Good effort from a first-time sci-fi writer.

AI isn’t my favorite narrator but it’s getting better. The story is very intriguing and I’ll be looking forward to the next volume in the series.

Jack Ryan is a favorite of mine.

Revisado: 04-29-23

Have read the book, seen the film, etc. I wasn’t surprised by anything in the book, but I didn’t notice the book was read by Scott Brick until after I downloaded it. There are a lot of great readers on Audible, but Mr Brick is probably one of my favorites. I’ve listened to many of his narrations, but this is the first that has required accents. He nailed it.

Great insights into a familiar story

Revisado: 03-29-23

Have lived in Utah and gone to school with several members of the Smart family, I’ve always been interested in this story. This version provides a rich background and context for what her family went through. I also greatly appreciated the insights into humanity and human relationships that came from the parallel experience with Baker Paxton. Our judgement and treatment of others would be much better if we knew their stories.

It was the best of Dickens, it was the… well it just was. I love this story and this was an excellent performance of it.

Good story.

I’ve read a lot of Grisham and usually enjoy his work. I think this was one of his better efforts.

Excellent production

Revisado: 09-12-22

To be honest, some Audible Originals stink pretty badly. This one, however, was awesome. The was fun, entertaining, and thought provoking. Billy Crystal’s genius is clear in the writing. The cast was fantastic. I listen to a lot classic radio dramas and this was one of the best I’ve heard in a long time. Loved it.

Great course.

Revisado: 02-17-22

This is a fascinating lecture series for Catholic and non-Catholic alike (I’m of the non-Catholic persuasion). The popes are part of world history no matter what your religious feeling. I appreciated the expertise and fairness of Father O’Malley. He wasn’t trying to preach or convert to Catholicism, but gave the institution a fair historical coverage, including both positive and negative aspects.

Fun to get to know the brothers better.

Revisado: 11-17-21

My only complaint about the book is the language in a few spots(fortunately not too many). I may be old fashioned but I’ve never heard a single sentence in English that was enhanced by an f-bomb that couldn’t have been expressed equally powerfully, especially by someone as eloquent as one of the Howard brothers, with other word choices. It’s a little hard to hear vulgar language in Ritchie Cunningham’s voice.

Unger isn’t the least biased biographer

Revisado: 11-13-21

It’s a very interesting history of an important jurist. But Mr Unger treated Aaron Burr as an unsung hero and Thomas Jefferson as a traitor. I think real history recognizes both their flaws and their contributions.

Great Listen

Revisado: 10-11-21

I’ve listened to several historical biographies by Unger, and honestly I don’t think he’s my favorite, but he exceeded my expectations with this one. I thoroughly enjoyed this one. His analysis of Washington’s impact on the shaping of the presidency was insightful and informative. Great book for anyone interested in Washington, the Presidency, or Revolutionary figures.
