Historia
The outcast youth Ishmael, succumbing to wanderlust during a dreary New England autumn, signs up for passage aboard a whaling ship. The Pequod sails under the command of the one-legged Captain Ahab, who has set himself on a monomaniacal quest to capture the cunning white whale that robbed him of his leg: Moby-Dick. Capturing life on the sea with robust realism, Melville details the adventures of the colorful crew aboard the ship as Ahab pursues his crusade of revenge, heedless of all cost.

Melville needs an editor.
Revisado: 04-03-24
First off excellent reader, I will listen to anything else he reads.
But never again will I have this battle; reading Moby Dick has been my own personal White Whale since I refused to read it in Highschool. The fact that this alternative agglomeration of over blown word vomit is considered a classic of western literature makes me understand what is wrong with our culture. Racist and abusive of not only the characters but the reader. The only thing that might have made this redeemable was the blatant homoerotic nature of most unreliable narrator since Herodotus, but that is slathered in homophobic selfloathing. It makes me feel better about what I write.

Terrible Sound Design
Revisado: 07-19-23
This might be the best Batman Since the Animated Series, but I can't tell sound design makes it unlistenable. All I could hear, in my headphones and my car was it was raining and people were talking, and someone who may or may not have been Batman was monologuing at that point I gave up good luck.

Historia
The Middle Ages harshly tested every aspect of human perseverance, imagination, and survival. Living conditions were squalid for almost everyone except the ruling elite, and most of the riches of Western culture were preserved in monasteries and on other continents. And into this setting came widespread famines, prolonged wars, and plagues that marked Europe's late medieval period as one of the most harrowing in recorded history.

Out of Date
Revisado: 04-14-22
This is the old story of history professor's not bothering to keep up to date with current know this was ten years out of date when it was recorded and 10 years later it is just more out of date.
Don't waste your time unless you want to know what we "knew" 20 years ago.

Historia
Carol Leonnig has been reporting on the Secret Service for The Washington Post for most of the last decade, bringing to light the secrets, scandals, and shortcomings that plague the agency today - from a toxic work culture to dangerously outdated equipment to the deep resentment within the ranks at key agency leaders, who put protecting the agency’s once-hallowed image before fixing its flaws. But the Secret Service wasn’t always so troubled.

Historia
Captain Keyes is loved by the public but hated by Command. He captains the UHS Providence, an aging supercarrier and the last human ship not dependent on dark tech - technology humanity has used to rule over the galaxy since barely defeating the Ixa in the First Galactic War. Dominance has come at a cost. Over the decades, old allies have grown resentful, and when dark tech itself fails, Captain Keyes’ predictions start coming true: those old allies are now enemies.

Stereotype mil-fic trope fest.
Revisado: 04-18-20
The reader is excellent and I want to listen to more for his voice. The story is predictable and pointless. characters meandering through scenes with no life, no intelligence, and no reasons. Story skips over plot holes and dismisses logic. I want my money and my time back.

Historia
An unprecedented high-level master narrative of America's intelligence wars from the only person ever to helm both the CIA and NSA, at a time of heinous new threats and wrenching change. For General Michael Hayden, playing to the edge means playing so close to the line that you get chalk dust on your cleats. Otherwise, by playing back, you may protect yourself, but you will be less successful in protecting America.

Historia
This is the book the CIA does not want you to read. For the last 60 years, the CIA has maintained a formidable reputation in spite of its terrible record, never disclosing its blunders to the American public. It spun its own truth to the nation while reality lay buried in classified archives. Now, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporter Tim Weiner offers a stunning indictment of the CIA, a deeply flawed organization that has never deserved America's confidence.

Do you want to know why the world is F-ed up this, this book will tell you how the presidents from FDR to GWB used the CIA to fuck up the world. Have you ever wondered why millions chant "Death to America". Here is are the reasons. Inscribed on the walls of the CIA are the words, "By their works you will know them." This has never been so true.

Enemies is the story of how presidents have used the FBI as the most formidable intelligence force in American history. This is the first definitive history of the FBI’s secret intelligence operations, from an author whose work on the Pentagon and the CIA won him the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award.

Well read, with the artist doing the accents of quoted dialog wonderfully. Scary as hell how close we have come to absolute failure and home far we still have to go.
