Pulled it back from the brink
Revisado: 09-27-20
I was worried about this series hat it was getting very samey. There was nothing new and I might give up on it. Thankfully this book changed that. I really enjoyed it.

Historia
Hugh van Cuylenburg was a primary school teacher volunteering in northern India when he had a life-changing realisation: despite the underprivileged community the children were from, they were remarkably positive. By contrast, back in Australia Hugh knew that all too many children struggled with depression, social anxieties and mental illness. His own little sister had been ravaged by anorexia nervosa. How was it that young people he knew at home, who had food, shelter, friends and a loving family, struggled with their mental health, while these kids seemed so contented and resilient?

Wow what a book
Revisado: 08-04-20
I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book. It was recommended by a neighbour. I was slightly worried it would be full of hippy stuff.
I could not have been more wrong. It involves simple acts to improve your happiness and wellbeing and more importantly to help give your children tools to prevent/manage anxiety and depression. As a parent of two this is something that important in how I raise them.
It is a simple read through a series of stories which makes it easily relatable.
My only criticism would be where to go
next. I know there are workbooks etc and that he is trying to avoid selling but some more info at the end would have been useful.
Highly recommended. There are people who this book will actually change their lives.

Pretty uneventful
Revisado: 07-12-20
Really enjoyed the Mavericks series so far.
Just felt this one was pretty uneventful. The story was fairly drab and the characters weren’t really fleshed out. Really could have been better.

Historia
In the 20th century Earth sent probes, transmissions, and welcoming messages to the stars. Unfortunately, someone noticed. The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined their vast Empire. Swearing allegiance to our distant alien overlords wasn't the only requirement for survival. We also had to have something of value to trade, something that neighboring planets would pay their hard-earned credits to buy. As most of the local worlds were too civilized to have a proper army, the only valuable service Earth could provide came in the form of soldiers....

A very clever use of alien technology and life through the main characters experiences. Definitely worth a listen

Really enjoyed it. Not what I was expecting
Revisado: 05-19-20
This wasn’t at all what I was expecting. Started as a military book then moved onto a bigger story arc. I can see why people saw it as a Star Wars rip off but I felt the characters were deep enough to keep it different.
I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected. Highly recommended

Historia
From the Audie-nominated narrator of The Martian. In eleven years' time, a million members of an alien race will arrive at Earth. Years before they enter orbit, their approach will be announced by the flare of a thousand flames in the sky, their ships' huge engines burning hard to slow them from the vast speeds needed to cross interstellar space. These foreboding lights will shine in our night sky like new stars, getting ever brighter until they outshine even the sun, casting ominous shadows and banishing the night until they suddenly blink out.

some good info in here but very preachy
Revisado: 02-12-20
there were a few good points in this book. it came across as someone who has been burned by corporate culture. very preachy through a lot of it.
can literally only think of maybe 3 things useful for a small non IT business.

Historia
Thousands of years ago, Earth’s terraforming program took to the stars. On the world they called Nod, scientists discovered alien life - but it was their mission to overwrite it with the memory of Earth. Then humanity’s great empire fell, and the program’s decisions were lost to time. Aeons later, humanity and its new spider allies detected fragmentary radio signals between the stars. They dispatched an exploration vessel, hoping to find cousins from old Earth. But those ancient terraformers woke something on Nod better left undisturbed. And it’s been waiting for them.

good but not great
Revisado: 02-09-20
the first book was mind blowingly good.
it always makes it harder for the second one. this wasn't bad but it wasn't great either.
there is a lot going on. it was hard to follow in places and can get confusing.
also the first book you really get character development. you get to know them and love them. this happens on a really low level with this book.
not bad but not great overall. ending was a bit meh.

wow, what a book!
Revisado: 01-23-20
this was on recommendation from a friend. I didn't really know what to expect.
it really is such an amazing story. it builds the characters so well and you become so attached to them. it all leads to a final crescendo which has you on the edge of your seat. One of the best books I've listened to in a long time.
highly recommended!
