb. Dan Hamel has a clear voice and a very engaging tone with an excellent pace.
This is definitely recommended to anyone who would really appreciate learning, in simple ways, how to manage his/her finances with down to earth ideas and recommendations.

So Interesting.
Full of action, mystery, suspense, investigations and a bit of light romance.
Gracie and Bailey are well-crafted characters, strong female leads who show vulnerability and emotional depth as they juggle the tension between their undercover task and their personal relationships.
Buckle up, for you will be taken on a wild ride.
Narration is great - very high standard. This is the second audiobook that I enjoy narrated by Derek Shoales and I have to admit I love how he moves from character to character while changing tones/voices very eloquently and smoothly.

Serious Action and Suspense!
Revisado: 09-26-24
Out of Poland is not just a war novella; I saw it as a tribute to the invincible human spirit. Patriotism, loyalty, and personal sacrifice resonate from beginning to end. It’s a story of individuals forced into extraordinary circumstances, making life-and-death decisions for the greater good of their homeland and finally succeeding to get Baby - Germany’s Enigma machine to the allies.
A story full of action and suspense all the way.
The narration was great with perfect pace and accent. The narrator did an excellent job in changing voices between different characters which was well-maintained and easy to follow. I could really know the character involved in the scene just by the tone and accent of the narrator.
Great job Derek Shoales!
In conclusion, this audiobook is captivating. Definitely recommended for anyone interested in historical fiction, especially those who appreciate stories of resilience and heroism during one of the darkest periods in history - WWII.

Revisado: 09-20-24
This is an audiobook you would want to listen to once more, or maybe several times more and use as a reference every time you want to get some details about how to prepare your home or self for times of crisis. The author gives a guide on how to do it yourself to have enough food, clean water, power and shelter to be prepared and survive in times of emergency or difficulties.
Phoenix Macleod, compiles this resource based on his personal experience. Despite the fact that this is a good and handy resource, I find that some options can not be applied to people living in apartments.
Narration was great. The narrator uses a perfect pace with clear pronunciation. His tone is very suitable to the genre of the book.
I was very impressed with the conclusion.
Definitely recommended!

A Delightful Exploration of Humorous Wit
Revisado: 08-10-24
"There are two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants and the other is getting it..."- Oscar Wilde - Antithesis Wilde
The Ways to Wit, by Joshua Smith, functions as a mini-catalogue, highlighting the distinct forms of wit practiced by literary giants like Oscar Wilde, G.K. Chesterton, and Charles Dickens...
This work is more than just a collection of essays; it’s an invitation to revisit these classic texts with fresh eyes.
Narration by James Fowler was perfectly suitable to the style of the book. The narration was clear and fluid, and the tone used is fitting and engaging.
It is a gem for anyone interested in literature, humour, or the art of language itself. It's both an enjoyable audiobook and a good resource.

This book explains how Major League Baseball (MLB) is different today compared to the 1910s and 1920s, two of the most exciting and “gold-gilded” decades of baseball.

All about Daddy Long Legs
Revisado: 07-23-24
An interesting audiobook about Cy Williams, an American professional baseball player, written by his grandchild Gary Williams.
The author has done a great job detailing the life of Fred "Cy" Williams, be it the personal, educational, career, teams, interests, scores, achievements,... I was very impressed with the fact that Williams went to college and graduated as an architect which is something rare for that time, and of course this gave him a special identity. After retiring, Williams returned to his farm in Wisconsin where he worked as an architect. He was also a successful artist doing oil paintings, singing in the church choir, and playing the banjo among other things.
The book also discusses the difference in baseball back then and now including the major shift from the dead ball era to the live ball era, which is very well-detailed.
The book provides interesting stories about the game of baseball during William’s career played mostly in the 1920s and other players including Babe Ruth.
I was not very fond of listening to the statistics and numbers mentioned, but other than that, it is an interesting audiobook informing the listener of a great giant in baseball, the most unique slugger in MLB - "Cy" Williams.
Ward Paxton, the narrator, brings the book to life. I was really impressed with the fluidity of his tone and narration, it is very attractive, however, I would have preferred that the speed of narration would be a bit faster. It was slow for my taste and that is why I had to speed up the narration to enjoy it better.
This is definitely a recommended audiobook for baseball lovers or those who are interested in the history of baseball.

Revisado: 05-28-24
Thank you Jennifer Edwards for sharing all this compiled data in this book. I enjoyed listening to every detail mentioned.
I have always wondered why the Hype concerning Intermittent fasting. I can understand now the benefits and be aware of the side effects too. I liked the idea that intermittent fasting is a lifestyle NOT a Diet! Since most diets focus on what to eat and what not to eat, intermittent fasting focuses mainly on WHEN to eat and WHEN NOT to eat.
Although this book is mainly about Intermittent fasting during menopause, I find it useful to all women.
Melli Achna did a good job narrating the book at a very comfortable speed which made it easy to follow.

Owen Perry grew up in a military working-class family in a small New England town, packed into a three-bedroom house with his parents and five siblings. He didn’t have any wealthy connections or mentors, or any college options, but he dreamed that someone rich and famous would discover him, carrying him away to a better life. Fortunately, that never happened. Because from the life-changing moment he realized nobody was coming, he set out to build his dreams for himself. What followed was a transformative odyssey.

Revisado: 04-26-24
"Would you rather live your life one day as a lion or live a lifetime as a sheep"
What a provoking question! Made me think a lot about it.
In this audiobook, Owen Perry offers vital guidance and realistic plans that are helpful for achieving success, through his life lessons and interesting experiences. The author also mentions the challenges he faced on the way, be it business related or perosonal. One can learn a lot of lessons from this audiobook.
One interesting lesson I learned from this book and would love to start applying it: To have a positive thought every morning when I wake up - starting our day with a positive thought, sets the mind on a positive thinking habit where one focuses on the graces in his/her life and eventually cultivates a positive mindset throughout the whole day.
Kevin Wagner does a great job narrating this book. He has an engaging voice that is very convenient for this type of book.
This audiobook had the perfect combination of great content and narration.
Definitely a recommendation!
