Story
If you don’t understand communist revolutions, you aren’t ready for what’s coming. The old rules are over. The old order is over. Accusations are evidence. Activism means bigotry and hate. Criminals are allowed to roam free. Citizens are locked up. An appetite for vengeance is unleashed—to deplatform, debank, destroy. This is the daily news, yet none of it’s new. Patterns from the past make sense of our present. They also foretell a terrifying future we might be condemned to endure.

Disappointing
Reviewed: 07-04-25
I like their podcasts but this book is really amateurish. Most of the history they include is well known by all but the youngest reader. Nothing new here. The audiobook suffers from a monotone reader. The contents are good, but not news.

Story
Odysseus’s journey from the battlefields of Troy to his home in Ithaca is one of the greatest stories ever told. From the lotus-eaters to the sirens, from Circe to the Cyclops, this is a tale of thrilling adventures, cunning escapes, and enduring devotion. Stephen Fry breathes new life into the ancient poem with humor and pathos.

This latest installment of Fry’s Greek mythology series is a great addition to my library. We all know the story of the odyssey, but the magic in this audio version is Stephen Fry’s performance. It’s captivating and brings the story to life. I recommend it enthusiastically

In the final book of his astonishing career, Carl Sagan brilliantly examines the burning questions of our lives, our world, and the universe around us. These luminous, entertaining essays travel both the vastness of the cosmos and the intimacy of the human mind, posing such fascinating questions as how did the universe originate and how will it end, and how can we meld science and compassion to meet the challenges of the coming century?

I liked this book better the first time I read it years ago. Since then I’ve wearied of moralizing scientists. His predictions were biased and often wrong. I still lied his older works. This one not so much

This is a winner. The events are brutal. The enemy is evil. It’s a compelling read hard to put down though people keep dying and it’s never clear how it’s all going to turn out until the very end. Even then

As always, Coben delivers a great story with great characters and lots of twists and turn. The ending was unexpected, but really worked. Good read

It’s hard to imagine men working in terrible conditions, depending on whores for affection and dying from diseases, accidents, snakes, weather Indians and bandits. But that’s the story. The women also had a tough life either as whores or widows. It’s quite a story. 37 hours of audiobook, but worth every minute

Story
Fledgling reporter Fletch's first big interview is with a millionaire lawyer with a crooked streak and an itch to give away some of his ill-gotten gains. He ends up dead in the News-Tribune's parking lot before Fletch can ask question number one. So Fletch goes after the murderer instead and ends up learning a thing or two about crime and punishment. At the same time, he's supposed to be covering (or maybe uncovering) a health spa that caters to all its clients' needs and gets hired as a very personal trainer.

Fun Fletch Episode
Reviewed: 03-08-24
Fletch stories are great because of their irreverence and because the crimes he covers are usually pretty funny. This episode is no exception. The characters are mostly crazy. Or at least goofy. I laughed a lot while listening to it on audible Only three episodes to go. It should be a miniseries
