Battlefield Earth! By L.Ron Hubbard
One of the quotes on the cover of this MP3 Battlefield EARTH Audiobook is “A Vivid MOVIE of The Mind” I truly couldn’t have described it better. Even if you aren’t a SciFi buff you will enjoy this book!! Starting with the beginning where you get such a great insight to where SciFi writing began written by L.Ron Hubbard himself. The forward of the book is so interesting, learning the difference between fantasy writing and Science Fiction. When you mix science fiction with fantasy you do not have a pure genre. The two are, to a professional, separate genres. I notice today there is a tendency to mingle them and then excuse the result by calling it “imaginative fiction.” Actually they don’t mix well: science fiction, to be credible, has to be based on some degree of plausibility; fantasy gives you no limits at all. Writing science fiction demands care on the part of the author; writing fantasy is as easy as strolling in the park. (In fantasy, a guy has no sword in his hand; bang, there’s a magic sword in his hand.) This doesn’t say one is better than the other. They are simply very different genres from…
Stories of the Golden Age ‘Dead Men Kill’
I seriously, canNOT get enough of the L. Ron Hubbard books on CD. I love them!! They are truly entertainment for the imagination. The books on CD are read with multiple actors, complete with all the sound effects and music to boot. Dead Men Kill. IS BY FAR my favorite yet. It has ZOMBIES!!! ZOMBIES people!! I love Zombies!! Okay, I had no idea that L. Ron Hubbard could make zombies this scary!! These are stories from the 30’s and 40’s! WHO KNEW?!?!?! I listen to my books on cd in the car, I couldn’t wait to go ANYWHERE to finish this book. I was convinced L. Ron Hubbard truly brought zombies back to life, when several of the city’s most respected citizens are inexplicably killed by ZOMBIES!!! Don’t worry you’ll get no spoilers from me!!
The Iron Duke by L Ron Hubbard
I’m sad, this is my last L Ron Hubbard book on cd to review. I have really enjoyed listening to these tremendous books. As much as I enjoyed Hubbards Battlefield Earth. These books are fully recreated stories with all the sound effects and the multi-cast reading. These cd’s are truly like listening to a Broadway play. The Iron Duke may be my favorite yet. This story has everything!! Blacky Lee is man’s man (ahhh ladies man too!). There is a whiny little sidekick named Stubs. The story is a love story. A story with lots of adventure and intrigue. Suspense and humor. I picture Blacky Lee with the good looks of Gerard Butler. He’s a con man. He’s a ladies man. He only has his own best interests at heart. Or does he?? American arms merchant Blacky Lee is wanted by nearly every government in 1930s Europe—especially the Nazis. They want Blacky’s head for selling them dud weapons, prompting his rapid (and illegal) escape across the Balkans to the kingdom of Aldoria with his business partner in tow.Aldoria is well chosen. Years before, Blacky discovered he was the spitting image of the country’s Prince Philip, learned the archduke’s speaking voice…
Spy Killer by L.Ron Hubbard
L. Ron Hubbard has to be the most prolific writer of the pulp fiction era! He can spin a tale that is enjoyed even now. So descriptive and so entertaining. Having these stories read on cd is even more entertaining! These cd’s are full amazing sound effects. Water, paper wrestling, foot steps and engaging music and multiple cast readings make this book 100% entertainment. Today’s review is about Spy Killer from the Tales from The Orient collection. L. Ron Hubbard may have made his name by founding The Church of Scientology. But, before the Church was founded Hubbard wrote Pulp Fiction. Pulp Fiction is a term used to describe the low quality paper used to write books and magazines. (ahhhh you thought it was just a Quentin Tarantino movie didn’tcha??) Spy Killer might be my favorite so far in the series of L. Ron Hubbard books. Intrigue!! Suspense! Falsely accused of murder and grand larceny, Kurt Reid flees to Shanghai. After rescuing a White Russian spy, he’s captured by the Chinese and forced into the cloak-and-dagger world of espionage and intrigue, where everything and everyone are not what they appear to be. If you need a Mother’s Day gift or a Father’s Day gift, I really think you should check…
