A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery: Humanity has conquered all those things and has even conquered death. Now Scythes are the only ones who can end life - and they are commanded to do so in order to keep the size of the population under control. Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe - a role that neither wants. These teens must master the "art" of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own.

When Alex finds out he is Unwanted, he expects to die. That is the way of the people of Quill: Each year all the 13-year-olds are labeled as Wanted, Necessary, or Unwanted. Wanteds get more schooling and train to join the army. Necessaries keep the farms running. Unwanteds are set for elimination. It’s hard for Alex to leave behind his twin, Aaron, a Wanted, but he makes peace with his fate - until he discovers that instead of a “death farm”, what awaits him is a magical place called Artime.

When Conrad Davis crashes his car, he should be dead. Instead, he finds himself in a parallel universe with a single difference from ours - Jesus Christ did not come 2000 years ago! Conrad finds himself in the midst of events surrounding a man named Eli - events that carry strong contemporary echoes of the life of Jesus. Following Eli, Conrad is challenged to accept what he witnesses, just as Christ’s apostles must have been challenged. Eli gives a unique twist to a question many people have asked themselves over the past two millennia: How would I react if I lived in the time of Jesus?

Resumen del Editor
This audiobook contains:
"Absolutes": Expertly melds science fact with science fiction. The brilliant boy scientist, Krzysztof Steelbridge, is blinded by ambition and ultimately consumed by it.
"Silence is Golden": In the distant future, the universe is controlled by Majority-1. Their rule is supreme. No one dares oppose them, and so it is against all odds that Ev tries to make a stand against them. To do so, however, she must sacrifice everything and everyone she holds dear.
"August Rains": Former teacher and principal John Anderson must face the demons of the past.

Convicted killer and death-row inmate Michael Coleman agrees to have the genes from the mysterious blood planted into his body. The results are so astonishing that the research must continue outside prison walls. But nobody can predict what will happen when Coleman assumes a new identity and reenters society. Blood of Heaven delves deep into the human heart and examines the very nature of good versus evil.

The music of Rush, one of the most successful bands in music history, is filled with fantastic stories, evocative images, thought-provoking futures and pasts. In this anthology, notable, best-selling, and award-winning writers each chose a Rush song as the spark for a new story, drawing inspiration from the visionary trio Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart.

At last, one of the world’s greatest works of science fiction is available - just as author Stanislaw Lem intended it. To mark the 50th anniversary of the publication of Solaris, Audible, in cooperation with the Lem Estate, has commissioned a brand-new translation - complete for the first time, and the first ever directly from the original Polish to English. Beautifully narrated by Alessandro Juliani ( Battlestar Galactica), Lem’s provocative novel comes alive for a new generation.

Very good!
Robert Stanek is a terrific author and I truly enjoyed these stories. Each gives you something to think about and ponder over the next time you read or listen. Absolutes would make an excellent movie, so would Silence.

Entertaining listen
Stanek's Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches books are incredibly good. I wasn't sure what to expect in this story collection but I really enjoyed it and the stories are all entertaining. Definitely recommended.

Solid set of stories
I've listened to a good many audio books, and this is pretty darn good. The narrator does a good job with the stories, and the author does a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life through his words. There's a good enough mix and story types to please just about anybody. Highly recommended, especially if you are looking for something you can listen to during a few hour drive or flight. Also, has good relisten value. I've listened to each of the story multiple times when I was looking for something short to fill in the time between appointments or what not.

Where are the movies?
Absolutes & Other Stories is an incredibly good story collection from a favorite author. There's a good mix of stories from the more literary (August Rains) to the extremely fun (Silence is Golden) to the pure science fiction (Absolutes).

Where are the movies?
I recently discovered Robert Stanek and I have been trying to read everything he has written. Undoubtedly, his Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches and In the Service of Dragons are some of his best and best known. But he has so many other books as well. This was one I decided to try and I am glad I did. Absolutes and Other Stories is one of those rare immersive experiences. While I did not like the narration so much, I did love the stories and have since sought out the printed book. These are stories that would work will on the big screen and I hope the author decides one day to expand the stories to full length works.

Good sci-fi
Absolutes, the main story in this collection, is a well written novella and it comes across nicely in audio. I also enjoyed the short stories.
