Thorough, interesting, good sound quality...having purchased a lecture series that was none of that I'd say you could do much worse.

The title of Ravenmaster is a serious title indeed, and after decades of serving the Queen, Yeoman Warder Christopher Skaife took on the added responsibility of caring for the infamous ravens. In The Ravenmaster, he lets listeners in on his life as he feeds his birds raw meat and biscuits soaked in blood, buys their food at Smithfield Market, and ensures that these unusual, misunderstood, and utterly brilliant corvids are healthy, happy, and ready to captivate the four million tourists who flock to the Tower every year.

Interesting and likeable
Revisado: 01-23-20
Learning a tad bit about raven behavior and about the ravens who make the Tower Of London their home was interesting. The author of this book, who is the Ravenmaster at the TOL, was pretty neat himself...picture kind of a regular hardworking bloke who just happens to have one of the coolest and unique job ever. It's a light read (or listen) and was just the thing to help me unwind, but now my curiosity is piqued and I have to find out more on raven behavior! Thanks, Audible

Human beings are primates, and primates are political animals. Our brains, therefore, are designed not just to hunt and gather but also to help us get ahead socially, often via deception and self-deception. But while we may be self-interested schemers, we benefit by pretending otherwise. The less we know about our own ugly motives, the better - and thus, we don't like to talk, or even think, about the extent of our selfishness. This is "the elephant in the brain".

This book is pretty much what the description promises with good narration. I am glad to have returned another book in exchange for this one, thanks Audible!

How do trees live? Do they feel pain or have awareness of their surroundings? Research is now suggesting trees are capable of much more than we have ever known. In The Hidden Life of Trees, forester Peter Wohlleben puts groundbreaking scientific discoveries into a language everyone can relate to.

I really enjoyed learning about how trees strive to survive in this interesting book that is both scientific and informal. Well written AND well narrated...a combination that is sadly unique among other books I've purchased from Audible.

Do you have a person in your life that is just a little off and by a little off, I mean that they're full blown strange? Are they living like an emperor in their world and using everyone around them like pawns? Are they quite possibly the smartest person you know but not living a life that is actually fulfilling by normal standards? Are they nice to you, but only when they really want something from you? You may have found yourself a sociopath.

Behold the Void includes nine stories of terror that huddle in the dark space between cosmic horror and the modern weird, between old-school hard-edged horror of the 1980s and the stylistic prose of today's literary giants.

loved it! i'll for sure revisit this book when some future purchase disappoints; both narrator and author make me jealous with their talent.

In this unique book, Peter Vronsky documents the psychological, investigative, and cultural aspects of serial murder, beginning with its first recorded instance in ancient Rome, through 15th-century France, up to such notorious contemporary cases as cannibal/necrophile Ed Kemper, Henry Lee Lucas, Ted Bundy, and the emergence of what he classifies as "the serial rampage killer" such as Andrew Cunanan.

Interesting book with good narration
Revisado: 01-07-17
I found this book well researched with professional audio and good narration...it did not sound like a seventh grader reading his book report. If you've listened to other audiobooks in this genre and appreciate the meaning in what I've just said, you may find it satisfying to listen and contrast for yourself this book with some others you may have had the misfortune to purchase.
