For the lust of riches, do men fall. Good story. Narrator got better towards the middle. I think he became comfortable. I will look for more of his work.


(5 stars)

an interesting study of the effects of money. The science has long been debunked, but sadly, human nature has not changed a bit.

EAW

gripping and also great narrative

ACD NEVER DAISAPPOINTS


(5 stars)

A truly imaginative and thought provoking storu. Our federal government dole artists should be compelled to read and re-read the minister's condemnation of unbridled giveaways in the next to the last chapter.

The story was okay. The narrator was okay. Sounded like he had allergies or something at one point and mispronounced some words, but the audio quality was good.

totally thoughtfully provoking
