Historia
Deep down here by the dark water lived old Gollum, a small slimy creature. I don’t know where he came from, nor who or what he was. He was Gollum—as dark as darkness, except for two big round pale eyes in his thin face. He had a little boat, and he rowed about quite quietly on the lake; for lake it was, wide and deep and deadly cold.

Perfect

I tuned in when Andy read this for charity in a marathon session on YouTube. I was delighted to find that he did a professional recording after that event. This performance was pretty near perfect.

The Longest Day meets Space Opera.
Revisado: 05-07-20
The scope and sweep of the best space opera meets the history book, The Longest Day. Rechs and the 100 men who have been made in to Legionnaires launch an attack to retake a world conquered by the Savages. Cole and Anspach deftly shift the narrative between each part of the battle. Stephen Lang is perfection as the narrator; not only of this book, but the entire Savage Wars trilogy. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.

Historia
The Iron Wolves are a company of legionnaires whose legendary exploits date back to the Savage Wars. When they are invited to be guests of honor at a ceremony on a small, backwater planet, they look forward to some precious time away from the constant conflicts of galaxy's edge. But when a neighboring country invades, disrupting the ceremony and killing innocents, the Wolves are forced to make an impossible decision. Aid a people pleading for their protection...or obey the cynical orders of their senate to stand down and see how the dust settles.

This book is inspiring and hilarious. Yanez is a great choice for the series and I will be checking out his other titles. The characters are well voiced and interesting. Definitely give this a listen.

Heir to one of the leading "Four Horsemen" mercenary companies, Jim Cartwright is having a bad year. Having failed his high school VOWS tests, he's just learned his mother bankrupted the family company before disappearing, robbing him of his Cavalier birthright. But the Horsemen of eras past were smart - they left a legacy of equipment Jim can use to complete the next contract and resurrect the company.

Lead the charge, Splunk!
Revisado: 04-08-20
Fun story and well thought out universe. It is not only an action adventure but the story of a boy becoming a man. You can't help but like Jim and root for his success. The book shows him having to work, really work, at becoming a leader of men as well as a soldier. Splunk is a great character as well. Get this book, you won't be disappointed.

Historia
They were the Savages. Raiders from our distant past. Elites who left Earth to create tailor-made utopias aboard the massive lighthuggers that crawled through the darkness between the stars. But the people they left behind on a dying planet didn't perish in the dystopian nightmare the Savages had themselves created: they thrived, discovering faster-than-light technology and using it to colonize the galaxy ahead of the Savages, forming fantastic new civilizations that surpassed the wildest dreams of Old Earth.

Stephen Lang brings this origin story of the Legion to life in this fantastic novel. The story itself is good but Lang's performance ramps the enjoyment to 11. Can wait for more in this storyline.

Historia
Every Winter, the human population hibernates. Your name is Charlie Worthing, and it's your first season with the Winter Consuls, the committed but mildly unhinged group of misfits who are responsible for ensuring the hibernatory safe passage of the sleeping masses. You are investigating an outbreak of viral dreams which you dismiss as nonsense; nothing more than a quirky artifact borne of the sleeping mind. When the dreams start to kill people, it's unsettling. When you get the dreams, too, it's weird. When they start to come true, you begin to doubt your sanity.

Vast and Dark, with a glimmer of hope.
Revisado: 11-20-18
I loved this trilogy. The world building is thorough and well thought out. It is a little slow to start but picks up quickly. You'll hate the villains and pull for those struggling against them. This is for all three books of the saga so its a good value being over 24hrs long thus providing many hours of entertainment. Whole heartedly recommend this performance.

I thoroughly enjoy the Rex Nihilo series. Clever word play and references with a laugh almost every page. This one's the origin story for Rex and it's the best in the series yet.

Historia
This is the epic story of Hatshepsut, the ancient Egyptian princess and queen who was crowned king, and for more than 20 years ruled on the Horus-throne of the living as the "Female Falcon". The name Hatshepsut chose for herself as pharaoh can be read as Maat is the Ka of Re, which means "the true and beautiful manifestation of the sun's divine life-force". A more poetic but still accurate translation is "truth is the soul of the sun".

Fun and accurate history.
Revisado: 08-03-18
I received a copy from the author inn exchange four an honest review.
This is a rather good bio novel of one of two female pharaohs known to history. The narration isn't perfect but the author more than makes up for it with the excellent story and her attention to detail. I'm a history geek and definitely recommend this book.

Revisado: 08-01-18
I received a copy in exchange for a review. The narrator is good and the story is entertaining but the science is a bit weak and unexplained. The evil corporate dad thing got tiresome and I just wanted him to be eaten or stop talking. Also "the trailer was rocking, so no one came a knocking", really?!?! Are you kidding me???
