Scientology is one of the wealthiest and most powerful new religions to emerge in the past century. To its detractors, L. Ron Hubbard's space-age mysticism is a moneymaking scam and sinister brainwashing cult. But to its adherents, it is humanity's brightest hope. Few religious movements have been subject to public scrutiny like Scientology, yet much of what is written about the church is sensationalist and inaccurate.

A Great Book, a Not Great Narrator.
Revisado: 11-06-22
Excellent book — Urban does a fantastic job of outlining the background, development, and broader picture of Scientology as a whole. However, the narrator leaves something to be desired. Each time Urban quotes the founder, Hubbard, she puts on a very nasally, seemingly mocking voice to read them. I dislike Hubbard as much as the next person, but this is disrespectful, takes away from Urban’a objectivity, and is overall, just super annoying. The narrator is fine, not my favorite, but this ruins the listening experience, as these quotes make a frequent appearance over the course of the book. Listen to other reviewers and read the text instead of listening to this.
