Historia
I thought the day my younger brother waltzed back into my life was the day everything changed. I couldn’t have been more wrong. That didn’t happen until the night of July 4, 2016. That was the night the lights went out and stayed out. That fateful night was only the beginning of 10 months and 1,200 miles through hell. Jason Sterling, my brother, told you his story. My name is Braden Sterling. It’s my turn to tell you the tale of our journey from a tiny town in Kansas to Elko, Nevada, and The Ranch.

A great way to end an awesome series
Revisado: 02-14-23
I’ve been a big fan of the series. Character development and story are well done and very thought provoking. I’m a fan of Christopher Lane and listen to books because he narrates them. That’s how I found the Ranch series. Every opportunity I found during my day to listen to the audio book I took. Many times I thought to myself, “as a father what would I have done” in Braden’s or Alex’s situation? Those are they types of books I enjoy being immersed in.
Mr. Liscom, I know this is the last of the Ranch series but do write more in this survival genre. I really enjoyed this one.

Revisado: 07-10-22
I thought I had figured out Sara Barton’s killer half way into the book. Boy, was I surprised at the big reveal. I like surprises! I also like that I now have a new author to listen to. I’m starting to queue up some of his other books now.
Christopher Lanes narration and performance is always, always top-notch. I often listen to books simply because he’s narrating it. So convincing and mastery of story telling is so compelling.

Historia
After going on the run—for what he knows and has created—autistic Eddie Parks is back in Harmony House, the think tank that has been his sanctuary for sixteen years. With his miraculous invention, an “echo box” that excavates sounds from the past, Eddie achieved the only thing he wanted: to hear his late mother sing. For Bob Stenson, leader of the American Heritage Foundation, whoever controls the echo box controls the future. To seize the device, he has to get Eddie where he’s most vulnerable: by kidnapping Dr. Skylar Drummond, the only person in the world Eddie trusts.

Wow!
Revisado: 05-31-20
Rare do sequels exceed the entertainment value of their first volume in a series. New characters are a great addition to the cast and story. A lot more action than I expected which was a pleasant surprise. This almost plays out like a Jack Reacher novel minus a lone wolf hero. Eddies character is one that all audiences will root for. I really do hope this turns into a screenplay. It’s certainly worthy of a larger audience.

Historia
All Thomas Weaver wanted was death. What he got was time travel. Thomas Weaver, haunted by a teenage tragedy, lived a wasted life. He closed his eyes for what he believed was the last time in 2016, but opened them again in his teenage bedroom and body in 1976. Now a middle-aged man in his teenage body, he sets out to fix everything he did wrong in his first life. A budding serial killer in home room, a possible new romance, and high school algebra complicate his plans. What would you do, if you could do it all again?

A good find
Revisado: 04-12-19
Looking for a book for work related road trip, I was looking to see if any of Jerry Merritt’s books were released. My favorite being A Gift of Time. The Unusual life was a “what others liked” pick so sampled it and seemed interesting enough. I was not disappointed. The redemptive premise is not new but always enjoyable content because everyone can related to “if I could go back in time, I would change this or that”. I’m going to get Book 2 given I was pleased with Book 1. The Authors commentary at the end was a nice touch.

Historia
For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Revisado: 12-15-18
What an incredible story. I devoured this book in just a couple days. I can’t say I subscribe to everything Goggins preaches but there are certainly guiding principles that resonate with me that will forever stick with me and motivate me to go harder. I can say with confidence it’s changed my world view in a sense and how much effort I put into things and not being afraid to fail or needing to fear period. The additional dialogue between the narrator and Goggins between chapters was a huge bonus getting to hear what was going on in Goggins head and how he pushed through pain. I’m going to get a couple copies of this book for co-workers as Christmas Gifts. If this doesn’t seriously challenge someone to rethink their efforts on charging forward or elevating their game, I don’t know what will. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Revisado: 12-06-18
Having listened to Charles Duhigg’s “Smarter Faster Better: The Secrets of Being Productive in Life and Business” I was motivated to listen to this as well. Very helpful in identifying cues and loops in what triggers our habits. Stories about how companies tap into and exploit habits; how personal habits develop (with some devastating outcomes noted in the book) and prescriptive framework to help identify them has motivated me to pinpoint the source of “why” I persist with habits, experiment in satiating then with better things, or eliminating them altogether. I now have insight on what to look for so having personally learned some things and having a better perspective, I would highly recommend this book.

Helpful and insightful
Revisado: 11-26-18
Some of the guidelines provided were common sense on the surface but it does a good job of explaining the framework by using easy to understand labels and other descriptors and real life examples to help the listener absorb the concept. I plan on using some of the guidelines in the book in my everyday business handlings and negotiations.

A clearer understanding of S.M.A.R.T and stretch goals
Revisado: 11-07-18
...as well as cognitive thinking, diversity to spur creativity, information blindness and other mind mapping constructs. I was captivated by the aviation stories and the comparisons to pilot error and pilot success through familiar thought models. As a manager of a development team and having decision influence on support teams, this book has inspired me to approach goal setting, data analysis and collaboration differently. I’m excited to get started.

A for effort
Revisado: 09-26-18
I appreciate the book for the effort the author invested year after year to help catch the GSK. The writing was good but the story was disjointed IMO. Candidly, going into this without any previous knowledge, I was kind of hoping justice were exacted. I waited and waited. I suppose just like Michelle. It was not a waste of time and I appreciate someone was so devoted to catching the scum bag, however. I prefer books like “Forensics: What Bugs, Burns, Prints, DNA, and More Tell Us About Crime” by Val McDermid.

Historia
An 11-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

As late-bloomer Stephen King fan...
Revisado: 09-16-18
I had certain elevated expectations. Something so gripping that I wouldn’t be able to put the book down. It was a little slow going until about half way through when a certain guest (King fans will know) became part of the story. The guest added the “missing ingredient” the book was lacking (at least for me). I consumed the book at that point. An interesting villain I was not expecting but it explained why and what happened. If you listen to the book, be patient. As he always does, Will Patton does a great performance and keeps the book interesting. Give the book a chance. Not every King book hits it out of the ballpark but this one keeps the game close.
