I did enjoy the book though, I didn’t learn as much. Tech culture is fascinating from the inside and even more fascinating reading an outsider’s view of it
Everest, Inc. by Will Cockrell is a very interesting, and informative book, shattering some cliches which have been around for decades
The narrative is compelling, and I certainly enjoyed the explanation of the financial crimes aspect of the book. Throw in some corruption, conspiracies as well
Whalefall by Daniel Kraus shines in parts, giving a claustrophobic, cinematic feel. While intense in parts, the book becomes somewhat formulaic
The plot might be overstuffed, but I enjoyed the new characters. Moneypenny is COO of the 00 division is one of the aspects of the book that I liked the most
Billy Boyle wakes up in Sicily, with amnesia. He doesn’t remember what happened, or who he is, but he has a yellow silk handkerchief which seems important
Wanderlust: An Eccentric Explorer, An Epic Journey, A Lost Age is a biography of Peter Freuchen, a Danish adventurer, author, actor, and game show winner
The book is well written, satirical, quirky, and a lot of fun to read. The first half is excellent, but I felt the second half fell flat when the schtick was up
I found the story engaging, but I’m glad it wasn’t longer.. Nevertheless, it was a dark, entertaining tale with several good twists.
This book is a fantastic account of a terrifying event that very few know about. I was on the edge of my seat till the end … & I knew how it was going to end
