Historia
Spanning the years 1900 to 1977, The Covenant of Water is set in Kerala, on South India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala’s long-existing Christian community, grieving the death of her father, is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time.

This is how books ought to be written.
Revisado: 05-10-24
The author takes words and make beautiful pictures in the mind. A fantastic life voyage brought to life by the author.
Mr. Verghese is a master at using the English language to convey emotions and his narration only makes it better. He is a superb author and just as talented narrated.
One of the best books I've ever listened to.

Historia
After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

Makes no sense
Revisado: 03-28-24
I'm over halfway through this book and still don't know what it's about. It bounces around with no apparent theme.

Historia
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Catch a tiger by its toe. It's seared into Atlee Pine's memory: the kidnapper's chilling rhyme as he chose between six-year-old Atlee and her twin sister, Mercy. Mercy was taken. Atlee was spared. She never saw Mercy again. Three decades after that terrifying night, Atlee Pine works for the FBI. She's the lone agent assigned to the Shattered Rock, Arizona resident agency, which is responsible for protecting the Grand Canyon. So when one of the Grand Canyon's mules is found stabbed to death at the bottom of the canyon - and its rider missing - Pine is called in to investigate.

It was a struggle to finish

Female FBI agent with pistol takes out 1,000 terrorists with machine guns.
This could have been a decent story but for being too predictable and mediocre narration. It was all I could do to get through it.

Historia
In the skies above the Pacific, a U.S. Navy F/A-18 from the USS Abraham Lincoln blows up. The question is why? But answers aren’t easy to find. When another jet mysteriously explodes in midair, the president can no longer ignore reality: U.S. forces are under attack. But by whom? While the military and intelligence communities race for answers, the president calls on ex-CIA operatives and former military pilots Scott Dalton and Jackie Sullivan to launch their own investigation.

Not a bad story, terrible narration
Revisado: 06-01-23
The narration of different characters is "cringeworthy." The story itself could be good if read in a different way. I'm having a hard time listening to this one.

Historia
Jonas kills people...with his mind. He reaches out, focuses for a moment, and feels a snap of pain between his eyes. Then his target falls over dead: a hole in the center of their brains. The cause of death is unknown to all aside from Jonas, and his lone companion, Bubbles, a sarcastic AI with aspirations to be more human, or a serial killer. One of the two. Maybe both. Jonas calls his ability...mind bullet.

Decent story - silly presentation
Revisado: 05-15-22
Had this story been presented in a more serious light, it might have been OK. Unfortunately the story was a constant series of sarcasm and silly humor and detracted from the story. Just felt pretty silly to me.

Very disappointed
Revisado: 10-14-21
I'm through 39 chapters of this book and it's still in the character development stage. It started out with a bang, but soon fizzled into a laundry list of people and their lives. Very poorly done for a supposed action novel.

Silly
Revisado: 07-20-21
Far too much introspection by the main character. Not a bad story line but the personal conversations the main character has with himself are over the top. Sorry that RC Bray took this one on.

This could have been a good listen had there been a better narrator who didn't sound like a teenager.
