Story
We're all animals...although some of us have more primal instincts than others. Ex-policeman Joe Cassidy has a keen interest in animal behaviour and how it can have a bearing on some of the most heinous of human crimes - a talent that has heavily informed his detective work over the years. Although until now, he thought that he had left detective work behind....

Not too bad a story, but awful production.

Story
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. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Have to admit I'm a bit of a space nerd but I really enjoyed this book. The speaker did a great job. If I didn't know better I could have sworn I was hearing George Clooney reading. Highly recommend this book.

Story
The key to living a happier, healthier life is inside us. Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain or our heart, yet we know very little about how it works. In Gut, Giulia Enders shows that rather than the utilitarian and - let's be honest - somewhat embarrassing body part we imagine it to be, it is one of the most complex, important, and even miraculous parts of our anatomy.

This book has such useful information and explains a lot. The book explains so much about allergies and food intolerances. Knowledge is power. Highly recommended

Story
A powerful ruler, an alluring young woman, a scandal that would rock the nation: Anne Boleyn’s life story sounds more like a juicy TV docu-drama than a chapter of English history. Although she is not of noble birth or even especially beautiful, Anne Boleyn manages to rise to the very pinnacle of the English aristocracy. Renowned for her extraordinarily vivid recreations of historical events, Carolly Erickson brings out the full fascinating story of the enigmatic Anne Boleyn.

I enjoyed this book reading very much. Also the narrator was very good, clear diction and an entertaining understanding of what he was reading.

Story
The laugh-out-loud, reach-for-your-hanky story of one of Australia's best-loved comedians. Anh Do nearly didn't make it to Australia. His entire family came close to losing their lives on the sea as they escaped from war-torn Vietnam in an overcrowded boat. But nothing - not murderous pirates nor the imminent threat of death by hunger, disease or dehydration as they drifted for days - could quench their desire to make a better life in a country where freedom existed.

This is a Lovely Read!

What made the experience of listening to The Happiest Refugee the most enjoyable?
Anh's infectious optimism. He is a lovely guy and I loved hearing his story. He has a light tone and easy going surface but my impression is that there is a lot more going on there and that he's a very deep person with strong values and strong family values. Hugely talented man and a terrific, inspiring book to read.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, I savoured it slowly, enjoying listening each night or various times during the day when I was doing other things. It took me away from the things I was doing and instead into Anh's world.
