About this listen
"Трудно быть богом" - культовое произведение поколения 60-х - 80-х.
Герой повести землянин Антон - сотрудник Института Экспериментальной истории живёт в 22 веке. Путешествия во Вселенной к тому времени стали реальностью, а встречи с гуманоидами - обыденностью. Наблюдения за жизнью на других планетах породило соблазн, ускорить развитие некоторых цивилизаций. Так Антон под новым именем - Румата оказывается на третьей планете звезды ЕН-2097, культура которой близка земному средневековью...
Никто не мог предположить будет ли готов народ средневековья к принятию миссии спасителя с Земли, а сам Румата даже не догадывался, насколько хрупким окажется его гуманизм. Эволюция и революция, естественное течение истории и грубое вторжение в чужой мир - герой в первую очередь должен сделать нравственный выбор. Выбор делает каждый, кто знакомится с повестью, примеряя тем самым, ношу Бога. Вопроса "кто будет читать "Трудно быть богом?" никогда не возникало. Ведь именно Леонид Ярмольник сыграл главного героя повести - Румату, у кинорежиссёра Алексея Германа в фильме по повести Стругацких.
Проект настолько захватил актёра, что он даже написал аннотацию к повести. Леонид Ярмольник назвал произведение Стругацких "рентгеновским снимком нашей реальной цивилизации". "Всё, о чём спорит и за что берётся каждое последующее поколение, описано в этой книге с предельной тщательностью и хрестоматийной точностью", - считает Леонид Ярмольник.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Story
London: 1968. Liz Houghton is languishing as an obituary writer at a London newspaper when a young girl’s disappearance captivates the city. If Liz can break the story, it’s her way into the newsroom. She already has a scoop: Her best friend Marisa is a police officer who is assigned to the case. Liz follows Marisa to Dorset, where they make another disturbing discovery. Over two decades earlier, three girls disappeared while evacuating from London. One was found murdered in the woods near a train line. The other two were never seen again.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.

Story
The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Fantastic
This book is remarkable in so many ways! Interesting plot, wonderful characters, depth of thought... And then there is this amazing prescience in the character and person of Don Reba. That's just uncanny right there.

Missed the original book’s prologue and epilogue
I was disappointed to find out that there were missing prologue and epilogue from the primal book that make the story complete
