Historia
Never meddle with unidentified spying objects...The year is: The Future. Mars and Earth are like that divorced couple who don’t exactly like each other but have at least stopped fighting in public. Floating somewhere in between them, amid all the garbage and Gene Roddenberry’s ashes, a transport vessel called the SS Jefferson is homeward bound. Its crew might have even made it on time for once, too...

Just so funny! I needed this book!
Revisado: 09-27-20
Ok so let me start by addressing some of the criticisms. Ok I get not liking politics in everything, but let’s be honest, writes have always been political... Shakespeare, Joyce, Vonnegut and Orson Scott Card to name but a few lol. Honestly, blue or red this book is hysterical! I feel badly for anyone who stopped listening just because they didn’t agree with it’s politics (honestly it was a very small part of the book to begin with).
The situations created by the author are brilliantly funny! I could not get enough! The narrator was perfect, and voices spot on!
If you are looking for something silly, creative, compelling and distracting in this crazy day look no further! This book is what the doctor ordered!

Kind of a let down after a long wait.
Revisado: 09-03-20
I am a huge fan of the Dresden Files ! Love the books, audiobooks, graphic novels and even the short lived TV show but..... this one is not finished. After a long wait we got 2/3 of a book.
I get there was a long gap and Jim was probably under a fair amount of pressure to get something out but this was just not finished.
Great story and narration as always. But it will bum you out for sure. If had I known I would have waited for the next book and just bought them both at once.

Needs to move on
Revisado: 03-09-16
Great narrator, full characters... Slow plot and without a spoiler, there is just too much of the big picture they never deal with. Move on or stop teasing us.

When a Druid lives as long as Atticus does, he’s bound to run afoul of a few vampires—make that legions of them. Even his former friend and legal counsel turned out to be a bloodsucking backstabber. Now the toothy troublemakers—led by power-mad pain-in-the-neck Theophilus—are no longer content to live undead and let live. Atticus needs to make a point—and drive it into a vampire’s heart.

Getting a bit dark
Revisado: 03-04-16
I love all of these books but I truly felt this one went much deeper emotionally. I in someways loved the new levels of depth but in other ways miss the zany fun. These books are more escape for me and the darkness was a bit off putting. Still great story, great narrator and wonderful author.

Historia
This course addresses some of the eternal questions that man has grappled with since the beginning of time. What is good? What is bad? Why is justice important? Why is it better to be good and just than it is to be bad and unjust? Most human beings have the faculty to discern between right and wrong, good and bad behavior, and to make judgments over what is just and what is unjust. But why are ethics important to us?

Revisado: 10-03-13
If you could sum up The Modern Scholar in three words, what would they be?
I have a BA in philosophy but it has been years since I have been in a classroom. This wonderful narrative brought all the passion back to me and also brought a lot of old dusty books back off my bookcase. Give it a shot!

Historia
Until about 1800, the West and the Islamic realm were like two adjacent, parallel universes, each assuming itself to be the center of the world while ignoring the other. As Europeans colonized the globe, the two world histories intersected and the Western narrative drove the other one under. The West hardly noticed, but the Islamic world found the encounter profoundly disrupting.

Where does Destiny Disrupted rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I read a great deal on the middle east and spent 8 years living in the area as well. Trust me when I say that this book fills a gap that so many other narratives have missed. If you are interested in learning about Islam from a historical perspective this book is a must!!! Trust me BUY IT!

Angel Crawford is finally starting to get used to life as a brain-eating zombie, but her problems are far from over. Her felony record is coming back to haunt her, more zombie hunters are popping up, and she’s beginning to wonder if her hunky cop-boyfriend is involved with the zombie mafia. Yeah, that’s right—the zombie mafia. Throw in a secret lab and a lot of conspiracy, and Angel’s going to need all of her brainpower—and maybe a brain smoothie as well—in order to get through it without falling apart.

Historia
Filled with unforgettable stories of emperors, generals, and religious patriarchs, as well as fascinating glimpses into the life of the ordinary citizen, Lost to the West reveals how much we owe to the Byzantine Empire that was the equal of any in its achievements, appetites, and enduring legacy. For more than a millennium, Byzantium reigned as the glittering seat of Christian civilization.

So much to learn!
Revisado: 08-23-13
Would you listen to Lost to the West again? Why?
Did you ever read a book that made you realize how truly ignorant you were? Sure you learned bits in pieces along the way in academia but if you were not a history major this is a must listen.
