Historia
It all started with the geese. The Firefly crew is eager to get paid for their latest job, but when payment arrives as a gaggle of geese instead of a purse, their stay on the planet Brome gets an indefinite extension. No matter that the geese will fetch a pretty penny once they get somewhere to sell them. Without coin, they can’t buy fuel, and without fuel, they can’t get offworld. Serenity is stuck.

Historia
Neither cosmic philosopher Lars Soren, hotshot pilot Bianca Petrescu, nor the high priestess Jessica McHugh—Lady Death herself—can say quite where in the galaxy they are. But after an experiment gone horribly wrong, one thing is clear: Asphodel Station isn’t in orbit around Jupiter any longer. Worse, the monsters that live out here—ancient eldritch beings thought only to exist in stories and nightmares—have now been alerted to Earth’s existence.

Too many genres
Revisado: 11-17-24
I never connected with the characters or story. I just didn’t care about the characters in the book. The story lurched about and had too many confusing facets for me.
Ray Porter was spectacular as always!

I found the narration distracting and monotonous.
Revisado: 05-16-24
The story had such great potential, but the presentation was so bland and boring that I couldn’t concentrate on the story.
I would love to hear Ray Porter read this book!

I had such high hopes....
Revisado: 04-07-24
I have been an Audible member for over a decade and love the service. I rarely write negative reviews, but felt I had to on this book. I spend a lot of time on a Mountain Bike and look for longer books because I get into the stories and they last over my summer training periods. I was so excited to see a book on the possible effects of the climate change played out from a decade ago into the future.
The pace of the book is glacial and agonizing and riddled with extended personal interactions that are meaningless to the story. After grinding through several chapters I found myself skipping forward a few minutes to get through another agonizingly boring of a chance meeting with a celebrity in a book store. I realized after several hours that I was dreading listening to another three hours on my ride and skipped forward to see if the later chapters were better. They were not.
The book is 40 hours, but it will seem a lot longer!

Historia
After years of searching, a new cave filled with Dead Sea Scrolls is found, and among them are bizarre books of actual magic. Terrorist groups and multinational corporations scramble to acquire these treasures in the hopes that magic is the true WMD of the 21st Century. But everyone who goes near those scrolls goes insane. The fabric of reality is shredding. Is this the result of ancient magic, or is it a new bioweapon that fractures the mind of anyone exposed?

Historia
In 48 hours, the Earth will be hit by a coronal mass ejection (CME) from the sun, a "Carrington Event" that has the power to shut down and possibly destroy the world's electrical infrastructure. To try and prevent permanent damage, everything goes dark prior to the hit: Global communications are shut down; hospital emergency generators are disconnected; the entire internet, media broadcasting, and cell phone systems are turned off. Will the world's population successfully defend itself in the wake of the CME, or will mass panic lead to the breakdown of society as we know it?

I found the science in the book fascinating and matches up with some of my own research. I suspect the government will behave exactly as the book predicts. Well written and Bronson Pinchot is a great narrator!!!

The Earth lies in ruins in the aftermath of an extraterrestrial invasion, the land devastated by a desperate war with no winners between mankind and a race of vicious, intelligent creatures. The seas are drying up while the atmosphere corrodes and slowly cooks any life remaining on the now desolate rock. Food is scarce, trust even more so, and the only people left alive all have done horrific things to stay that way.

I really enjoyed Cop de Grace and have been a Firefly fan since the series on TV. James Anderson Foster does incredible narration and has all the voices down perfectly. I loved the story and only wish it had been longer. I also liked the second narrator and thought she did a great job.

Off the shore of Costa Rica, the Navy command ship USS Coronado launches an all-out assault against one of the most powerful drug lords in Central America. The high-tech fist of the US military is poised to come down like a sledgehammer. Everything is going according to plan until the quiet jungle erupts in a chaos of blood, shrapnel, and fire. When CIA operative Rick Holden and Naval Intelligence Officer Laura Peters begin investigating the circumstances of the ambush, they uncover something much more sinister than a failed military operation.

Historia
In THE SKEPTICS' GUIDE TO THE FUTURE, Steven Novella and his co-authors build upon the work of futurists of the past by examining what they got right, what they got wrong, and how they came to those conclusions. By exploring the pitfalls of each era, they give their own speculations about the distant future, transformed by unbelievable technology ranging from genetic manipulation to artificial intelligence and quantum computing.

I enjoy Steven Novella's grasp of science as it is, and just we he could see past his dogma. It will be interesting to see what he thinks in twenty years...
