Narrated by Tom Weiner This was an audiobook reread for me, so it was a bit weird in parts. There's a fair amount of Latin, but that's not too much of an obstacle. It's a book that's hard to pin down. It's a post-apocalyptic view of the world after a nuclear war. The story centres around a Benedi...
One of my favorite Heinlein adult SFs, it nevertheless shows signs of it's age. One minute, down and out actor Lorenzo Smythe was — as usual — in a bar, drinking away his troubles as he watched his career go down the tubes. Then a space pilot bought him a drink, and the next thing Smythe knew, ...
This is, I think, only available in audiobook, but it's fairly short, a bit over 3 hours, and contains 5 short stories. Two are available individually, one is set in the world of one of Maberry's series, but stands just fine alone, and one was written especially for this production. The other is a "...
I am going to be the party pooper again. Many of my friends enjoyed this story but as much as I tried (and, boy, did I ever try) I could not fall into this book.Part of the problem was the narrator. His voice was gravelly and deep and it suited some of the characters but it grated on me. Sorry but i...
Jonathan Maberry is real hit or miss for me. I like the Joe Ledger series even though I generally hate his writing style. But I still keep giving him a chance. This book won the Bram Stoker Award so I thought I was in for something good here. If this is what they honor, then I don't actually get wha...
I really enjoyed the first book in this series, Lay It Down. My biggest complaint was the narrator's style and how he portrayed the female characters. Tom Weiner is back, and I still disliked the very bad falsetto he used with the female characters. However, Duncan's clipped British tones were nicel...
There are a number of science-fiction books around where the author attempts to chart the future history, in a speculative manner of course, of humanity. Isaac Asimov does that in his Foundation universe (which begins with the Robot stories and ends with Foundation and Earth) and Larry Niven does th...
(Re-read this as part of summer-long nostalgia trip of Larry Niven's Known Space books. Although [b:A World Out of Time|64725|A World Out of Time (The State, #1)|Larry Niven|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1348613073s/64725.jpg|1634535], takes place in a different fictional universe, I h...
This book was kind of like Diet Stephen King: no calories, half the flavor. Jonathan Maberry apparently scripts comic books too, and that was apparent in the melodramatic prose and the prolonged fight scenes in Ghost Road Blues.Thirty years ago, the small town of Pine Deep was victimized by a serial...
