Story
In 1944, a secret Nazi experiment split the universe in two. In our universe, we won. Hitler died. Freedom prevailed. But in a parallel universe, the Nazis discovered the atom bomb first... and conquered the world. The light of freedom perished, and the Nazi shadow spread across Earth, the solar system, and the stars. In 2207, a portal opens between our two universes. One universe of freedom. One of tyranny. And through this portal flies the Weltraumwaffe, the space fleet of the Third Reich.

Most people think the way to write a best seller is to have a lot of talent and even more luck. As you will learn, there is a recipe for success, and luck may be the least important ingredient in creating a best seller. No one has cracked the code better than James Scott Bell. A best-selling author himself, and the author of the number-one best seller for writers, Plot & Structure, Mr. Bell has been teaching the principles of best-selling fiction for over 20 years, principles that apply to any genre or style.

Story
Far too often, public discussion of science is carried out by journalists, voters, and politicians who have received their science secondhand. The Story of Western Science shows us the joy and importance of reading groundbreaking science writing for ourselves and guides us back to the masterpieces that have changed the way we think about our world, our cosmos, and ourselves.

Story
A survey of the quirks and quandaries of the English language, focusing on our strange and wonderful grammar. Why do we say "I am reading a catalog" instead of "I read a catalog"? Why do we say "do" at all? Is the way we speak a reflection of our cultural values? Delving into these provocative topics and more, Our Magnificent Bastard Tongue distills hundreds of years of fascinating lore into one lively history.

I feel ready now
Public speaking is something that I’ve always been interested in but I just never felt confident enough that I would be able to do it. This book has not only given me the confidence to do public speaking but it also has helped with other fears that I’ve had such as not knowing what I should say next.

Conquering My Fear of the Mic
This audiobook was amazing. As a Black woman who often feels overlooked in professional settings, I'd let my fear of public speaking hold me back for too long. The practical advice in this book, especially the tips on virtual presentations and engaging diverse audiences, gave me the confidence I needed to finally step up and share my ideas. I have a speaking engagement coming up soon, and for the first time, I actually feel prepared and excited, not terrified. I'm already seeing a difference in how I communicate, and it feels empowering.

A Valuable and Practical Listen
I recently listened to this audiobook and found it really enjoyable. I liked how the information was clear and simple to understand rather than overly complex or technical. The audiobook focuses on building confidence, not just becoming a professional speaker, which I found particularly useful for everyday situations. I particularly liked the tips for improving digital presentations. These were helpful for me as I often find adapting to virtual communication challenging. I think this resource is handy for beginners or anyone looking for straightforward strategies to build their confidence and improve their speaking skills.

Perfect to overcome shyness and exposition
I am an English teacher and I naturally have to talk in public and engage/convince students to start classes with me. At the same time, I have to deliver presentations for my other jobs and talk to my boss in a confident way, so the strategies and tips that this book offers are really helpful. There are so many topics covered in this book that you won't need to get an additional book.

If you struggle with speaking in front of people, I highly recommend giving this a read.
