Historia
The number one New York Times best-selling story about American Olympic triumph in Nazi Germany, the inspiration for the PBS documentary The Boys of '36, broadcast to coincide with the 2016 Summer Olympics and the 80th anniversary of the boys' gold medal race. Out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times - the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant.

Loved the background history to this story. Learned a lot about rowing and insights into the US and European history of the time. The boys’ backgrounds and courage was amazing. The hardships they overcame to compete on this team were amazing.

Historia
The epic and highly anticipated conclusion to the listener-favorite series that had countless Audible listeners (and employees) hooked from the very first Bob - featuring, as always, a flawless performance from the inimitable Ray Porter. Being a sentient spaceship really should be more fun. But after spreading out through space for almost a century, Bob and his clones just can't stay out of trouble. They've created enough colonies so humanity shouldn't go extinct.

Historia
There's a reason We Are Legion was named Audible's Best Science Fiction Book of 2016: Its irresistibly irreverent wit! Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure. The first item on his to-do list: Spending his newfound windfall. On an urge to splurge, he signs up to have his head cryogenically preserved in case of death. Then he gets himself killed crossing the street. Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

Wonderfully fresh story idea
Revisado: 07-05-23
Great characters here; brought to life well, as usual, by the excellent narrator, Roy Porter. Any space nerd will love the adventures and wonderful new worlds you’ll find here. Wasn’t sure what to expect from this unique concept but wasn’t at all disappointed.

Historia
For most of the last hundred years, Biloxi was known for its beaches, resorts, and seafood industry. But it had a darker side. It was also notorious for corruption and vice, everything from gambling, prostitution, bootleg liquor, and drugs to contract killings. The vice was controlled by small cabal of mobsters, many of them rumored to be members of the Dixie Mafia.

Not sure what I was expecting but this wasn’t it. A story about Gulf Coast criminals and corruption versus brave lawyers.

Historia
Bellamy Lyston was only 12 years old when her older sister Susan was killed on a stormy Memorial Day. Bellamy's fear of storms is a legacy of the tornado that destroyed the crime scene along with her memory of what really happened during the day's most devastating moments. Now, 18 years later, Bellamy has written a sensational, best-selling novel based on Susan's murder. Because the book was inspired by the tragic event that still pains her family, she published it under a pseudonym to protect them from unwanted publicity. But an opportunistic reporter for a tabloid newspaper discovers that the book is based on fact....

Intriguing story line that keeps you guessing until the very end. Wonderful character development; you really get to like the three main characters and their stories. I’ll listen to this one again.

Historia
When an experiment to study quantum uncertainty goes spectacularly wrong, physics student Bill Rustad and his friends find that they have accidentally created an inter-dimensional portal. They connect to Outland - an alternate Earth with identical geology, but where humans never evolved. The group races to establish control of the portal before the government, the military, or evildoers can take it away. Then everything changes when the Yellowstone supervolcano erupts in an explosion large enough to destroy civilization and kill half the planet.

Interesting premise here
Revisado: 01-14-23
I liked the characters here and the story line wasn’t entirely implausible. Scary to consider how we would actually react to this scenario in real life. Sadly, I think the predictions here would likely come true.
Good guys, bad guys, geeks, and nerds. What’s not to like?

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Pure joy! I love this story.
Revisado: 12-29-22
Andy Weir has done it again. Such a fantastic story and brought to life by the great Ray Porter. His narration makes you feel like you are in space with Grace.
This is a science, space nerd’s dream of a story. You can feel Grace’s pain and confusion as he wakes in space. As the story slowly unfolds, you are right there with him. You meet and come to also enjoy the many characters he meets and befriends. I love the back and forth dialogue between him and Rocky.
The ending is unexpected but true to the story line. You will come to feel like you, too, are in space as these characters fight against tall odds in a harsh environment unknown to either of them.
I know this is one book I will listen to many times.

Historia
The 1950s are on the horizon, and Archer is in dire need of a fresh start after a nearly fatal detour in Poca City. So Archer hops on a bus and begins the long journey out west to California, where rumor has it there is money to be made if you’re hard-working, lucky, criminal - or all three. Along the way, Archer stops in Reno, where a stroke of fortune delivers him a wad of cash and an eye-popping blood-red 1939 Delahaye convertible - plus a companion for the final leg of the journey, an aspiring actress named Liberty Callahan who is planning to try her luck in Hollywood.

Not into this style of genre

I love most of the Baldacci books but this one fell flat for me. Not into this old-timey style from the 50’s.

Historia
The sequel to the number one Audible Best Seller Earthcore, Mount Fitz Roy continues the tale of Patrick O’Doyle and Bertha Lybrand, who were part of the horror show that occurred far below the mountains of Utah. They learn that the "mother of all motherlodes” discovered there was not unique, that there is another deposit similar to it three miles beneath the towering peak of Cerro Chaltén on the disputed border between Chile and Argentina. O'Doyle, a middle-aged former member of a disgraced black-ops unit, gets his aging team back together to go after this fortune.

Wow, what a sequel to Earthcore!
Revisado: 12-30-20
This was so long in coming but so worth the wait. Absolutely one of Scott’s best creations. From the beginning, he kept surprising us with new facts from where Earthcore ended. He then proceeded to thrill us once again.
I really enjoyed the narrator here, too. He does a good job with the various characters and keeps your heart pumping with anticipation.
Just loved it!
