Story
In Act III, we follow Morpheus on a grand journey to take care of family business. He visits with his son Orpheus (Regé-Jean Page), an act that brings with it profound consequences. Accompanied by Delirium (Kristen Schaal), he tracks down their estranged brother, Destruction (David Harewood), the only member of the Endless ever to abandon their post. And at an inn at the intersection of all worlds, a group of travelers are forced together by a storm that threatens to destroy reality itself, with grave repercussions for Morpheus and the rest of the Endless.

I loved this book. But I have to admit that if Tyrus had not narrated I would not have bought the audio book. It was important to me to hear this in his voice. So many life lessons in this I am going to make sure my grandsons get a copy.

Each turn in the story was unexpected. The suspense builds through out the story. The ending was totally unforseen! The narrators where perfect for their characters

Mesmerizing performance. Brings Burton to life. Interweaves the classics to portray Burton's life. I just wish it was longer.

Okay, I would have preferred Jesse doing the narration. But Wayne did a wonderful job of capturing Jesse. The book was informative, insightful, and funny. I wish much success for Watters, can't wait for next book

Story
The number-one best-selling author of The Future of the Mind traverses the frontiers of astrophysics, artificial intelligence, and technology to offer a stunning vision of man's future in space, from settling Mars to traveling to distant galaxies. Formerly the domain of fiction, moving human civilization to the stars is increasingly becoming a scientific possibility - and a necessity. Whether in the near future due to climate change and the depletion of finite resources or in the distant future due to catastrophic cosmological events, humans will one day need to leave Earth.

The narrator is what made it possible for me to listen till the end. He was phenomenal. The despair was at times overwhelming and would go on till the point of tedium. The narrator was the only thing that kept me from turning the story off (for good)

Story
The Overstory unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fable that range from antebellum New York to the late 20th-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond. An air force loadmaster in the Vietnam War is shot out of the sky, then saved by falling into a banyan. An artist inherits 100 years of photographic portraits, all of the same doomed American chestnut. A hard-partying undergraduate in the late 1980s electrocutes herself, dies, and is sent back into life by creatures of air and light.
