Story4 out of 5 stars 6,340
Michael Crichton, creator of Jurassic Park, ER, Twister, and Westworld, had a passion project he’d been pursuing for years, ahead of his untimely passing in 2008. Knowing how special it was, his wife, Sherri Crichton, held back his notes and the partial manuscript until she found the right author to complete it: James Patterson, the world’s most popular storyteller.

Very disappointed!!!!

I don’t know much about volcanos, but I do know the military, specifically the world of Air Force fighters. It was obvious that the book was not reviewed by anyone with a military background. This was beyond fiction. I felt like I wasted my money on this book and wasted my time in listening to the entire book.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 56
The Old Course at St. Andrews is to golfers what St. Peter's is to Catholics or the Western Wall is to Jews: hallowed ground, the course every golfer longs to play - and master. In 1983 George Peper was playing the Old Course when he hit a slice so hideous that he never found the ball. But in looking for it, he came across a For Sale sign on a stone town house alongside the famed eighteenth hole. Two months later he and his wife, Libby, became the proud owners of 9A Gibson Place.

False Humility and Political Statements
Reviewed: 05-11-19
ruined what could have been a pretty good book. the performance was good except for the glaring pronunciation errors. For example, Jim Furyk pronounced as Jim "Furk". if it had only been a few of these, it would be no big deal; but there were quite a few. His Scottish accent was very good, but his attempt at a Georgia or Texas drawl were not even close. it was clear the author did not care for George Bush. I wanted to listen to a book about St Andrews and the Old Course, not his political beliefs. lastly, the author spent way too much time discussing his achievements in which he attempted to disguise his boasting with humility, which in my opinion, anyone could see right through. Yes, there were parts I enjoyed; unfortunately, the parts I would have like to skip outweighed the the parts I enjoyed.
