Eh, I didn't find it to be all that extreme.

If you could sum up Sick Bastards in three words, what would they be?

Good Short Story.

Would you be willing to try another book from Matt Shaw? Why or why not?

Yes, i believe i'm going to listen to at least most of the ones read by Chris Barnes. While I didn't really find the book to be that extreme, and please don't get me wrong it is most certainly an over the edge book, i have listened to other stories that are FAR more intense then this. However it was a really entertaining listen and Chris Barnes does a fabulous job so I will definitely have to give the others a go.

What about Chris Barnes’s performance did you like?

Chris Barnes is a brilliant narrator. I found him to do a fantastic job with the various voices and tones required in the book and his overall tone of speech is wonderful to listen to. Chris Barnes has certainly made it on my list of narrators in the A class. I put him in the same catagory as Simon Vance, R.C. Bray and Whil Wheaton.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Unfortunately no, again i really did enjoy the story but it left me waiting for that over the top moment that just didn't seem to come.

Any additional comments?

I guess the last thing I would like to say is while an entertaining story, may I suggest a few titles such as The Troop, most of the books by Jack Kilborn and the books Tim and Tim2. These are disturbing books.

Would you listen to What If? again? Why?

Absolutely. Wil Wheaton, as always, makes this a fabulous listen. While the questions may seem absurd at times, the real world answers are very well written and informative. I found myself doing further research on a number of items. Also anyone that is a fan of XKCD will immediately love this book.

What did you like best about this story?

Almost all of the questions were interesting, and the answers leave you thinking. I would say that this is a book for a geek or nerd if you will. The answers to some of the proposed questions involve a variety of sciences. I am personally very interested in a lot of the topics in the book. It left me with a new bag full of things to research and look into further. Also some of them are just downright entertaining.

What does Wil Wheaton bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Since I began listening to audiobooks i have come to realize that the narrator is just as important to the book as the author, and in some cases, i would even say more important. I have had many bad stories saved by the nuance of a good story teller. I also have had several really good stories absolutely ruined by a poor narrator. That being said, Wil Wheaton is by far one of the best narrators that I have heard. I purchased most of the books read by Wil Wheaton regardless of their content, within reason, skipping short books etc....and I have yet to be disappointed. While I think that reading a physical book of What If? would be great, Wil Wheaton had me literally laughing out loud at some points.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

a film by Michael Bay.

Any additional comments?

Buy this book, it is 100% worth the credit or the money.
