Let me just say this—fake dating the cocky movie star was not my idea. Especially since he’s my former roomie and, gulp, my secret ex. But my agent tells me, I have no choice since I’m ridiculously overdue with turning in the next big blockbuster love story to my publisher. Not to mention, ahem, writing it. Hooking up with the smooth-talking English hottie once upon a time—fine, twice—were huge mistakes that I shouldn’t repeat, but pretending to like the guy who drives me crazy is my only chance at saving my job.

First - the group narrations work well. Harkens back the radio serials of the 19th century.
Second. - I found the main characters. Frustrating, hard headed. Overthinking. And so damnably relatable.
Lastly. This is a good one.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 1,883
Once the Church of God Awaiting dominated all the kingdoms of Safehold. Then, after centuries of stasis, the island kingdom of Charis began to defy the edicts of Mother Church—egged on, some say, by the mysterious warrior-monk Merlin Athrawes, who enjoys the Charisian royal family's absolute trust. What vanishingly few people know is that Merlin is the cybernetic avatar of a young woman a thousand years dead, felled in the war in which aliens destroyed Earth...and that since awakening, his task has been to restart the history of the long-hidden human race.

Sometimes things don't work out exactly as planned. The Mesan Alignment has a plan - one it's been working on for centuries. A plan to remake the galaxy and genetically improve the human race - its way. Until recently things have gone pretty much as scheduled, but then the Alignment hit a minor bump in the road called the Star Empire of Manticore. So the Alignment engineered a war between the Solarian League, the biggest and most formidable interstellar power in human history.

If you could sum up Shadow of Victory in three words, what would they be?
Book is Awesome (narrater not so much)
Any additional comments?
Soo, The book is good. But ruined, like one of the SafeHold series with a really awful narrator. He is good at childrens books, and he should stay there. keep him away from scifi.

Others have written science fiction on the theme of immortality, but in The Boat of a Million Years, Poul Anderson made it his own. Early in human history, certain individuals were born who live on—unaging, undying—through the centuries and millennia. This story follows them over two thousand years, up to our time and beyond—to the promise of utopia, and to the challenge of the stars.

- The Boat of a Million Years
- De: Poul Anderson
- Narrado por: Tom Weiner
The book feels... Unfinished.
Revisado: 05-19-14
What did you like best about The Boat of a Million Years? What did you like least?
The concept was fantastic, but because it was shoehorned into one book, I feel that an opportunity to paint a more vivid landscape with each era was missed. The character development came up short as well. i found it hard to empathize with any of the main characters; they were not as deep as they should have been to make this a successful book in my opinion.
What do you think your next listen will be?
1635
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
I would. A movie, with awesome CGI would make this story amazing. Film can set up eras with something as simple as an aireo shot.
Any additional comments?
Now that I have read this, i will take down my copy in my library and trade it for something that will fit better.

Loved it growing up, still love it now.
Revisado: 06-13-13
Would you listen to Friday again? Why?
Yes! Growing up, the genetics and sciences fascinated me because of this book, and now that I am older, I find other things that I can reflect on.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, but sadly, my commute is too short to :(

For 12,000 years the Galactic Empire has ruled supreme. Now it is dying. But only Hari Seldon, creator of the revolutionary science of psychohistory, can see into the future - to a dark age of ignorance, barbarism, and warfare that will last thirty thousand years. To preserve knowledge and save humankind, Seldon gathers the best minds in the Empire - both scientists and scholars - and brings them to a bleak planet at the edge of the galaxy to serve as a beacon of hope for future generations. He calls his sanctuary the Foundation.

Cornerstone of scifi??
Revisado: 06-13-13
What disappointed you about Foundation?
I tried to read it growing up and it couldn't keep my interest and now that I am older I tried the audio book and discovered WHY!! The sentence structure is almost that of a young reader, and I found the short, choppy sentences to be annoying and bothersome.
Would you ever listen to anything by Isaac Asimov again?
If this is the "cornerstone" of scifi, no, I will read David Weber or Elizabeth Moon.
Have you listened to any of Scott Brick’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
