In the year 2045, reality is an ugly place. The only time Wade Watts really feels alive is when he’s jacked into the OASIS, a vast virtual world where most of humanity spends their days. When the eccentric creator of the OASIS dies, he leaves behind a series of fiendish puzzles, based on his obsession with the pop culture of decades past. Whoever is first to solve them will inherit his vast fortune—and control of the OASIS itself.

Surprisingly good.
Revisado: 04-24-15
I only bought this because of the good reviews. Overall they were quite accurate. The story is very imaginative and holds you in suspense even if you're not a geak...and didn't grow up in that time period. Will is a good narrator. Although he doesn't change his voice very much with each character, it is still fairly easy to tell which character is speaking and his pace is perfect. Worth the listen.

Where does Midnight Riot rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
One of my favourites. I listened to all the others so far in the series and hope there are more to come. Unique, funny, entertaining and the narrator is marvellous with all the right expressions and voices. Passed this to my 20 year old son and he loved it as well.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Since the story is told from Peter's perspective it's hard to have a different favourite character.
Have you listened to any of Kobna Holdbrook-Smith’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have listened to the narrator only for this series but definitely would try others he does.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plainold "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

This was fabulous! Might be my favourite listen. Great story. The narrator absolutely made it. I don't think I would have enjoyed reading it as much as listening to his performance. I've recommended this to friends.

Picking up from where his first memoir left off, Dr Tom is back with more of his gloriously eccentric stories. Still based as a locum in his beloved Scotland, he now takes time out from the surgery for stints as a medical researcher, travelling wherever he is called, from Rio to Jerusalem, Vienna to Singapore.

I enjoyed the continuation of his experiences. There are fewer stories of his practice and more of his life in industry but he writes and reads with good humour and interest. I loved it.

Heartwarming and gloriously eccentric, Dr Tom's stories capture the beauty of the Lowlands, the joys and sorrows of its inhabitants and the richly rewarding experiences of life as a Scottish country doctor.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 9
Doctors, nurses, medics and stretcher-bearers must venture wherever someone is injured and the cry for assistance goes up. Their job is to put themselves in the heart of danger – to risk their own lives as they try to save the dying. War at its rawest is their domain, an ugly place of shattered bodies, severed limbs and death. They fulfil society’s vital pledge to its warriors that they will not be abandoned on the battlefield. Yet, more often than not, what they do goes unnoticed – except by those who survive because of their extraordinary courage and skill.

What did you love best about Medic?
This book was never boring. The first hand statements and stories woven into a wealth of information was so well done. The performance was fabulous. I'll listen to this one again.
