Review from The Ministry for the Future →
Sorry, don’t rate very many books, but this was one of the worst I ever tried. I’m not into politics or foreign government affairs. Maybe if there was an actual followable story I could have finished. Then throw in all the non performing narrators and I was finished. Will be returning this.
Review from Once We Were Here →
Story line was great. Kept wanting to hear more. Not wanting to set it down. Narration was superb.

The story itself is a bland delivery mechanism for the evangelism. More of the..

Karl Marx was two things, he was a historian and he was a science fiction writer in that he predicted a future, called for a future and talked about the future as if he could say what was going to happen next. As a historian, he was one of the greatest strains we’ve ever had,..

I like this book better than the first one, Charlie doesn’t seem like a pushover any more. He has really come into his own. Great story ? ? ? ?
