Not a good read

I had high hopes for this book, but was very disappointed. The music intrusive and went on and on. After listening to the whole of the book I am sorry to admit, I cannot remember anything about it, shame.

Absolute Rubbish

Worst purchase I have ever made. The nonsense that this writer comes out with is shameful. I was particularly amused by his recording of he and his friends sneaking into the Sydney Masonic Centre, what a joke! That venue is a function centre and has a café out the front that are all open to the public and lets not forget there is also a Masonic museum, library and shop that are also open to the public. My mother is a frequent visitor and has done a number of guided tours that a all open to the general public. Yet another Freemason bashing piece of trash.

Members Reviews:

Interesting story, told by an android.

What didnt you like about Joe Dunlops performance?

Well spoken and easy to understand but painfully, painfully wooden.

Any additional comments?

A very important story but sounds like it was read by a text-to-speech app.

Great book AWFUL NARRATOR.

This is a great and fascinating book, but the narrator is truly AWFUL and ruins the whole experience. Really disappointed, I kept losing interest in it, due to the sheer monotone boredom of his voice, totally wrong for this type of book. The publishers should be ashamed of this recording.

Tough stuff, and a must listen

I had no idea just how complex an engagement this book scratches the surface of, and would encourage anyone else, who like me has only a rough idea of what is going on as informed by media headlines, listen to this.

Well presented engaging stories, illustrating some of the complexities and contradictions of NATO in Afghanistan.

Riepilogo Editore:

Mille e non più mille... ma le popolazioni a cavallo dell'anno mille, quanto credevano ad una brusca fine del proprio mondo medievale? Non è che forse questa fine dei tempi sia stata costruita a tavolino in tempi successivi a quelli del fatidico passaggio di millennio? L'autore, indagando sulle testimonianze di fonti autorevoli che hanno vissuto quei momenti, sfata questo luogo comune e punta poi il dito su un grande intellettuale che in tempi assai più recenti ha contribuito a dare credibilità a un mito così radicato come quello dell'Anno Mille.

Language: English

Publisher: Random House AudioBooks

Publisher's Summary:

The swinging sixties introduced several progressive laws to the residents of the British Isles. The conversion of the nation to flared trousers, the legalisation of colour and the right to live in a newly built tower block almost entirely made from asbestos. Yet despite the freedoms gained, the vibrant clothing, the music, often the grooviest experience of the average youth of Britain was down a mine.

Was it that good!

Ahh the1960's. When I was very young and at school. This series bring memories flooding back like a river about to break its banks and flood the 60's. Facts are presented very tongue in cheek. The humours door to history, a very good listener with bone dry, whit and quite a lot of entertainment value. Well written and well read by the author. I would say get this book and settle back and enjoy.

Publisher's Summary:

Significant moments of the 1990s included the first Gulf War, the Fall of the Berlin Wall and John Majors radical new traffic cone hotline. Britain would begin the decade in recession, coming to its climax on Black Wednesday, a term coined by little known shadow chancellor Gordon Brown, the rail industry would be come privatised and Iraqs invasion of Kuwait led to the first Gulf War.

But in 1997 a sprightly New Labour hopped on to the political soapbox and the country began to believe that things could, possibly, be getting better.

A decade dominated by the collapse of the manufacturing industry, troubles escalating in Ireland, the Falklands war, AIDs and yuppies. Not to mention the country being run by one of the most unpopular leaders of the country since polling began.

Thankfully, the marriage of Charles and Di in a spectacular wedding lifted the spirits of the nation for a while, until Di promised to love, honour and then fracture the Royal Family with a string of embarrassing revelations.

Members Reviews:

I remember that.

We are taken through the in a very humorous and deadpan way. John O'Farrell has written and narrated this series and talks about some serious issues in a lighter way but still brings home the seriousness of the times. I have already recommended this series to my friends and hope they will enjoy it as much as I have.

Title: 1970s

Subtitle: An Utterly Exasperated History of Modern Britain

Language: English

Release date: 03-10-10

Publisher: Random House AudioBooks

Genres: History, European

Publisher's Summary:

Strikes, hooliganism, IRA bombings and the most atrocious haircuts of the last 50 years. The 1970s do appear to be a dark time in Britains history.

While whole counties were subsumed by concrete, roundabouts, and subways (assisting the burgeoning mugging industry), power cuts reduced the nation to women shopping in candlelight and, god forbid, actually having sex with their husbands.

Members Reviews:

History from a very odd angle!

A good way to present history and the events surrounding this time. As I'm " of " this era I'm enjoying the " witty " way John o' Farrell is presenting the facts. I'm very much looking forward to reading others in this series.

Title: The Lost King of France

Subtitle: Revolution, Revenge, and the Search for Louis XVII

Author: Deborah Cadbury

Narrator: Hannah Gordon

Format: Abridged

Length: 6 hrs and 52 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-25-09

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: History, European

Publisher's Summary:

In 1793, when his mother was beheaded at the guillotine, she left her adored eight-year-old son imprisoned in the Temple Tower. Far from inheriting a throne, the orphaned boy-King had to endure the hostility and abuse of a nation. Two years later, the Revolutionary leaders declared Louis XVII was dead. No grave was dug, no monument built to mark his passing. Immediately, rumours spread that the Prince had, in fact, escaped from prison and was still alive. Others believed that he had been murdered, his heart cut out and preserved as a relic. In time, his older sister, Marie-Therese, who survived the Revolution, was approached by countless 'brothers' who claimed not only his name, but also his inheritance. Several 'princes' were plausible, but which, if any, was the real Louis-Charles?

Deborah Cadbury's 'The Lost King of France' is a moving and dramatic story. Interweaving a pivotal moment in France's history with a compelling detective story involving pretenders to the crown, royalist plots and bizarre legal battles. The quest for the truth finally runs to the present day. Using modern DNA testing, the strange odyssey of a stolen heart found within the royal tombs was to lead to an exciting conclusion to the two hundred-year-old mystery of the Lost King of France.

Members Reviews:

What Ever Happened to Louis XVII?

This was a great book!

It provided a good overview of the life of Louis & M.A. and the events of the French Revolution without getting bogged down into a dry and boring litany of names and dates - Deborah Cadbury kept it interesting the entire way through. (Highly probable this is because I had an abridged version)

Up until now, all I knew about the history of the French Revolution ended with the execution of Marie Antoinette and the instauration of the French Republican Calendar. I knew nothing about her children and their fate.

Poor little Louis died in such miserable circumstances your heart just breaks for the innocent child the mystery of whether or not he secretly survived was a fascinating one and I am glad I read a book that provided a definitive scientific answer to that question.

MINDBLOWN

Such a cruel tragic story, my heart breaks! I highly recommend this book to anyone.

Mystery finally solved, a great audiobook

Very interesting story that just gets better as it goes on, fascinating to see how different conclusions were reached as time and science progressed.
