About this listen
In a dystopian future where a single organization controls all goods and services, thousands of impoverished Americans abandon pride and freedom to become part of Everything Incorporated. When Paul Harper, alone and failed, makes his way to Enterprise City, will he find fulfillment in a new beginning, or be buried underground, like all he's left behind?
Everything Inc. is a story of perseverance and redemption. Finding purpose in a world where purpose has been removed.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 121
A collection of absurdist and thought-provoking stories from the author's Return to the Dirt, Just Speculating, and more, including unreleased, exclusive, audio-only content! Performed by a cast of award-winning and Audie® nominated narrators. Fans of the macabre, dark humor, and cerebral thrillers are guaranteed a good listen. Occupational Hazards is an unflinching ride through the absurdity of it all. Existentialism, absurdism, and outlandish humor merge with ordinary, workaday life for a truly unique perspective of the human experience. Not recommended for the faint of heart or easily offended. But if meaty stories are what you're after....We hope you're hungry.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 48
In the underground tunnels below Grand Central Terminal, Lee Stringer - homeless and drug-addicted for 11 years - found a pencil to run through his crack pipe. One day he used it to write. Soon writing became a habit that won out over drugs, and before long Stringer had created one of the most powerful urban memoirs of our time. With humane wisdom and a biting wit, Stringer chronicles the unraveling of his seemingly secure existence as a marketing executive and his odyssey of survival on the streets of New York.

This is the way the world ends: with a nanosecond of computer error in a Defense Department laboratory and a million casual contacts that form the links in a chain letter of death. And here is the bleak new world of the day after: a world stripped of its institutions and emptied of 99 percent of its people. A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides - or are chosen.

On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas, President Kennedy died, and the world changed. What if you could change it back? In this brilliantly conceived tour de force, Stephen King - who has absorbed the social, political, and popular culture of his generation more imaginatively and thoroughly than any other writer - takes listeners on an incredible journey into the past and the possibility of altering it.

So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

Too close to reality
Like my title says, it's just to close to reality. I guess I shouldn't have listened to this when I was at work. Still, because of it I was totally hypnotized by this book, I finished in one sitting, couldn't turn it off. Think 1984 and Animal Farm all rolled into one. Except it's kind of real...kind of what we all live every day. Very disturbing
Part of the appeal of this book, I have to admit, was the characters in the book. Like us, they make friends, find a way to make the miserable more pleasant. It's this camaraderie that makes it fun in the middle of all of the disturbing. I would definitely read it again.
The narrator helped to drive home the story, fantastic range of voices, they did a great job.

Eerily profetic!
Great dystopian story that is way too close to the truth of how our society is moving forward. This book captured my attention from the beginning! This is my second book by Sturdevant and I think what I seem to like most about his books are the characters and the detail he puts into them. Paul J. McSorley brings the characters and the story to life. Excellent book!

Another fantastic story
Would you listen to Everything Inc. again? Why?
Yes. His stories are very interesting perspectives and tell these snippets of a life you would not have known existed.
What did you like best about this story?
You can believe in the characters. They are developed and crafted where you would almost know someone like them already.
Have you listened to any of Paul J. McSorley’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I love his delivery. Very good choice of narrator.

The narrator in this was excellent! He did all the different voices so well for each of the different characters. I thought the story was interesting, and I loved the friendship that was made between the 2 main guys. I enjoyed this short story.

Modern day Orwell
The first time I read 1984, it was just past that year, but the prospects for an Orwellian future were still realistic enough that it was scary as heck. Now, though, post-9-11, we see a lot of those same scary prospects as nothing more than a daily annoyance. Everything, Inc. takes it a league further into a world more realistically terrifying than I've ever imagined. We are already seeing signs of this bleak future, which makes it that much more terrifying. This book was scary in the way that the evening news is scary, and throws a dark pall on mega-conglomerates. Very entertaining, but also thought-provoking and insightful. The narrator was awesome.

Sad and funny story at the same time
Everything Inc. The Precious and the Broken
By: Geoff Sturtevant Narrated by: Paul J. McSorley
Everything Inc. is set during a time where the world is basically controlled by one big corporation. The perfect example of Monopolization; yet, it is written to allow the characters make this a sad and funny story at the same time. I found myself empathetic one minute and laughing the next.
The author did a great job bringing this story to life with excellent imagery and directing the story to unfold perfectly to maintain the interest of the reader. The narrator performed Everything Inc. with voices to match each character and really made the best of the authors work.
I loved Everything Inc. and rate it with 4 HUGE stars. I highly recommend it.

Well written
This novella is well written,well narrated, and holds your interest throughout.Its only flaw is that it isn’t as original as some of Sturtevant’s other works, such as Occupational Hazards.But well worth the investment of time to listen to.

Great short science fiction
I hate to say this but Mr. Sturtevant writing fits more or less how I see the far away future as. I have no trouble buying into this story. If is a little strange, very different and unique. Short, to the point of how a company takes over everything and everybody but the question is how they are using the people they are hiring. Could it be for slave labor, to help people who need help, or could it be so much more than our minds can handle?
The narrator as always does a wonderful job with his narration, his male characters are always outstanding pulling you in with the emotions he gives them. The fear, excitement, danger, unsure is show very easy in how he displays his characters tones. I was hanging on the edge with each new discovery as well as what happens to the people when they are no longer there. There are no background noises, no volume changes and no repeating of words. The narrator gives you a very clear, clean audio that takes you way making it easy to feel the horrors, the unsure, the pain and sorrow of losing everything you have only to find you're as far down as you can go. I enjoyed his narration and the powerful tones he gives each character. I look forward to listening to more of his work.
I thought this was a very interesting listen that held my attention keeping me invested in the story. It has a great plot and is a little out there but most of this authors writing are. He makes his stories unique and fascinating. I had no trouble at all buying into the story and feel somewhere along the way in this crazy world this could be our future to some point. Great job I totally loved it.

it was interesting.
the writing was great. I loved it up until the very end, maybe I missed something? but it seemed like the author just wanted to finish the book. so they stopped it as fast as possible. but everything right up to that point was fabulous.
