Four lives are drawn together in a sweeping, panoramic new novel from Richard Powers, showcasing the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Overstory at the height of his skills. Twelve-year-old Evie Beaulieu sinks to the bottom of a swimming pool in Montreal strapped to one of the world’s first aqualungs. Ina Aroita grows up in naval bases across the Pacific with art as her only home. Two polar opposites at an elite Chicago high school bond over a three-thousand-year-old board game; Rafi Young will get lost in literature, while Todd Keane’s work will lead to a startling AI breakthrough.

It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the 10th annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to out charm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute. The odds are against him. He’s been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low.

It was repetitive.

Decent narration, decent story, not the Hunger Games but was really trying to be the Hunger Games…. Very predictable and lots of repetitive dialogue.

"I very much need to be dead." These are the chilling words left behind by a man who had everything to live for - but took his own life. In the void that remains stands his widow, Jane, surrounded by questions destined to go unanswered...unless she does what all the grief, fear, confusion, and fury inside of her demand: find the truth, no matter what. There is no one else to speak for Jane's husband - or the others who have followed him into death at their own hands.

The narration was very good and she kept my attention. The story was great, the author was fanciful in the plot, but it held together and has a nice ending. I can’t wait to listen to the next book!

New York, 2061: The place called the Pleasure Academy is a living nightmare where abducted girls are trapped, trained for a life of abject service while their souls are slowly but surely destroyed. Dorian, a thirteen-year-old runaway who’d been imprisoned there, might never have made it out if not for her fellow inmate Mina, who’d hatched the escape plan. Mina was the more daring of the two—but they’d been equally desperate.

What a waste of a credit!
Revisado: 12-09-22
I’m not sure where to begin? First of all, I am a police detective that specializes in child sex abuse cases. That being said, maybe my expectations were a bit to high. I understand this is a work of fiction, but the amount of garbage in this 13 hour listen is staggering. Was this book really on a best seller list? It needs to be condensed. You only need to explain the detective’s theory one time, instead, each chapter builds on the brilliant deductions made by Eve Dallas that there are children being taken and forced to submit to training and sexual grooming by a criminal organization. OK, move on from this and finish your story in 4 hours instead of 13. Ridiculous plot, ridiculous protagonist, utter nonsense. Finally, if you are going to make this about victims of sex trafficking, at least do the victims the courtesy of exploring the incredible trauma they’ve endured. Leave Eve Dallas’ sex life and foul mouth out of it. Can I get my credit back and is there a way I can get 13 hours of my life back?

In one of the most compelling combat narratives ever written, Staff Sergeant David Bellavia, an Army infantry platoon leader in Iraq, gives a teeth-rattling, first-hand account of 11 straight days of heavy house-to-house fighting during the climactic second battle of Fallujah. His actions in the firefight, which included killing five insurgents in hand-to-hand combat, earned Bellavia the Bronze Star, the Silver Star, and New York state's highest military honor, the Conspicuous Service Cross.

House to House was a great listen!

The author gives you a first hand account of the intense fighting he endured. It touches on the camaraderie felt in combat and the intense pain of losing teammates in battle. It is very realistic and hard to imagine. The hand to hand account he described is brutal and hard to imagine. Thanks to everyone who fought in every battle to keep us free in the USA!

Jack Diller is just one more struggling actor on the road to nowhere. He’s got an agent who barely remembers his name, his ex-girlfriend has hooked up with a Silicon Valley dude, and the milk in his fridge is so far past its sell-by date it’s historic. The only way Jack can scrape together a bare existence is by delivering food to exactly the types of successful people he wishes he could be. Then, one day, a very strange audiobook shows up on his phone.

Charlie Reade looks like a regular high school kid, great at baseball and football, a decent student. But he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a horrific accident when he was seven, and grief drove his dad to drink. Charlie learned how to take care of himself—and his dad. When Charlie is seventeen, he meets a dog named Radar and her aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard. Sometimes strange sounds emerge from that shed.

Stephen King is a master storyteller!
Revisado: 09-21-22
—-Spoiler alert—-
I’m pretty sure Mr.King has a shed in his backyard. The shed has a well inside with a staircase leading to another world. In this world there is an enchanted castle with a library of unpublished books that he can peruse at his leisure. He can always find just the right book to bring back to this world to keep his readers satisfied. I hope he takes a spin on the sundial so he can keep us all entertained for eternity!
Nice job with this novel, you never disappoint!
Thank you!

Since his wife died, Ralph Roberts has been having trouble sleeping. Each night he wakes up a bit earlier until he's barely sleeping at all. During his late-night walks, he observes some strange things going on in Derry, Maine. He sees colored ribbons streaming from people's heads, two strange little men wandering around town after dark, and more. He begins to suspect that these visions are something more than hallucinations brought on by lack of sleep.

Turn Off The Music!
Revisado: 03-02-22
I don't know why, but I read the reviews and did not believe the music could hurt a Stephan King novel. It ruined the entire book. Please remove the music. You can't even hear the story over the annoying electric guitar screeching, it was awful!
