Historia
In this monumental and provocative history, Patrick Buchanan makes the case that, if not for the blunders of British statesmen - Winston Churchill first among them - the horrors of two world wars and the Holocaust might have been avoided and the British Empire might never have collapsed into ruins.

Thought provoking and well researched
Revisado: 06-10-24
I was left with a better understsnding of the true effects of WW2 on the world.
The author paints a very telling picture of how war, an unnecessary war, can lead to the collapse of empires and the rise of despots.
There was a ton of citations supporting the authors position and he also provided counter arguments and challenged those positions with the cold and ruthless logic of someone who truly believes America has taken a wrong turn in its foreign policy.
I'm not as on board with the conservative mindset about preserving the country, however, it paints in my opinion, a very telling view of how the United States has taken on the same behavior that lead to the fall of the British Empire.

Historia
Supreme Grand Master Azrael summons Lazarus and his Fifth Company to honour an old debt on the Knight world of Reis – a planet upon which the warp has set its hungry gaze. But Lazarus is not so sure Reis wants to be saved – its Knights are long lost, its governance is dogged by political strife, and internecine conflict hampers the world’s defence against an ancient evil. An evil which, like Lazarus himself, refuses to die.

A good performance with an interesting story
Revisado: 04-26-24
The narrator did a good job with the characters and the story took a little while to get going. Over all I was happy, but I'm looking forward to the next Dark Angel novel now that the Lion is back.

Historia
In the void and upon the worlds of Greater Ultramar, the battle for the Imperium continues. Intent on rebuilding his home realm and using it as a base to reconstruct the ravaged stellar empire of mankind, the returned primarch, Roboute Guilliman, proceeds with his war to drive Mortarion and his Death Guard Traitor Legion from the domain of the Ultramarines. But when Guilliman brings his brother to battle upon the diseased plains of Parmenio, the intervention of a greater power in their fraternal struggle threatens to upend the Imperial Regent’s understanding of the galaxy.

It was worth listening to at least once
Revisado: 03-24-24
The performance and the writing were really good. It's not LotR or Game of Thrones. It's a story set in a bloody universe where the lies of a father have allowed humanity to be twisted into a type dysfunctional family affair.
The lore is Awesome!

Historia
Enough Already: Time to End the War on Terrorism is a masterly history of these chaotic, tragic and above all futile conflicts, ranging with his usual excoriating accuracy from Mali to Pakistan, from Iraq to Yemen by way of Syria and Libya. Millions are dead, disabled or languish desperately far from their homes as the direct result of our blunders, bewilderment and outright malicious stupidity.

Historia
Anarchism has been both a vision of a peaceful, cooperative society — and an ideology of revolutionary terror. Since the term itself — anarchism — is a negation, there is a great deal of disagreement on what the positive alternative would look like. The black flag comes in many colors.

Historia
In 2017, a routine network television investigation led to a story only whispered about: one of Hollywood’s most powerful producers was a predator, protected by fear, wealth, and a conspiracy of silence. As Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives, from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies, mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career, following his every move, and weaponizing an account of abuse in his own family.

My hat's off to the author and everyone that helped bring enough information together to illustrate how victims are silenced by powerful people and organizations.

Historia
How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to each other that isn't true? While tackling these questions, Malcolm Gladwell was not solely writing a book for the page. He was also producing for the ear. In the audiobook version of Talking to Strangers, you’ll hear the voices of people he interviewed - scientists, criminologists, military psychologists.

Historia
From the heterodox right wing of the 1940s to the Buchanan/Rothbard alliance of 1992 and all the way through to what he witnessed personally in Charlottesville, The New Right is a thorough firsthand accounting of the concepts, characters and chronology of this widely misunderstood sociopolitical phenomenon. Today’s fringe is tomorrow’s orthodoxy. As entertaining as it is informative, The New Right is required listening for every American across the spectrum who would like to learn more about the past, present and future of our divided political culture.

Revisado: 05-26-19
When I became politically active in 2012 I gravitated to the libertarians I met online. To some degree Mr. Malices book has brought back my thought and feelings about what happened in the movement over the last 7 years.
Thank you for a truly great book.

Nothing makes traditional left and right kiss and make up faster than when they're faced with an articulate libertarian. Avert your eyes from this dangerous extremist, citizen! Government is composed of wise public servants who innocently pursue the common good! In Real Dissent, Tom Woods demolishes some of the toughest critics of libertarianism in his trademark way.

Dr. Woods podcasts and guest were very influental in the way I started to think after 2012.
Real Dissent is a wonderful retelling of some of my favorite episodes and a reminder to finish some of Dr. Woods other books.
