"Flinx and Pip are Back"
At last The first Flinx and pip novel to make it to Audio! Foster begins to tie up the varous plots of the previous books and bring back many old frends to help. From all parts of the Commonwelth friends come to Flinx's aid. The Book was great the only dissapointment was the non-apperance of Skua September. You will love it if you like any of Fosters other "Commonwelth" Novels.
"Interesting Libertarian view of the country"
John Stossel may or may not be your favorite TV personality but this book is thought provoking. The book is written around a simple formula "common sense says...." but "experience has told me".
Good Listen
"This is how learning history should be"
After "Killing Lincoln" the followup of "Killing Kennedy" (the end of Camelot) was just as engrossing. Even people who did not live through this time in American history (I did) will find this book not only complete but festinating and addictive.
Great Listen
"best of the Heinlein books of Social commentary"
Yes this is Science fiction but it is also a discussion of the points of slavery and social designs.
it is also a commentary on corporate politics.
Great listen.
"RAH Fun"
This was one of Hienlein's Scribners Junvinal's well read pioneering story.
Highly recommended for young teens and any Heinlien fan.
Great listen.
"the ultimate revolution story"
It should be noted that other Heinlein books continue this story. the rolling Stones, the cat who walks through walls. I have heard other narrators of this book and the sudo rus accent in this reading was distracting however it was well done in the othercharterization especially Mike's voice!
Must listen for RAH fans
Great listen.
"the only Heinlein Fantasy Novel"
This is the only Fantasy the Heinlein wrote as a novel and even in this one there is an element of Sci-Fi. A Fun typical retrieve the object for the princess plot with a Hienlein twist.
Good listen.
"Must listen before cat that walks through walls"
The sory in this book besides a homage to the authors of the golden age of SF & F is the ultimate multiverse story. The two following novels form RAH "The cat who walks through walls" which also has the prerequisite of "The Moon is a harsh mistress" the novel "to sail beyond the sunset" is also based on the result of this book. A must listen for Hienlien fans.
Great listen
"Wow great insite into the Obama Mindset"
The point of this book is to show how those who have worked with Obama think of him and place the Obama administration in context of experience needed to do the job of President of United States. Listen and form your own opinion of the value of the book. Great Listen.
"One of my favorites from Niven"
I originally read this in the 1970s and loved it the Audio version loses nothing. I can not recommend for young teen readers (Adult Content) but it is real hard science fiction (the removal of the science makes the story collapse) great performance and creates the excitement I originally felt when I read the book in the 70s..
Good Listen
"Abridged and will be better un abridged"
The story is typical fun Cussler but it feels like major parts are missing in this abridged version. I went and bought the hardcover and I was right the abridgment is not the best and not up to the standards of other abridgments I have heard in the past (blue gold) here on Audible. Fair listen.
