Historia
From one of our most acclaimed and original colonial historians, a groundbreaking book - the first to look at the critical "long year" of 1774 and the revolutionary change that took place from December 1773 to mid-April 1775, from the Boston Tea Party and the First Continental Congress to the Battles of Lexington and Concord.

History from Every Point of View
Revisado: 12-06-24
This was an incredibly well researched book, with accounts and records from a fantastically interesting period in American history. I especially loved the way the audience is given the point of view from the other side of the revolution, from within the colonies. It was an aspect I never considered, being fed the idea that loyalists were dishonorable traitors. This book brought to light just how gray things really were back then.

Ranges from creepy to thoughtful
Revisado: 10-31-24
This was a very well written novel and the performance by the narrator was great. I'm a fan of anthologies so this was right up my alley. I also prefer subtly creepy stories over in your face type of horror. Great book!

Awesome dystopian sci-fi
Revisado: 08-19-24
I'm a sucker for dystopian sci-fi with lots of lore and world building! This one was a real trip. I've known of the book since I was a kid and I finally got around to it, it did not disappoint. I also loved listening to the smooth voice of the reader.

Historia
A middle-aged man returns to his childhood home to attend a funeral. He is drawn to the farm at the end of the road, where, when he was seven, he encountered a most remarkable girl, Lettie Hempstock. Forty years earlier, a man committed suicide in a stolen car at this farm at the end of the road. Like a fuse on a firework, his death lit a touchpaper and resonated in unimaginable ways. The darkness was unleashed, something scary and thoroughly incomprehensible to a little boy. And Lettie - magical, comforting, wise beyond her years - promised to protect him, no matter what.

A fantastic story

There is something about Neil Gaiman's prose that really puts you in the moment, from the mundane to the terrifying. This was a lovely listen.

Astoundingly entertaining
Revisado: 05-01-24
I didn't expect for this to be such a fantastic read, the way the entire story is framed is incredibly interesting. I never got taken out of the story as the format was so good at keeping my attention. This is one of the few audiobooks I could listen to all the way through!

Historia
When Norm Macdonald, one of the greatest stand-up comics of all time, was approached to write a celebrity memoir, he flatly refused, calling the genre “one step below instruction manuals.” Norm then promptly took a two-year hiatus from stand-up comedy to live on a farm in northern Canada. When he emerged he had under his arm a manuscript, a genre-smashing book about comedy, tragedy, love, loss, war, and redemption. When asked if this was the celebrity memoir, Norm replied, “Call it anything you damn like.”

Incredibly Funny
Revisado: 04-18-24
If you were expecting a sort of tell-all story or historical account, you'll promptly forget that and enjoy the absolutely hilarious writing and even better delivery of Norm MacDonald. There are moments in this that actually made me scream with laughter!

Historia
Empire of the Summer Moon spans two astonishing stories. The first traces the rise and fall of the Comanches, the most powerful Indian tribe in American history. The second entails one of the most remarkable narratives ever to come out of the Old West: the epic saga of the pioneer woman Cynthia Ann Parker and her mixed-blood son, Quanah, who became the last and greatest chief of the Comanches.

An incredible true story that pulls no punches

I am completely astounded by this phenomenal book. It is written so well that the visceral moments made me feel more than any film ever could. The narration is terrific and a pleasure to listen to. I can't recommend this enough.

An epic story that keeps you hooked
Revisado: 02-14-24
I think it's a testament to Frank Harbert's writing that after all these years his story can be told in such a gripping way. I was a big fan of the narration and the voice acting, though the only nitpick I have is that the voice acting was rather sparse. Still, I can't not give this audiobook a perfect score for being so well produced.
