The new, impeccable translation and adaptation of the Epic of Persian Kings by Ahmad Sadri brought to life a host of heroic characters and wove their adventures into a thrilling story spanning thousands of years. Containing four grand tragedies and four beautiful love stories, the audiobook is currently going into its fifth edition. It has been a smashing success. We are delighted to present a 12-hour audio experience of this text (performed by the award-winning voice actor, Marc Thompson) against the backdrop of evocative sound design and music editing of Hamid Rahmanian the creator of the Shahnameh project.

More like Audio-Theatre than traditional Audiobook

There is a lot of dramatized acting with music and sound effects, which adds to the story rather well. There were only a few voice acting parts I found to be over the top or bad fits.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 75
An epic story of science and technology at the very limits of human understanding: the monumental race to build the first atomic weapons.
Rich in personality, action, confrontation, and deception, The First War of Physics is the first fully realized popular account of the race to build humankind's most destructive weapon. The book draws on declassified material, such as MI6's Farm Hall transcripts, coded Soviet messages cracked by American cryptographers in the Venona project, and interpretations by Russian scholars of documents from the Soviet archives.

What did you love best about First War of Physics?
Very well written accounts of the events surrounding WWII and the Cold War.
What did you like best about this story?
The story would focus on the minor interactions and activities within the laboratory, then pan out into the political strife that would stir as a result. Leading with well known historic events, then detailing personal stories of the people involved was truly fascinating.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
This book took a very long time to listen through. It was great for my long commutes to work and weekend travels. This sort of read has taught me to value my traffic time, no joke.
Any additional comments?
As expected, this book is more world/political history than science history, but still a very lean mix of the two. I would recommend this book to anyone of any field, professional or academic.
