Historia
When Darl Moody went hunting after a monster buck he's chased for years, he never expected he'd accidentally shoot a man digging ginseng. Worse yet, he's killed a Brewer, a family notorious for vengeance and violence. With nowhere to turn, Darl calls on the help of the only man he knows will answer, his best friend, Calvin Hooper. But when Dwayne Brewer comes looking for his missing brother and stumbles onto a blood trail leading straight back to Darl and Calvin, a nightmare of revenge rips apart their world.

A great book!
Revisado: 04-13-21
This is a fantastic book. Grabs you right from the start and doesn't let go until the end. Beautifully written. It is a very simple story, yet never goes where you think it will. I was born and raised in the Carolina's and the author knows his subjects well, these characters are all people I've known my whole life. While a simple story, David Joy has a lot going on in the subtext. The narration is also fantastic. If the narrator wasn't born in the Carolina's, the he deserves the equivalent of an Oscar for his narration, it was spot on! At its heart this is tale of simple people in conflict but look deeper and there is a whole world to dissect. I loved it.

Historia
In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis' parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents - telekinesis and telepathy - who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and 10-year-old Avery Dixon.

A little Shawshank and Dreamcatcher
Revisado: 12-31-19
There are elements of Shawshank redemption and Dream Catcher is this book. I really enjoyed it, couldn’t stop listening to it, pretty much listened to it straight through as much as possible. If you loved King books like Duma Key and Joyland, you should enjoy this. I think King is brilliant at creating characters that you fall in love with and care deeply about, which makes you race through his books.

Historia
Dalinar Kholin's Alethi armies won a fleeting victory at a terrible cost. The enemy Parshendi summoned the violent Everstorm, which now sweeps the world with destruction and in its passing awakens the once peaceful and subservient parshmen to the horror of their millennia-long enslavement by humans. While on a desperate flight to warn his family of the threat, Kaladin Stormblessed must come to grips with the fact that the newly kindled anger of the parshmen may be wholly justified.

LOVE these books!
Revisado: 03-27-18
I started with Way of Kings and its still my favorite but Words of Radiance and Oathbringer are just as fantastic! From the first five minutes of Way of Kings, I was hooked and I listened to all three books, one right after the other, it took me a while but I LOVE these books and the narration is top notch, just as good as the narrator of the Off to be the Wizard books (which are also excellent). This trilogy was my first sci-fi / fantasy, but don't let that label or the covers influence your decision to read these books, there are incredible!!! There is something for everyone in these books, male and female heroes, there is a lot of layers to this story. I highly recommend this series. I became very attached to the characters, in fact by the time I started Oathbringer, I was genuinely concerned that something bad would happen to my favorite character, Kalidin and was going to be very upset if something did. Get these books, they're AWESOME!

Historia
Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Revisado: 12-23-17
48 hours long? That's what i thought but once I started listening, I couldn't stop and by the end, it didn't seem like even 14 hours long let alone 48. This is a sweeping epic story with tons of great, well-rounded, male and female characters. I cant imagine anyone not liking this book. The moment i finished it, I download and began listening to Words of Radiance literally 2 minutes later. And downladed oathbringer as well, cant wait to see what happens to Kaladin.

Historia
The Nightingale tells the stories of two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals, passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France—a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women. It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime.

Historia
There are some odd things about Nate’s new apartment. Of course, he has other things on his mind. He hates his job. He has no money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.
