Historia
Jon Reznick is a “ghost”: a black-ops specialist who takes his orders from shadowy handlers, and his salary from the US government. Still mourning the loss of his beloved wife on 9/11, he’s dispatched to carry out a high-level hit. Reznick knows only that it must look like suicide. It’s textbook. But the target is not the man Reznick expected. The whole setup is wrong.

Pretty banal story sort of like an AI wrote it...
Revisado: 01-26-23
Not much here, VERY thin plot. Not contextually accurate for country it's in. Americans don't say "in a fortnight" or "weighs so many stones". Written as though by someone that has read about the US on the internet from the 1950s but had never been there. Could've been way better if they just tried a little harder. Characters had no depth, conversations read like a stereotypical 1950s gumshoe radio show... kinda lame overall.

Historia
Peter Pan is missing; Neverland is in trouble. For adults, that might not matter all that much, but for children—whose dreams and imagination draw strength from the wild god’s power—the magic we take for granted in the real world is in danger of being lost forever. Such is the life of a now grown-up Michael Darling.

Wish there wasnt so much handwringing.
Revisado: 10-28-22
I wanted to like this story and there definite potential here but the main characters wrung their hands constantly and asked non-stop "what do we do now" in EVERY single situation. it was the most wingeing of any adventure. It got to be like Dora the Explorer where they constantly ask the most obvious questions. Made it hard to enjoy the story. The evil characters were the most enjoyable because they weren't simpering idiots constantly.

Historia
Ponyboy can count on his brothers. And on his friends. But not on much else besides trouble with the Socs, a vicious gang of rich kids whose idea of a good time is beating up "greasers" like Ponyboy. At least he knows what to expect, until the night someone takes things too far.

Historia
Meet Ove. He’s a curmudgeon—the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. But behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove’s mailbox, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unexpected friendship, and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul.

Incredible, emotional story
Revisado: 06-16-22
This is an excellent story, it is VERY emotional but it's worth it. There is a premise of suicide which is pretty hard to work around but if you can hang in there it will absolutely redeem itself. it's some of a kind story.

Historia
Imperial Intelligence couldn't find them, the Imperial Fleet couldn't catch them, and local defenses couldn't stop them. It seemed the planet-wrecking pirates were invincible. But they made a big mistake when they raided ex-commando leader Alicia DeVries' quiet home/work, tortured and murdered her family, and then left her for dead. Alicia decided to turn "pirate" herself, and stole a cutting-edge AI ship from the empire to start her vendetta. Her fellow veterans think she's gone crazy, the Imperial Fleet has shoot-on-sight orders. And, of course, the pirates want her dead, too.

Not bad a little slow for a Jack Reacher story
Revisado: 04-15-21
not a bad story but it didn't move along all that well and the lines between the good and the bad are very murky. Not one of Lee Child's best.

Historia
The DFZ, the metropolis formerly known as Detroit, is the world’s most magical city with a population of nine million and zero public safety laws. That’s a lot of mages, cybernetically enhanced chrome heads, and mythical beasties who die, get into debt, and otherwise fail to pay their rent. When they can’t pay their bills, their stuff gets sold to the highest bidder. That’s when they call me. I’m a Cleaner: a freelance mage employed by the DFZ to sort through the mountains of magical junk people leave behind. It’s not a pretty job, or a safe one....

interesting idea, characters are extremely thin
Revisado: 03-23-21
Quavering fearful protagonist was strong enough to survive in the underworld of a post apocalyptic world all on her own but had no strength of will and fell to mewling feebleness when faced with even the slightest hardship. That pairing didn't really make sense. I found her childish approach to critical decisions to be annoyingly frustrating. The story could have been so much more if she wasn't such a wet napkin (even by her own admission) she frankly didn't deserve the breaks she got. Frustrating. She deserved to be a way better character.

Great action, narration pace was hard to listen to
Revisado: 12-02-19
it was a good story but the pedantic pace and tone of the narrator made it very hard to enjoy. I turned up the speed by 10% and it was much better. The story had good action though there were quite a few loose ends that didn't get resolved. Obviously there are more books to this series. I'd listen to another as long as the narrator isn't quite so hard to listen to.
