The Reveal sees Icke dig deeper than ever before and the book can truly be described as ‘the next stage of human awareness’ across a great swathe of interlocking subjects from who controls the world to the nature of the ‘afterlife’ and everything in between. His record of being proved right decade after decade is unparalleled and what he uncovers here has the potential to transform human perception of self and reality.

For those who are looking outward and saying WTF and know it’s time to look inward. Saves the best for last chapter.

There is a meditation in Chapter 6 which was extremely freeing for me. I am definitely going to give the book at least another listen - maybe more. After a very long marriage and pending breakup I'm feeling like I can do this and let more love into my life! I wish my Ex the very best that life has to offer. I release her to become the best version of herself!
Onward. Spirits up!

For more than two centuries, the land of Albion has been ruled by the supposedly benevolent Watchmaker, who imposes precision on every aspect of life. Young Owen Hardy from the village of Barrel Arbor dreams of seeing the big city and the breathtaking Clockwork Angels that dispense wisdom to the people, maybe even catching a glimpse of the Watchmaker himself. He watches the steamliners drift by, powered by alchemical energy, as they head toward Crown City....

Longtime Rush fan, book not for me

What disappointed you about Clockwork Angels?
The story seemed to be aimed at a younger audience.
How could the performance have been better?
The narrator seemed like he was reading to his daughter and not to an adult audience, which is fine. Wish I knew the audience level before reading.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
Loved the references to Rush's song titles and lyrics. There were Easter eggs all through the audio book!
Also, if you enjoyed the Clockwork Angels album that Rush released in 2012, this audio book will fill in the story blanks. Not sure if you will enjoy the album any more or less though.
Any additional comments?
I love Neil Peart and Rush, but never connected with the characters in this book or the story. I personally would have been much better off imagining the story in my own mind based on the lyrics and music from the exceptional Clockwork Angels Rush album.

Story4 out of 5 stars 45
PEN/Faulkner Award finalist and New York Times best-selling author Ron Rash turns again to Appalachia to capture lives haunted by violence and tenderness, hope and fear, in unforgettable stories that span from the Civil War to the present day. In the title story, two drug-addicted friends return to the farm where they worked as boys to steal their former boss' gruesomely unusual war trophies. In "The Trusty", which first appeared in The New Yorker, a prisoner sent to fetch water for his chain gang tries to sweet-talk a farmer's young wife into helping him escape, only to find that she is as trapped as he is.

Was The Pillars of the Earth worth the listening time?
umm. Ok. if you push me then the answer is "no". I can however say, I came, I listened, I reviewed.
Any additional comments?
I am a fan of the Game of Thrones series and most certain that GRRM was inspired by Pillars. This book is ambitious, but failed to engage me with respect to the characters -- through no fault of the excellent narration by John Lee. His characters remained real and true throughout the book.
At a certain point I just didn't care about some of these characters the way I should have -- perhaps with the exception of the main character Prior Philip and the main antagonist William Hamleigh. The other main characters and antagonists were fun at times, but ultimately a bit boring.
Ultimately, I wasn't as compelled to sit in my car and miss a meeting or dinner with my family to listen until the end of chapter like I have been with other audible books. Sometimes I had to push myself to listen to Pillars and not a podcast that I downloaded.

Based on more than 40 interviews with Jobs conducted over two years—as well as interviews with more than a hundred family members, friends, adversaries, competitors, and colleagues—Walter Isaacson has written a riveting story of the roller-coaster life and searingly intense personality of a creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing.

Amazing life story
Reviewed: 11-27-12
If you could sum up Steve Jobs in three words, what would they be?
Thus far, my favorite book on Audible.
Any additional comments?
I lived through and avidly recall all of Steve Job's major highs and lows, reading about him/Apple/Next rise and fall. Great to understand more of the detail and dirt behind what was going on that the newspapers and mags did not cover. The whole Apple versus IBM versus Microsoft versus itself is very compelling as well as Steve's relationship with Steve Wozniak, his daughter Lisa and others is a study in and of itself in physiology. Crazy, crazy, crazy, but brilliant man.
What I didn't expect is how this book has changed me and others that I have referred. Steve's obsessive and neurotic view for ANY products' fit, form and function had an almost life changing affect on the way I view my company's final product (even though I am in the services business) and the way I shop for products as a consumer.
A must read/listen!!

In the mid-70s, Steve Martin exploded onto the comedy scene. By 1978 he was the biggest concert draw in the history of stand-up. In 1981 he quit forever. Born Standing Up is, in his own words, the story of "why I did stand-up and why I walked away".

Interesting, but could have been better. Short.
Reviewed: 06-27-11
Best parts are when he talks about his family, but these parts are just a very small part of the book. As a fan some interesting stuff, but could have been better. At times I laughed out loud to hear Steve repeat some of his old stuff, but overall this book is not a comedy book, but a kind of biography. Doesn't go beyond the movie "The Jerk" as far as his career is concerned.
