fantasy novella

This is a short audio fantasy story, a novella which follows the first three books in the series. Apparently, in this book there are spoilers for anyone who hasn't read the three before it. I am one who hasn't.
The action occurs on a luxury air ship (zeppelin) when Jake Sullivan is hired to keep the ship from being blown up. He encounters enemy agents and they use some kind of magical power against one another.
Interesting.

This is the true story of Emily Dickinson's married brother's affair with a married woman. That woman was Mabel Loomis Tood, and the narrator does a top-notch job of telling the story from Mabel's perspective.

This is the full Bible enacted with actors performing parts, music as background, and sound effects of the time of the scenes settings. So well done.

A college student shares an apartment with a roomie who is a pig. He meets a girl who is an animal safety activist and vegetarian, and although he loves eating sausage they become fast friends. He and his roomie both don't believe sausage is made from pigs, and the story is built around the business of sausage making and what is discovered.

This is a collection of eleven short stories all related in some way to death or the living dead. Some have cliffhanger endings, others have surprise endings, others are predictable, each is enjoyable in its own way.

The plane a man is on - a man who is anxious about flying - is crashed into by another flying vessel - aliens? - that couldn't avoid the accident. He is critically injured and when he regains consciousness his whole life has forever changed.
This is a great science fiction story, book one of the series, and very well narrated.

James Taylor shares with his fans and listeners the ups and downs of the first 21 years of his life. He talks about his upbringing, his family's dysfunction, and his addictions, but mostly his music. James shares about his relationships with famous songwriters and singers, including The Beatles (who treated him well and encouraged him), Joni Mitchell, and others.
Very well narrated.

This is an interesting fictional story of the life of David Copperfield, from his youth through his struggles, adventures, sorrows, accomplishments, and into his older respectable years.
So very well performed and narrated! Although long, but not over-written, it's funny in parts, dramatic, insightful, and so much more. A wonderful read.

The sound of water is usually calming, and this audio of ocean waves is wonderful to hear.
