A human diplomat creates an interstellar incident when he kills an alien diplomat in a most unusual way. To avoid war, Earth's government must find an equally unusual object: A type of sheep ("The Android's Dream"), used in the alien race's coronation ceremony. To find the sheep, the government turns to Harry Creek, ex-cop, war hero and hacker extraordinaire.

Historia4 out of 5 stars 139
Economists insist that recovery is at hand, yet unemployment remains high, real estate values continue to sink, and governments stagger under record deficits. The End of Growth proposes a startling diagnosis: humanity has reached a fundamental turning point in its economic history. The expansionary trajectory of industrial civilization is colliding with non-negotiable natural limits.

Not one of Audible's best
Revisado: 06-30-14
What would have made The End of Growth better?
The performance is terrible. I ended up listening to it at 2x speed.
Would you be willing to try another book from Richard Heinberg? Why or why not?
Probably, but not without listening to the sample
How could the performance have been better?
A dead ferret could have done better.

A disturbing object is discovered in the Capitol Building. The object is an ancient invitation, meant to usher its recipient into a long-lost world of hidden esoteric wisdom.

Loved this book. Well read, it stays interesting to the end. If you're a sucker for symbolism and old world mysteries you'll enjoy this one

In The Next 100 Years, Friedman turns his eye on the future. Drawing on a profound understanding of history and geopolitical patterns dating back to the Roman Empire, he shows that we are now, for the first time in half a millennium, experiencing the dawn of a new historical cycle.

Entertaining, thought-provoking, but lopsided
Revisado: 06-03-11
t's an american-centric view of the world, with forecasts based on historical and geopolitical motivations. Very interesting perspectives, to be taken with a pinch of salt. Good book.

An addictive series

Loved the book - onto my fifth Dresden book. What an engaging series. Word of warning - this gets fairly graphic. Definitely not one to listen to in the car with the kids
