I listen to audio books all day long and mix in music, tech podcasts, and old time radio shows. I post what I'm listening to, and my opinion of it when I finish the item.

Considering the progress I've made so far on this book and the meetings I already have scheduled, I estimate that I won't finish this book until Thursday night or Friday morning. A very long book to take me that long to complete it. On the other hand I enjoy the history included in the book whether factual or not, its still interesting.Dwight A. Hunt, Sr. A+, MCP

Summary by Graphic Audio:In a world where evil will not die, Nazis dream of world domination. Soviet land forces count on their reborn particle beam weapons to gain the advantage, while their undersea brethren weigh the nuclear option; an option that will leave the planet a desolate rock in space. Albert Einstein once observed, "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity and I'm not sure about the former." John Thomas Rourke and the forces of freedom couldn't agree more. Approximate Run Time: 5 hours

Product Description:The power to control the driving force of the universe has finally come to light. At the university on Maladaan, Taren has studied everything from genetics and cell communication to Quantum Physics, Astrophysics and ESP. She believes there is an ocean of microscopic vibrations connecting everything in the universe to every other universe -- an inter-dimensional field theory. Unbeknownst to Taren, her research and hidden psychic talents are the reason she is called on by the prestigious AMIE space project to investigate an ocean planet and its strange light phenomena. However, there are conflicting agendas within the organisation and she is the only one who begins to suspect that foul play might be afoot …

Summary by Graphic Audio:
Starting this item/book. For details on this item/book and other items/books, see one of my blogs. http://audio-book-addict.posterous.com
Colonel Andrew Keane and his blue-coated soldiers were not the first humans time-space-warped to a world so familiar yet so foreign. Humans abounded on the perverse planet-humans treated like cattle by the alien warrior overlords. Keane's Civil War weaponry defeated the swords, spears and crossbows of his monstrous adversaries. And part of the human population was freed, but the other part became puppets of the overlords in a vast counterattack. Now it was human vs. human, gun vs. gun, ironclad against ironclad, as the empires of Roum and Cartha clashed in gut-wrenching, soul-stirring struggle for the future of a world beyond time.
Series not very good or interesting.
Summary:
"Star Trek: Defiant" is a full-cast, ongoing sci-fi serial adventure based upon the Star Trek television series.Defiant started off as a text-based story list in early October of 1995. Believe it or not, that list is still around. I actually met my wife there. :)
But back then, Defiant was really something new and different on the newborn, barren wasteland of the internet. A bunch of fans with a similar passion for Star Trek came together and formed close friendships while telling stories about our fictional crew set upon my favorite of all the Star Trek ships, the USS Defiant (of Deep Space Nine fame).
You may notice that an awful lot of the characters share names with the people who created them/actors who play them, including myself. Back then we didn't know who each other were, and so it was a decision we made to name a bunch of the characters after ourselves simply so that we could learn each other's names. Not a very exciting story, perhaps, but there it is. :)
Defiant has a long and rich history that all of its members have formed together over the past decade, and it's my complete honor to bring Defiant to a wider audience in the realm of audio. We are absolutely making it accessible to everyone, so you don't need to know ten years of Defiant history in order to understand or enjoy the episodes. But we will try to incorporate some of the more major events from our past into some storylines to help new listeners learn more about Defiant and the universe she interacts in.
Welcome aboard the USS Defiant.
Boldly go.

Interesting book, but a got a bit confusing when it switched to describing the other Earth caused by the Polar shift.
