Historia
This book is a quilt, piecing together memoir, history, and theory into a living portrait of an artist and an art. Sasha Velour illuminates drag as a unique form of expression with a rich history and a revolutionary spirit. Each chapter strips off a new layer, removing one tantalizing glove and then another, to reveal all the twists and turns in the life of a queen. As Sasha recalls her own journey, from the women who raised her, to learning the craft of an artist, to success, disaster, and more, she also uncovers the history of queer life around the world that made it all possible.

...all Sasha.
this was an enjoyable listen - Sasha performs their own words in an engaging, easy to consume manner. a nice reminder of where we've come from, where we could go and not to take anything too seriously.

more of a cosmere lore book

....than a Mistborn book. interesting to fans for sure, but without a compelling plot for our main Mistborn era 2 characters. Michael Kramer is a stunning narrator as always.

Historia
Spensa’s life as a Defiant Defense Force pilot has been far from ordinary. She proved herself one of the best starfighters in the human enclave of Detritus, and she saved her people from extermination at the hands of the Krell - the enigmatic alien species that has been holding them captive for decades. What’s more, she traveled light-years from home as an undercover spy to infiltrate the Superiority, where she learned of the galaxy beyond her small planet home. Now, the Superiority - the governing galactic alliance bent on dominating all human life - has started a galaxy-wide war.

Slow story to literal and figurative Nowhere
Revisado: 12-25-21
I enjoyed the first two books as I've enjoyed pretty much everything Sanderson has written. but for me this one was a miss. slow of pace and anti-climactic, it read as a de-escalation in terms of dramatic tension from the preceding books. it also introduced an entirely new cast and ignores characters the reader has established relationships with. personally I found this book to be a struggle to get through. I was never eager to pick it back up - rather I got to the end to get the story. but that didn't really matter as there's no resolution.
that's not to say you won't enjoy it. and the narrator does a fantastic job. so give it a go but understand that it's probably not what you're hoping it will be after how the story began.

When The Sandman, also known as Lord Morpheus - the immortal king of dreams, stories and the imagination - is pulled from his realm and imprisoned on Earth by a nefarious cult, he languishes for decades before finally escaping. Once free, he must retrieve the three “tools” that will restore his power and help him to rebuild his dominion, which has deteriorated in his absence.

Whether you've read the comics or not, this experience is a treat. Wonderfully adapted to an audiobook and brilliantly performed and produced. if you're at all curious, buy this book - you will be happy that you did. #creditworthy

Historia
For thousands of years, there has been a cycle: a Demon King rises and conquers, and a Hero is reborn a hundred years later to defeat him. Each time, civilizations are ground to dust beneath the Demon King's hordes, but humanity has remained secure in the belief that a Hero of legend will always save them. There's just one slight problem. It's only been 23 years since the Demon King's latest rise, and this time, he's already conquered more than half the world. If humanity simply waits for the Hero's return, there may be no world left for him to save.

Historia
The Dynize have unlocked the Landfall Godstone, and Michel Bravis is tasked with returning to Greenfire Depths to do whatever he can to prevent them from using its power: from sewing dissension among the enemy ranks to rallying the Palo population. Ben Styke's invasion of Dynize is curtailed when a storm scatters his fleet. Coming ashore with just 20 lancers, he is forced to rely on brains rather than brawn - gaining new allies in a strange land on the cusp of its own internal violence.

A laborious read
Revisado: 01-29-20
I enjoyed books 1 and 2 but this book was a bit tedious. So many of the reviews are gushing that I wonder if we all read the same book.
The time travel element serves to remove dramatic tension since characters know when they won't die. some of the more interesting elements of the story previously have been dropped - politics are out the window and a facist regime is cool so long as we like him? - while the book wobbles between descriptions of battles or long bits of exposition that might have been engaging if rolled out as the story progressed rather than in a glut to tie off loose ends.
Michael Kramer provides great narration as usual so even if the story is un-engaging, it's a pleasing listen.

you'll get used to the narrator though his voice is better suited to meditation than fantasy novels.
