If we were as tiny as ants to another being, what would they make of our philosophies? The great satirist Voltaire imagines alien visitors who have opinions. Bedtime stories are narrated by the world's most celebrated voices and written with no beginning, middle, or end so you don't stay up to hear what happens next. They're interesting enough to give your mind something to focus on, but delivered in a way that encourages sleep.

An hour filled with room for deep thoughts

Every couple of years, I come back to this story. It's like meditation, which this narrator completely nails.
Glad that I listened this time :)

From the hero whistleblower of the infamous Theranos scam, Thicker than Water is a look at never-before-revealed details behind closed doors at the company, revealing a cautionary tale of corporate bullying, gaslighting, ego, and wealth running amok in Silicon Valley. Tyler Shultz had been in the workforce for less than a year when he emailed Elizabeth Holmes, his employer and the CEO and founder of Theranos, with concerns that the company’s lab practices were faulty, ignored quality control, and were potentially dangerous to patients.

An intimate look at the Theranos disaster
Revisado: 11-28-21
It was a short listen, packed with details of that very specific moment where Theranos had nothing to fear. Until it did.
Glad to hear the story straight from Tyler, it felt like listening to a friend on the porch. A
I think Audible should definitely produce more audio books like this one, it's great!

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

It's not about space, it's about humankind
Revisado: 11-22-21
Andy Weir is at it again with humor-filled things-gone-wrong-in-space stories.
It's charming, very down to earth, funny, and… educational! Listening to this book didn't feel like a class, it felt like learning on-the-job from the world's renowned scientists.
Addiction: There isn't one chapter where something doesn't happen. The odds are always against our characters, and you can't look away.
Storytelling: the narrator is amazing. Great pacing, voices, accents, emotion, it's all there. Then, the sound mixing and SFX are expertly used, but not abused, so you'll feel like it's an audio book and not a picturless TV show.
I feel there were a couple of unresolved science questions, but the biggest ones were answered during the book.
Man, I love this book.
