Historia
A military revolt in southeastern Russia puts a former hard-line Soviet leader in command of a ballistic missile submarine and its arsenal of nuclear weapons. His goal: re-ignite the communist revolution, and recapture the might and glory of the fallen Soviet Union. Without warning, Russia, Japan, and the United States become hostages in a scheme of international nuclear blackmail. When the warheads start falling and people begin dying, no one can pretend that it's a bluff.

Best Military Thriller I've listened to in years!
Revisado: 03-18-22
I was hooked from the beginning to the end. Although I was already a fan of Jeff Edward's and this genre, this story renewed my interest exponentially.
The narration by Craig Good was first class. I'll be looking and listening for more of his work.
The character development was so realistic that I could visualize each character as though I knew them personally. It's difficult for me to select any one person as a favorite because of their realism; I'd lock onto different traits of the cast at different action points of the story.
The story itself was fast-paced and very realistic. The timing of the story corrolated with many of the world events going on today. I found it difficult to take a break from the story as I didn't want to miss anything. I guess you could say I was hooked!
As I mentioned, this was a really great listen and the best use of 1 credit that I can recall. Do yourself a favor and do not miss this action-packed thriller. I'm on to the next Jeff Edward's audiobook.

Historia
Scott Galloway teaches brand strategy at NYU's Stern School of Business, but his most popular lectures deal with life strategy, not business. The Algebra of Happiness: Notes on the Pursuit of Success, Love, and Meaning draws on Professor Galloway's mix of anecdotes and no-BS insight to share hard-won wisdom about life's challenges, along with poignant personal stories.

Historia
A gift from an overseas relative, Graycie, an African Gray parrot, arrives in the Gardiner home not long after the birth of their first child, adding the responsibilities of parrot-hood to their newfound parenthood. Jenny Gardiner and her husband were hoping for a docile, beautifully plumed, Polly-want-a-cracker type of companion - but patchily feathered, scrawny, ill-tempered Graycie was the furthest thing from what they envisioned.

An excellent listen for parrot heads and others.
Revisado: 03-15-20
A really funny book from beginning to end.
The narration was excellent and the story itself is wonderful, comical, and so very real to those who have ever cared for a parrot or other of God's creatures.
As a care giver of an African Grey parrot, I could really relate to the funny moments that occur when human and birds find themselves sharing the same Home spaces. Avery very funny book for everyone.
I'm recommending this book to all of my friends. Hope you won't miss this one.

Historia
Birds are astonishingly intelligent creatures. In fact, according to revolutionary new research, some birds rival primates and even humans in their remarkable forms of intelligence. Like humans, many birds have enormous brains relative to their size. Although small, bird brains are packed with neurons that allow them to punch well above their weight.

A complete study of birds natural intelligence
Revisado: 03-03-20
A very well narrated comprehensive review of avian cognitive abilities.
This book helped me to understand that a bird's episodic memories are linked to their higher level capabilities in mathematics planning, reasoning and other mental abilities.
I'd recommend this book not only to people interested in the many ways birds display their native intelligence, but to anyone wanting to further their own understanding of the Genius of Birds and a macro view of avians place in the natural world.

Historia
Nothing stops former Navy SEAL and Tier One operator John Dempsey from answering the call of duty - including a mission with the highest stakes he's ever faced. When one of the most brazen and lethal acts of terrorism rocks American and Israeli intelligence forces at the highest levels, Dempsey's ultracovert antiterror unit, Ember, mobilizes. But this operation isn't just a retaliatory strike by Ember; it's a mission of vengeance for Dempsey.

With authoritative reporting honed through eight presidencies from Nixon to Obama, author Bob Woodward reveals in unprecedented detail the harrowing life inside President Donald Trump’s White House and precisely how he makes decisions on major foreign and domestic policies.

An Awesome & Inspiring Listen - 5 Star Production!
Revisado: 07-28-18
With over 42 hours of listening time, this book breaks all barriers and preconceptions of just how far an audio book can project a human sensory experience. The author and narrators collaboration have mixed to bring a story of life, often on the fringes, to fruition as a true masterpiece!
The narration redefines first class expectations and I will anxiously look to Mr. Bower for future listens. The descriptive words and phrases did awaken all of my senses, and the cast of characters are brought to life in the most vibrant, intimate manner I've ever experienced in an audio listen.
Initially, the length of this book seemed a bit intimidating but the initial concerns of a listener with more than a touch of ADD, proved to be unfounded; as I dreaded the end of this colorful epic.
Do yourself a favor and don't miss this one, it is in a class by itself! 5-STARS +++

Historia
Are you happy? It may be the wrong question. Most of us think we are relatively happy, while at the same time knowing that we could be happier - maybe even a lot happier. Resisting Happiness is a deeply personal, disarmingly transparent look at why we sabotage our own happiness and what to do about it. Breaking through resistance, Kelly tells us, is essential to becoming the person that God created us to be. What is resistance? It's that sluggish feeling of not wanting to do something that you know is good for you.

A thoroughly enjoyable listen from start to finish. Do yourself a favor and don't miss this one.
