    Mixing a bit of seventeenth-century French history with a great deal of invention, Alexandre Dumas tells the tale of young D'Artagnan and his musketeer comrades, Porthos, Athos, and Aramis. Together they fight to foil the schemes of the brilliant, dangerous Cardinal Richelieu, who pretends to support the king while plotting to advance his own power. Bursting with swirling swordplay, swooning romance, and unforgettable figures.

    Would you listen to The Three Musketeers again? Why?

    I enjoyed this book so much, I'll probably listen to it at least once a year.


    Any additional comments?

    There hasn't been a film yet that honestly follows the book. This story is far better than any of them!

    Jake Sullivan is a licensed private eye with a seriously hardboiled attitude. He also possesses raw magical talent and the ability to make objects in his vicinity light as a feather or as heavy as depleted uranium, all with a magical thought. It's no wonder the G-men turn to Jake when they need someoneto go after a suspected killer who has been knocking off banks in a magic-enhanced crime spree.

    What did you love best about Hard Magic?

    I really enjoyed the little differences and explanations concerning various historical events and quotes in this alternate reality.


    Which character – as performed by Bronson Pinchot – was your favorite?

    Bronson Pinchot's performance was excellent! His portrayal of each character was distinctive. I couldn't possibly choose just one favorite!


    Any additional comments?

    This book needs to be on film! It's destined to become a big budget blockbuster!

    In August 2006, the International Astronomical Union voted Pluto out of planethood. Far from the sun, tiny, and eccentric in orbit, it's a wonder Pluto has any fans. Yet during the mounting debate over Pluto's status, Americans rallied behind the extraterrestrial underdog.

    Which character – as performed by Mirron Willis – was your favorite?

    This guy sounds so much like Neil deGrasse Tyson, I had to keep reminding myself that it wasn't narrated by the author!

    With a postscript describing SEAL efforts in Afghanistan, The Warrior Elite takes you into the toughest, longest, and most relentless military training in the world. What does it take to become a Navy SEAL? What makes talented, intelligent young men volunteer for physical punishment, cold water, and days without sleep?

    What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

    This book should have been narrated by someone with military experience; someone that understands how certain things are pronounced and emphasized in the military.


    Any additional comments?

    In spite of the narrator's shortcomings, it was still an interesting listen.
