This is not a quick listen - and that is good - not just a good plot - but great character development- and the author can actually write… really well. Brilliant series

Fantastic series. Some said Douglas Adam’s tone - I agree but with a mix of Terry Partchett too. Enjoy

Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body. Arrogant Masters? Heavenly Tribulations? All that violence and bloodshed? Yeah, no thanks. I’m getting out of here. Farm life sounds pretty great. Tilling a field by hand is fun when you’ve got the strength of ten men—though maybe I shouldn’t have fed those Spirit Herbs to my pet rooster.

Having grown up on their great-grandfather’s stories, Royd Tolkien and his brother, Mike, have always enjoyed adventures. So when Mike is diagnosed with motor neurone disease, also known as ALS, the brothers decide to use the time they have left to tick off as much as possible from Mike’s bucket list, from remote camping in Norway to travelling through Royd’s beloved New Zealand. Yet, when Royd loses Mike, he discovers his brother had been writing another kind of bucket list: 50 things he wanted Royd to do after his death.

Thank you Royd for sharing your and Mike’s story. It is clear that you two shared a special bond. This is a wonderful and very moving intertwined story of Royd completing a bucket list of 50 things bequeathed to him by his late brother Mike who died of MND, and the process of caring for Mike as MND progressed to its inevitable conclusion. You should listen to the book - and also please go and help your local MND charity- thank you.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 805
The science fiction genre has become increasingly influential in mainstream popular culture, evolving into one of the most engaging storytelling tools we use to think about technology and consider the shape of the future. Along the way, it has also become one of the major lenses we use to explore important philosophical questions. The origins of science fiction are most often thought to trace to Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein, a story born from a night of spooky tale-telling by the fireside that explores scientific, moral, and ethical questions that were of great concern in the 19th century - and that continue to resonate today.

Weak philosophy loaded with misapplied facts and personal bias

Great concept and well done. Worth a listen

Really enjoyed this way of looking at sci fi from a philosophical standpoint. Certainly made me think at a number of points. If you like sci fi and also enjoy philosophy- this is certainly a match for you. Enjoy

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.

E. H. Gombrich's world history, an international best seller now available in English for the first time, is a text dominated not by dates and facts but by the sweep of experience across the centuries, a guide to humanity's achievements, and an acute witness to its frailties.

Really enjoyed this. World history from a German Perspective- originally written in the 1930s with a final chapter added post the fall of the Berlin Wall. Very well written- and not just for the original younger audience. Hope you enjoy the listen

On The Power of Vulnerability, Dr. Brown offers an invitation and a promise - that when we dare to drop the armor that protects us from feeling vulnerable, we open ourselves to the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. Here she dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and reveals that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage.

Great Listen - very helpful without being “preachy” - good use of Underwater Hockey as an example. Enjoy
Reviewed: 10-26-20
I really enjoyed the listen. It is not a book in itself - it is a recording of a linked series of talks she gave - this does not take away from the listen at all. Great way to raise some very interesting and important points. Plus bonus points for getting in an underwater hockey reference- yes it is a real and great sport - just sucks as a spectator sport. Hope you enjoy the listen - well worth an audible credit
