Historia
In 2059, two vastly different groups of people portrayed by the compelling trio of Brendan Fraser (Academy Award winner), Luke Kirby (Emmy Award winner), and Vanessa Sears (Dora Award winner) undergo cryonic suspension. While their bodies are frozen, their minds, still active and awake, are uploaded into a massive quantum computer. The first group are all astronauts, about to leave Earth on a one-way interstellar colonization mission. The second group consists of convicted murderers and volunteers who elect to serve their sentences in a virtual-reality prison.

I enjoyed the pace, the dilemma of the various characters and the ending. Nice short story. Great narration.

Historia
The world has changed. Now, when someone is murdered, they almost always come back to life—and there are professionals, called “dispatchers”, who kill in order to save lives, to give those near the end a second chance. Tony Valdez is a dispatcher, and he has never been busier. But for as much as the world has changed, some things have stayed the same. Greed, corruption, and avarice are still in full swing.

New idea

Actually I was surprised I enjoyed this premise. The narrator is very good, storyline is interesting and overall it was very interesting. I began with this one, so you obviously can start here without knowing that it’s book 3 in a series!

Historia
After Katmere, I shouldn't be surprised by anything. Including the existence of a world beyond my world called the Shadow Realm. Yet here I am, stuck in a strange, dangerous place with the worst of the supernaturals, the monster that other monsters fear: Hudson Vega. He might be Jaxon's brother and ridiculously hot, but he's a complete bona fide pain in my ass. The question is whether we'll find a way out before I kill him...or run out of time.

Historia
Bringing the magic and suspense of the All Souls Trilogy to a deeply satisfying conclusion, this highly anticipated finale went straight to number one on the New York Times best seller list. In The Book of Life, Diana and Matthew time-travel back from Elizabethan London to make a dramatic return to the present - facing new crises and old enemies. At Matthew’s ancestral home, Sept-Tours, they reunite with the beloved cast of characters from A Discovery of Witches - with one significant exception.

AIDAN is the AI you'll love to hate. The advanced AI system was supposed to protect a fleet of survivors who'd escaped the deadly attack on Kerenza IV. AIDAN was supposed to be infallible. But in the chaotic weeks and months that followed, it became clear that something was terribly, terribly wrong with AIDAN....

Brilliant. We know now why Aidan was “compromised” even before the accident. It’s an interesting twist to a complex storyline.

Gets better 2/3 of the way in
Revisado: 12-20-20
It’s not a bad book. It is a book that I think goes a bit off track trying to be a super social justice all inclusive book. You don’t need to spend half a chapter explaining sexuality to us. We get it. You have true equality if you just call that person whatever they want to be called and not go on about it. It detracted from her story. Also in the last book Wade decided since H was a guy in the game he’d refer to him as a he, then you spent the entire book calling H a she here. Consistency is important. Anyways after we get through all that we finally get to the good parts and the exciting challenges that Parzival has to deal with against all odds. The ending was interesting. I felt Samatha was a bit one note here and Shoto seems a bit left out, but at least he’s there.

Joining us at Audible Studios is prominent stage and television actor David Tennant, who has narrated The War of the Worlds by H. G. Wells for Audible Studios. The War of the Worlds depicts the arrival of an alien vessel on Horsell Common, in Woking.

Their ruthless disregard for human life leaves humanity under threat of extinction. As the world crumbles, a lone man sets out across the wasteland to find his wife.

It’s always intriguing to see what David has to say about various subjects. He always covers a myriad of topics and is open about everything. If you want to listen to something light and short this is free and fun.

Magnificent
Revisado: 10-31-17
Stephen Fry. Those two words sum up all that is wonderful about the Narrative of these books. He’s so good that he shifts from character to character seamlessly and you forget you are listening to just one person.
The stories are always amazing as well, some are so fascinating to listen to-The Valley Of Fear is definitely one of those novels that doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. Yet to me, the best part of the story is where Holmes isn’t involved at all. It’s an unusually gripping story and Stephen Fry is mesmerizing in his linguistic ability here.
Listen. You won’t regret it.

Very interesting compilation
Revisado: 12-16-16
This is really rather fun, it has a few very short plays performed that were written by Agatha Christie that I'd never heard of or read before as well as live recordings of her in various places. There's also a full Radio Broadcast and afterwards an interview with the sole surviving cast member. He discusses not only Agatha Christie, but his experiences in set design as well as the movies he worked on.
Really fun Historical and trivia piece to listen to.
