I am an expert on all things me. But listening to this book clarified how brutal I am to myself for small transgressions. Debated buying the book to lend around.

Review from The Ministry for the Future →
I liked the book. It gave me a lot to think about. Although, it didn’t feel like there was too much story in between the climate details and nuanced chapters.
The ditching of Flying Tigers Airlines flight 923 with 72 souls on board on September 23rd, 1962 is an amazing and almost unbelievable story. This story combines drama, heroism, existential struggles, and human tragedy in a stranger-than-fiction saga. While the matter-of-fact narration is a trifle bland, the details of this incident and it’s aftermath are..
It took me a while to get this audio I was hesitant and I don’t know why. It was wonderful!! I love Sidone and Kane! Wish this was much longer however everything fit perfect. I love this series. Can’t wait for the next one.
Over reaching and finger pointing without any actionable solution
Review from The Ministry for the Future →
Meh. Climate change is unimaginably important. This book agrees. But the author decides to wish away the problems rather than suggest feasible solutions.

The book contains many important ideas but its experimental nature seems to betray many unsuccessful attempts at creating a good storyline. I would recommend the audio version which is read by a cast of readers with lovely voices. This helped me to recognize the various threads that run in parallel from the get go. It..
Need book 2 on audio please!!!!
Review from The Hunted →
I throughly enjoyed this book. It was fast paced and very entertaining. I love a book that makes me think what would I do if I was the main character. Narration and story 5 plus ******
If you have listened to any of the other action-packed and shadowy “Silence Jones” series authored by Erik Carter, “Deadly Science” is a novella covering the beginning of our protagonist, silence Jones himself. The audiobook edition is made even better with the exceptional narration performed by Gary Bennett, who also narrates the wonderful “Dragon Mage”..
