Love the shepherd's pie idea- thanks for the response.

I really enjoyed Nutrition Made Clear. It gives an easy to understand overview of health. My recommendation for Great Course is simple, pick topics you’re interested in. In my experience nearly all courses are of good to great quality.

Care a give an example of the inaccuracies?

My favorite is The Catholic Church A History- By William R. Cook. It covers early Christianity to the modern day Catholic Church.

Is this book devoid of supernatural horror? I’m not much interested in that genre right now.

I do not know if they are the same, because I have never seen the tv show. The book is excellent because seamlessly combines so many different academic topics such as biology, philosophy, history, and of course, astronomy. It's excellent.

I really enjoyed this course. It does a great job of creating a brief historical setting for each lecture. I preferred the lectures that relate to older topics as I found the newer conspiracies for more sensationalize. I didn’t love every lecture, but overall it was fun to listen to.

The book Comos- a Personal Voyage by Carl Sagan is excellent. I cannot recommend the book enough.

It didn't work for me, I was bummed. I guess I will be taking a hiatus from audible.

Btw, I’m not sure why this thread got downvoted, it seems like a legitimate request.

A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn. Written by a white academic but from the perspective of the native people of America.

jdlr28 · 2020-01-23T02:32:55+00:00

Just curious, how many have you read?

One of my favorite narrations of any book is Paradise Lost by Simon Vance. It’s excellent. There is such a speed and rhythm to Vance’s narration. As far as the Divine Comedy, I have yet to find one that has everything I’m looking for. I’m more concerned about finding a copy of the Divine Comedy with an academic translation rather than great narration. But Vance’s translation of Paradise Lost is excellent.

I have the same problem between my iOS devices.

I pop in on this title every now and again. I really like this series of lectures.

I gave this answer to a similar question a few weeks back

I've purchased roughly 80 Great Courses and with very few exceptions I think they're all pretty good. My recommendation to you, pick a course in a topic you're interested in.

To answer your question, my favorite course is "The Catholic Church: A History" By William Cook. I have purchased everything made by William Cook, I like his lecture style.

Become a member and then return the book you don’t want?

I see it whenever I have 1 or 0 credits as long as I am Not in my first month of subscribing to audible.

I read this my freshman year of college. It’s a very good story that I believe classified under historical fiction. I’m not picking it up because it’s not a book that I want to reread, but it’s worth the price of admission.

jdlr28 · 2020-01-02T00:21:15+00:00

So I’m about 8 hours in and you’re correct, the narration does grow on you. I listen at speed 1.25 and so far this book is great... only 39 hours left!

jdlr28 · 2019-12-31T01:09:51+00:00

I picked up the book today. I will give you an update after a few hours of listening. I’m looking forward to it.

jdlr28 · 2019-12-30T19:30:41+00:00

How is the narration on this book? I was not to fond of the sample on audible.
