Historia
NASA is about to launch Apollo 18. While the mission has been billed as a scientific one, flight controller Kazimieras "Kaz" Zemeckis knows there is a darker objective. Intelligence has discovered a secret Soviet space station spying on America, and Apollo 18 may be the only chance to stop it. But as Kaz races to keep the NASA crew one step ahead of their Russian rivals, a deadly accident reveals that not everyone involved is who they were thought to be. With political stakes stretched to the breaking point, the White House and the Kremlin can only watch as their astronauts collide.

Excellent
Revisado: 11-03-23
This is a great book with a wonderful story. It felt real and you can tell that the author really knows the ins and outs of NASA (he’s an astronaut so of course) but he weaves the fictional characters in with the real people wonderfully. Excellent read.

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

This book is wonderful. I Love The Martian and I may love this just as much. I couldn’t stop listening. It’s definitely one that I will come back to. Andy Weir is a master of good science.

Historia
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plainold "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

Historia
The Two Towers is the second volume of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic saga, The Lord of the Rings. The Fellowship has been forced to split up. Frodo and Sam must continue alone towards Mount Doom, where the One Ring must be destroyed. Meanwhile, at Helm’s Deep and Isengard, the first great battles of the War of the Ring take shape. In this splendid, unabridged audio production of Tolkien’s great work, all the inhabitants of a magical universe - hobbits, elves, and wizards - spring to life. Rob Inglis’ narration has been praised as a masterpiece of audio.

This recording is fantastic. The narrator has a wonderful rhythm and pace. He does slightly different voices and accents without being overly dramatic. One of my favorite books ever and beautifully done in audio format.

Wonderful conclusion. Not what I expected.
Revisado: 05-28-14
What did you love best about Catching Fire?
I love how it's focus is the war and the greater overarching themes and NOT the teen love drama. This book was great. It's nice to see the heroine helping but not taking over. It's more realistic than thinking Katniss could take out an entire regime alone.

Very good
Revisado: 05-28-14
Would you consider the audio edition of A Clash of Kings to be better than the print version?
I don't know
Who was your favorite character and why?
I liked many of the characters. And it feels good to really dislike some of them too. They are very believable and satisfying.
What about Roy Dotrice’s performance did you like?
Excellent voice. I did like his rhythm and his slight differences when switching characters.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I wanted to but it's too long. I found myself sitting on my car in the driveway not wanting to get out!!!
Any additional comments?
This was a great book. I liked all the detail into the world. Very Tolkienesque. Not quite as masterful but still good and I'll likely listen again.
