Historia
Beyond the rehashed clichés, this book inspires us to rediscover Diogenes' philosophical legacy—whether it be the challenge to the established order, the detachment from materialism, the choice of a return to nature, or the formulation of a cosmopolitan ideal strongly rooted in the belief that virtue is better revealed in action than in theory.

Historia
For more than two centuries, the land of Albion has been ruled by the supposedly benevolent Watchmaker, who imposes precision on every aspect of life. Young Owen Hardy from the village of Barrel Arbor dreams of seeing the big city and the breathtaking Clockwork Angels that dispense wisdom to the people, maybe even catching a glimpse of the Watchmaker himself. He watches the steamliners drift by, powered by alchemical energy, as they head toward Crown City....

Great story based off Rush’s Album of the same name
Revisado: 11-09-24
The collaboration between Neil & Kevin bring about a wondrous adventure (the heroes journey) in this novel. I enjoyed the ups and downs of the main protagonist and his frequent challenges. Being a Rush fan, I also enjoyed the little references throughout, such as the names of past Rush songs (grace under pressure, natural sciences, freewill). Highly recommended for anyone in need of a great story

Historia
From the author of the landmark Secret Teachings of All Ages comes two classic works on the mysterious origins and unique mission of America: The Secret Destiny of America and America’s Assignment with Destiny. Focusing on often-forgotten moments in history, Manley P. Hall proposes that there was a Great Plan put forth 1,000 years before our nation’s founding: Humanistic and mystical organizations wished for the continent to be the location for an experiment in self-government and religious freedom.

Great book, terrible narrator
Revisado: 09-21-24
I’m not sure why, but there are many audio errors throughout this audiobook in which the author keeps repeating sentences. At first, it wasn’t a big deal until it started becoming more noticeable to the point of annoyance.
If you’re going to record an audio for a book, do your due diligence and prepare the audiobook before hand
Overall, the book itself is great. It just needs a better narrator.

Revisado: 09-14-24
Garrett does an excellent job in breaking down so many benefits and issues in forming business entities and protecting your assets. There’s lots of insight/value to be had in reading/listening to this book. I highly recommend this to entrepreneurs looking to start and operate your business. I listened to this audiobook while reading the physical copy at the same time, which helps in retaining the concepts and many examples Garrett provides. I’ll be investing into his other books as well. Thanks Garrett!

Historia
It's all about you. You have one brief life, and the question you face is: What will you make of it? Will you go through the motions of living, and throw away your life doing what you're "supposed" to do? Or will you set ambitious goals and do everything you can to make the most of your life? Will you betray your life—or honor it?

Provides great value in the realms of life, logic, and reason!
Revisado: 09-09-24
I’m glad I came across this book on the plus catalogue. Although the audiobook is narrated by an AI voice, the content within its chapters, bring great insight into life, logic, reason, and it’s application in your life! The content in this audio stems from the famous philosopher, Ayn Rand, and her objectivist philosophy, and the author helps to break it down in a more easy to understand approach, perspective, and application
Don’t let the title fool you. This isn’t about how to be a narcissistic, egotistical person. You’ll find great insight here, whether you know about Ayn Rand’s philosophy or not.
I plan on keeping this in my library as reference to look back upon and I will be purchasing the physical copy as well. I look forward to the author using a better narrator voice in the future, not AI.
All around, this is worth listening to (or reading)!!

For as old as the recordings sound, this audiobook was actually pretty good. Despite this info being available in many other books/audiobooks, I couldn’t help but enjoy Norman’s storytelling and overall narration. Highly recommended!

In Dangerous Personalities, former FBI profiler Joe Navarro shows listeners how to identify the four most common "dangerous personalities", and analyze how much of a threat each one can be: the Narcissist, the Predator, the Paranoid, and the Unstable Personality. Along the way, listeners learn how to protect themselves both immediately and long-term - as well as how to recover from the trauma of being close to such a destructive force.

Great information, could use a better narrator
Revisado: 08-17-24
This audiobook has provided great insight into the 4 dangerous personalities, with countless real life examples of each. I would highly recommend this to anyone to bring more awareness to this overlooked topic
While the content and context of this audiobook was insightful & helpful, the narrator’s voice seemed dull & boring. There are certain areas where I sped up the listening speed because of the monotony of the narration at only 1x speed.
Overall, I highly recommend this audiobook

Historia
Bestselling author Michael Maloney makes the case that while stocks, real estate, crypto, bonds, and nearly every major asset class have boomed, gold and silver have been largely ignored, and are now among the world’s last, and most, undervalued assets. But a shift is underway. The coming flight to safety will be staggering… and gold and silver will be the big winners. After accurately predicting the crisis of 2008, Mike now presents unassailable data that an even greater crisis is coming.

Mike Maloney does it again!
Revisado: 08-03-24
After reading Mike’s first book, there was lots of insights gained into precious metals and the truth that goes on with central banks and the overall economy.
This new audio book is a great refresher along with with new insights as where things are today with both precious metals and the economy
Highly recommended especially for someone who is beginning to learn about investing and what “real assets” are. Than you Mike!

Haven’t listened to this audiobook for a while. Doing so again is of great help especially because these principals still hold true even today. These are timeless principles, not a get rich quick scheme. Highly recommended and definitely a good audiobook to reference every so often
