Historia
College student Joe Talbert has the modest goal of completing a writing assignment for an English class. His task is to interview a stranger and write a brief biography of the person. With deadlines looming, Joe heads to a nearby nursing home to find a willing subject. There he meets Carl Iverson, and soon nothing in Joe's life is ever the same. Carl is a dying Vietnam veteran-and a convicted murderer. With only a few months to live, he has been medically paroled to a nursing home after spending thirty years in prison for the crimes of rape and murder.

I liked this story very much. When the story first started, I wondered if I would like this audio book. Then as the story went on I was kept at attention even staying up later than necessary to hear what was gonna happen next. Recommended listen with great life viewpoint, stop provoking messages.

Excellent space story with a human twist
Revisado: 11-13-22
When looking into Brandon Sanderson's book's. I wasn't sure where to start. So I chose this particular series. I was not disappointed. I'm only into the 1st book of the series I hope the others are worth it and the writing and narration is just as good. Coming to the conclusion of the story it does leave the listener wanting more. I can't say that I was ever bored listening so I guess that's a good thing. Recommended listen in my opinion!!

Historia
Untouched by Human Hands consists of 13 stories of beings who dwell on the strange borders of reality. Some of these stories tell of people you know or of events that might happen - but haven't yet. Some will take you to the furthermost reaches of the sky and to planets whose names are unknown this side of Arcturus. And some - perhaps the richest and most memorable of these stories - open into the interior of strange minds to reveal the reflection of ourselves.

Some Of Sheckley's Best Short Stories...

Nice audio book for casual listening.
Revisado: 09-09-22
This may not have been the most exciting audio book. Or the most eloquent audio book. But I enjoyed it purely for the fact that it occupied my mind in a manner that I thoroughly enjoyed. Sometimes you want to listen without thinking too much this is one of those types of audiobooks. Recommended for like minds.

Historia
Want to be immortal? You can be in AD 2110. Just go to the Hereafter Insurance Corporation and hook yourself up to the Machine. There’s nothing to fear. That is, if it happens to be working right, and if nobody slips another mind into your body when you’re not looking, and if you’re not on a poltergeist hatelist.

A most excellent journey into death
Revisado: 09-05-22
I have nothing negative to say about this audio book. Captivated from beginning to end, even lost sleep to finish it. The performance in narrating was perfect. The the performance in reading was perfect. For my preference I set the speed to .95 I think. Do not pass on this title. I would even say it's worth a purchase.

Another great novel in this series.
Revisado: 06-12-22
After going through about 14 volumes of this series I have to say that I enjoyed most all of them including this one. I know that's not saying much but I don't know how many times I can repeat an enjoyable story with an enjoyable narrator. This series has been great and I have enjoyed traveling along along miles's story.

Another enjoyable saga in this storyline
Revisado: 05-07-22
Since I started this book series there has always been a fascination for me. So I have committed to enjoy every episode thereafter. I think what I like best about this author and book series is how it makes one think. The narrator does grow on you and the complex storylines weave together into a very detailed intricate picture. I have also noticed good to fall asleep to. Not that it's boring. so I bookmark when I lose focus on some part of the story before sleeping.

Historia
Set during the Depression in the depleted farmlands surrounding Augusta, Georgia, Tobacco Road was first published in 1932. It is the story of the Lesters, a family of white sharecroppers so destitute that most of their creditors have given up on them. Debased by poverty to an elemental state of ignorance and selfishness, the Lesters are preoccupied by their hunger, sexual longings, and fear that they will one day descend to a lower rung on the social ladder than the black families who live near them.

Can't say this was a good listen
Revisado: 03-31-22
I am fairly open minded. And I did give this book a genuine effort all the way to the end. The performance was great while the story was questionable and seemingly at times just tacky.. Maybe it wasn't my era or I didn't appreciate the context of what they're getting across. There are better books to listen to I would pass on this one. The end was predictable which made me wonder why I wasted my time even listening to it.

When I 1st started listening to this audio book. It seemed a little slow but the story does pick up and I believe it is worth a listen if you have time while doing hobbies. Not the best story but not the worst either. Worth a look!

Historia
In a scrap heap within an abandoned factory, the greatest invention in history lies dormant and unused. By what fatal error of judgment has its value gone unrecognized, its brilliant inventor punished rather than rewarded for his efforts? In defense of those greatest of human qualities that have made civilization possible, one man sets out to show what would happen to the world if all the heroes of innovation and industry went on strike.

Must listen. Extraordinary story for all times
Revisado: 03-04-22
This particular book is very thought provoking. There really isn't very much more to say about it than that. If you want to retain a narrow minded focus and not grow as a person then do not listen. Otherwise there are many concepts and ideas that resonate throughout the spirit of humanity enclosed within this audio book.
