Historia
Fight is the backstage story of bloodsport politics in its rawest form—the clawing, backstabbing, and rabble-rousing that drove Donald Trump into the White House and Democrats into the wilderness. At every turn, the combatants went for the jugular, whether they were facing down rivals in the other party or their own.

Standard MSM portrait I would have expected. But still worth listening too.
Revisado: 04-10-25
I have listened to the authors two previous campaign books and this book is consistent with those.
The obvious bias was expected so I was able to look past it and focus on the tick tock of the reporting.

Historia
From two former military officers and award-winning authors comes a chillingly authentic geopolitical thriller that imagines a naval clash between the US and China in the South China Sea in 2034 - and the path from there to a nightmarish global conflagration.

Great premise, but falls short.
Revisado: 05-07-21
Outstanding premise but this book just falls short in my opinion. It’s very blandly written. The plot twists are completely obvious and can be seen from a mile away, but it really needed to be longer and have more detail. With the author being a former Admiral, I would have liked the battle and political sections being blown out further. Finally I’m not a fan of ensemble style casts of narrators. Two of the narrators are tough to listen to as they are subpar performances.

The definitive Star Wars novel!
Revisado: 12-22-18
Darth Plagueis is outstanding. A great story that really sets up the prequels in a new way and makes the Episode I-III story arc far more interesting. A must purchase for an serious Star Wars fan. I hope someday this story will be considered Cannon - it’s that good.

Historia
In May 1987, Colorado Senator Gary Hart seemed a lock for the party’s presidential nomination and led George H. W. Bush by double digits in the polls. Then, in one tumultuous week, rumors of marital infidelity and a newspaper’s stakeout of Hart’s home resulted in a media frenzy the likes of which had never been seen. Through the spellbindingly reported story of the senator’s fall from grace, Matt Bai, Yahoo News columnist and former chief political correspondent for The New York Times Magazine, reveals the Hart affair to be far more than one man’s tragedy.

Fascinating and worth listening to
Revisado: 01-10-18
Great book that provides fascinating insight into the way the discourse over our public affairs has utterly deteriorated into tabloid gotcha garbage nonsense.
It’s a little bit of a slow starter but stick with it, it’s well worth getting all the way to the end.
Rob Shapiro is outstanding as usual.

Historia
New York, 1888. Gas lamps still flicker in the city streets, but the miracle of electric light is in its infancy. The person who controls the means to turn night into day will make history - and a vast fortune. A young untested lawyer named Paul Cravath, fresh out of Columbia Law School, takes a case that seems impossible to win. Paul's client, George Westinghouse, has been sued by Thomas Edison over a billion-dollar question: Who invented the lightbulb and holds the right to power the country?

Really interesting, creative, and a great listen
Revisado: 06-06-17
I listened to this book in 4 days. I couldn't put it down. In a creative and thoroughly engrossing way, Graham Moore tells the story of the electrification of America. He brings some humanity to the people who shaped the modern world for generations to come. A must listen. If you have seen the History Channel series The Men Who Built America you will love this book.

Historia
It was never supposed to be this close. And of course she was supposed to win. How Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election to Donald Trump is the tragic story of a sure thing gone off the rails. For every Comey revelation or hindsight acknowledgment about the electorate, no explanation of defeat can begin with anything other than the core problem of Hillary's campaign - the candidate herself.

Good tick-tock of the campaign chronology and events - told from Democrats perspective
Revisado: 04-23-17
If you're a political junkie or supporter of Clinton you'll enjoy this book. However, this is written totally and completely from the view of the mainstream media in that everything Trump does is bad, his supporters are all Neanderthal misogynists, and that the staff let Hillary down instead of putting responsibility on the candidate.
