Publisher's summary
An unnerving tale of self-absorption and deception by short-story master Tobias Wolff.
Three friends are leaving the suburbs of Spokane on a hunting trip. Kenny is the prankster, harsh and mean. Frank is laid-back and full of idealism. Tub is overweight, sensitive, and the brunt of everyone's jokes. Searching for tracks in the snow, the trio has little luck until they spot a set of deer prints heading into a nearby farm. Kenny, desperate for a token of their difficult journey, insists that they ask the farmer's permission to hunt on his land. But as they set out in the fading sunlight, things go terribly wrong and what appears to be an accident becomes more and more questionable as strange events call each man's character into question.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

As you listen to this story You See the whole thing play out. I never want to go hunting with any of these guys. This story should make you think carefully about your hunting partners.

Crazy story
This is a crazy story of friends who go hunting and one shoots another one and the others say they are taking him to the hospital but they keep stopping to get drinks and share their life issues along the way. It was entertaining. The story was good. The narration was okay but with this narrator it sounded like it was a book about or for old ladies instead of manly hunters. I'm sorry but a couple of them sounded gay and I don't think they were supposed to. Other than that, I enjoyed it.

Dark and Wild Ride!
This is a very interesting story indeed. It brings new meaning to the word “hunters,” that’s for sure. I feel as if there is a darker purpose with one of the characters…hence my review title and the last 40 seconds of the story.

Interesting
My first foray into Mr. Wolff. I wasn’t sure what to expect for that reason and that there is only so much that can be done in a story of this length.
Basically, it’s a study in self-absorption and of how we may not really know our friends. You can see basically how it will end almost from the start. Characters are well drawn and the style keeps you interested.
I’m not a hunter, but these are among the last three people I would ever want to go with if I was.
Narrator sounds like he has mic fright and drank way too much coffee before he started. Still, he handles the different voices well.

Narrator is the problem
Heald tends to mumble words toward the end of sentences and his voice drops off. I listened to several of Wolff's short stories, and most of the time I missed the endings. Like --what? What did he just say? And suddenly it was the next short story. If you can't enunciate, don't be a reader.

Do not waste your time
There is no story here, and it’s disgusting, talking about an adult married man in love with a 16 year old. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!
