Acerca de esta escucha
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this season of battle games! Three random events, two teams, one winner. Will they play Blind? Last team on the platform wins, but watch out for the the drones that temporarily blind, deafen, and numb players. Boulder, score the winning goal with a seven-foot ball that can crush players. Breakout, last team standing on a rapidly disappearing platform wins, or any of dozens of other events. Who will be this year's A Rank champion? Find out in this season of Battle Games!
The Battle Games are the most popular international professional sport at the end of the 21 century. Each game has three rounds, which can be any of dozens of sanctioned events. With weapons that stun, every fighting style known to man, and teams from around the world, it is the ultimate combination of melee combat and strategy.
This year's favored team to win is Annuna, with their S-ranked captain and star player Giant Slayer. Disaster strikes when Giant Slayer is injured and put out for the rest of the season. Leadership of the team falls to the militaristic and cruel vice-captain, Harpy. To complicate matters, the team has to deal with an arrogant new player, dark secrets, and their greatest rival team, Thunder. Can Harpy lead Annuna to the A-rank championship and victory, or will they tear each other apart before the games get the chance? Find out in the first installment of Battle Games!

Knowledge is power. That would be the motto of Lander University, had it not been snatched up and used to death by others long before the school was founded. For while Lander offers a full range of courses to nearly all students, it also offers a small number of specialty classes to a very select few. Lander is home to the Hero Certification Program, a curriculum designed to develop students with superhuman capabilities, commonly known as Supers, into official Heroes.

When out-of-shape IT technician Roen wakes up and starts hearing voices in his head, he naturally assumes he’s losing it. He isn’t. As of last night, he has a passenger in his brain - an ancient alien life-form called Tao, whose race crash-landed on Earth before the first fish crawled out of the oceans. Over the millennia his people have trained human heroes to be great leaders, to advance our species at a rate far beyond what it would have achieved on its own. Split into two opposing factions - the peace-loving, but under-represented Prophus, and the savage, powerful Genjix - the aliens have been in a state of civil war for centuries.

Trapped in his dead-end job and having just turned 40, John’s started spending more time grinding in virtual reality MMORPGs than he does grinding for his real-world job--and that hasn’t gone unnoticed by human resources!

The Success Paradox is the improbable story of a life and business transformed, told in a warmly authentic style that says: “I hit rock bottom, I surrendered, I began doing the opposite of what I’d been doing before, miracles happened, and here’s what you can learn from my journey.” With riveting personal details that illuminate his discoveries, Gary details how he defied the odds—not just to survive but to thrive—by implementing a series of paradoxical strategies, fundamentally opposite to anything he’d ever done before.

Competitors collide in this excellent battle arena
Throw together a few teammates that are bound to butt heads and stick them in a competitive tournament against battle-hardened samurai and yandere psychos, then add locker room intrigue and clandestine organizations, and you have Battle Games! I loved the character interactions during their intense and punishing training sessions. The relations between teams, and the slow peeling away of secret pasts will leave you looking forward to what comes next. Many interesting opponents appear, each with unique battle styles that keep the games fresh for the reader, and there's a smattering of future tech that gives the story a science fiction touch.
Well worth a read or a listen, and I'm looking forward to the next one.

Not for me
I was worried about the author doing the reading with his own voice, but I was pleasantly suprised. There was a bit too much high school drama for people who are suppose to me collage graduates. I also felt the women acted too much like anime girls. Angry and happy to kick/punch all the time and everyone still really cares for them.
