Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

“The Heron” is the nickname a big-city accountant has attached to himself in his new home near San Diego, where he’s using the alias to avoid a hit man who may be after him. It seems a former client believes that The Heron has skipped town with several million dollars not his own. Don Winslow’s ensuing, entertaining yarn is by turns twisty, dark, and comical as we observe the delicate dance between the pursuer and the pursued.

What would happen if a shy introvert lived like a gregarious extrovert for one year? If she knowingly and willingly put herself in perilous social situations that she’d normally avoid at all costs? Writer Jessica Pan intends to find out. With the help of various extrovert mentors, Jessica sets up a series of personal challenges (talk to strangers, perform stand-up comedy, host a dinner party, travel alone, make friends on the road, and much, much worse) to explore whether living like an extrovert can teach her lessons that might improve the quality of her life.

Myrna, Leonie, and Chrissy meet every Thursday to sample fine cheeses, to reminisce about their former lives as professors, and lately, to muse about murder. Decades ago, a vicious cabal of male poets contrived—quite publicly and successfully—to undermine the writing career, confidence, and health of their dear friend Fern. Now, after Fern has taken a turn for the worse, her three old friends decide that it’s finally time to strike back—in secret, of course, since Fern is far too gentle to approve of a vendetta.

And all you have to do is to find, reproduce, and report bugs before the last pixel is locked in and the games are launched to an eager public. Sure, there’s the unpaid overtime, the office politics, and the ever-present threat of layoffs. But you get to game!

You wake up floating. Not in the air, but horizontally in a coffin-sized chamber filled with blue gelatinous fluid. You do not remember what this is. You do not remember why you are here. You do not remember who you are.

Story
Make a wish. The words have haunted Rashmi since she first heard them whispered the night before her mother died, when she was just 10 years old. Rashmi’s mother used to tell her stories of a magical garden lit only by the moon, whose blossoms grant wishes. For years, Rashmi believed the whisper somehow came from the mysterious moon garden of her mother’s stories and that her own failure to respond—to wish—may have cost her mother her life.

If you like silly humor you'll like this
I thought it was pretty good just a bunch of made up craziness to kill 6 hours and there was actually some story to it but yeah I liked it

Mildly Amusing
The narration and acting were good. Reminded me of radio shows. I had to spend a credit to listen to it, though. I probably won't listen again, tbh.

Loved this oddball book
This is fun lighthearted junk food for you brain. What starts out as a miner border dispute turns into a battle for all of existence. Full of just about every cheesy sci-fi cliche out there.

A fun listen with laugh out loud moments.
I didn't expect to enjoy this as much as I did. A fun few hours with great, some time ridiculous moments, that you can't help but laugh loud enough for every body around you to hear.

Wow.. I am definitely going to buy their next book
This book is good. Voicing acting is also good, so are the sound effects.. It has strong charm.. I don't dare say. More about the story.. But it is nice and entertaining. There references everywhere spanning different movies and other things. Things a person would only get or understand if they saw them or remember the scenes from which they came. I encourage everyone to give it a try.. It's easy to spoil so I dont dare speak much about i.

lots of campy fun
full of tropes and cheesy satire , a good fun listen. I was particularly fond of how effective it was to have the narrative framed as a lecture series , it worked really well for this.

Entertaining enough
I enjoyed this. I was a bit disappointed by how derivative the story was in places, but I really liked the framing of the story as a history audio lecture and there were many clever parts. Give it a go.

What a ride!
This had everything! Alien dinosaur professors awaiting tenure. A mystical aardvark. Sentient bowls of pudding. Digital ketchup. Everything! It was really big and really fun. And also kind of sweet? I loved it!
