Story
Zachary Quinto - best known for his role as the Nimoy-approved Spock in the recent Star Trek reboot and the menacing, power-stealing serial killer, Sylar, in Heroes - brings his well-earned sci-fi credentials and simmering intensity to this audio-exclusive novella from master storyteller John Scalzi. One day, not long from now, it becomes almost impossible to murder anyone - 999 times out of a thousand, anyone who is intentionally killed comes back. How? We don't know.

The story skipped around it seemed and was hard to follow. Then it suddenly just ended. I double checked a couple times because I couldn’t believe that was the end... total disappointment

When a high-conflict person has one of five common personality disorders - borderline, narcissistic, paranoid, antisocial, or histrionic - they can lash out in risky extremes of emotion and aggression.

I have several people in my life that fit the title of “5 people who can ruin your life”. This book was so helpful I’ve listened to it several times. The reading was done well and the story itself flowed smoothly and made me not want to stop listening. Actually made me laugh a lot!

The story got my attention and was cute, but then it just seemed to abruptly end. Like the author just decided “ok I’m done with this one” and wrote “the end” when it seemed like it was just beginning.
