Historia
“What kind of home are we returning to that a man has to be able to defend himself with the sword?” These heavy thoughts preoccupy Bryndor, who is trapped in the Valley of the Cloud Walkers. Violent storms devastate the summit of the Korjinth Mountains, isolating any in the valley. He uses the time to train with the sword to understand his companion and his place in the world. In Aarindorn, Karragin leads missions against grotvonen. But something else lurks among the hordes under the mountains, something that hints at the resurgence of an evil thought long ago vanquished.

Great story set in a very rich, detailed world.
Revisado: 07-17-22
The first thing I look for in a book is a good story. But I love a world with depth and breadth. To have an author offer such a detailed world is a treat. Never have I seen one offered just two books into a series; an absolute delight. Eagerly looking forward to the rest of the series.

Historia
“Eyes to the horizon” were the last words the king spoke to his wife before the abrogator channeled dark power and murdered them both. Their deaths activated an enchantment that concealed their two sons’ identity and allowed the king’s brother, Kaellor, to escape from Aarindorn with the heirs to the Southlands.

What is the audio book version of a page turner?
Revisado: 04-09-21
I really enjoyed this book! I'm a Sci-fi guy from way back and rarely step over to the fantasy side of things. Tolkien and Lewis are about it. But VanGundy got me hooked on these characters from the very beginning. He's crafted a rich and vivid universe. Often an author has a good story to tell but needs several outings to fill out the world/universe his stories are set in. Here is a large, complex world I look forward to discovering as the series continues.
The narrator comes off as a little campy for my tastes. He does great voices for the various characters, but the narration of the action is a bit overwrought.
This book is written for adults or late teens and is not for the very young. As a paramedic I can see VanGundy's experience in emergency medicine in several scenes which accurately describe injuries and what they would like in the real world. For me, this adds to the richness of the narration, but I would not read this my kids as I would Lewis.
Bottom line: This is the audio book version of a page turner. Eager for rest of the series!

Historia
The Second World Wars examines how combat unfolded in the air, at sea, and on land to show how distinct conflicts among disparate combatants coalesced into one interconnected global war. Drawing on 3,000 years of military history, Victor Davis Hanson argues that despite its novel industrial barbarity, neither the war's origins nor its geography were unusual. Nor was its ultimate outcome surprising. The Axis powers were well prepared to win limited border conflicts, but once they blundered into global war, they had no hope of victory.

A fascinating look at the Second World War. The narrator is very noisy (breathing and some mouth noises) which detracts significantly from the overall quality of the production.

Fascinating story. Very interesting insights into the leftist mindset.
The production needs to be reedited. There frequent long pauses in the narration which feel like a paragraph or even a chapter break but are actually between or in sentences.

Historia
Many Christians struggle to understand the Book of Revelation. “The end times.” “The apocalypse.” “The day of judgment.” These terms are both fascinating and frightening – but what do they really mean? Drawing from decades of study, Dr. Jeremiah explains every key sign of the approaching apocalypse and what it means for you, including international, cultural, heavenly, tribulation, and end signs. With his engaging writing style and clear analysis of how current world events were foretold in the Bible, The Book of Signs is an encouraging guide to the Book of Revelation.

Very good presentation of prophecy for those who, like me, want to know more but lack the background to grasp all the nuances.
Poor audio production, though. Frequent rustling of papers was distracting and sometimes uncomfortable on the ears.

Historia
When it comes to the gun control debate, there are two kinds of data: data that's accurate and data that left-wing billionaires, politicians, and media want you to believe is accurate. In The War on Guns, economist and gun rights advocate John Lott turns a skeptical eye to well-funded antigun studies and stories that perpetuate false statistics to frighten Americans into giving up their guns.

Highly recommended by Dr. Robert Hartwig, President of the Insurance Information Institute, and Michael Gerber, author of the E-Myth books, this audiobook provides a complete system to develop, manage, and grow a successful insurance business. It contains everything you need including a personality assessment to determine if this business is right for you, licensing guidelines, a business plan, employee contracts, an employee handbook, business forms, and more.

Reason for a Low Rating
Revisado: 01-12-19
I downloaded the audible book. I didn't like that the author kept referring to his samples are available if we bought the hard copy book. Sadly, we are in 2019. Most people never buy a hard copy. We choose to listen to books. Offer a website to download each sample. Or provide your email so you can send all the samples you have of a business plan, job descriptions, etc.
The author also has a captive agent point of view and talks bad about independent Agents. The author talks about hiring 4 extra people when you first start your business. But doesn't talk about agents who cannot afford to hire anyone. He speaks from the Farmers Insurance playbook. Not from the reality of a small independent insurance agency.

Is it acceptable to lie to students to tell them the truth? Apparently, to a Darwinist, it is.
It is long past time to remove misrepresentations and lies out of our science classrooms. This book shows what they are.

Historia
Lee Strobel became convinced that God was outmoded. Today science is supports the conclusion that the universe was intelligently designed. Darwinism has faltered in the face of facts and hard reason. Science definitely gives faith a boost as new findings emerge about the complexity of our universe. Strobel re-examines the theories that once led him away from God. You'll encounter discoveries from cosmology, DNA research, and human consciousness that present evidence in The Case for a Creator.

Chapters Don't Line Up

The chapters of the audio book don't align with the chapters of the actual text. This strikes me as lazy post production work.

Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, who in his perennial best seller On Killing revealed that most of us are not "natural born killers" - and who has spent decades training soldiers, police, and others who keep us secure to overcome the intrinsic human resistance to harming others and to use firearms responsibly when necessary - turns a laser focus on the threat posed to our society by violent video games.
