One of the genre's favorite pairs returns in a classic fantasy short for both Riyria veterans and first-time readers. Several years have passed since the war-weary mercenary Hadrian and cynical ex-assassin Royce joined forces to start their thieves-for-hire organization better known as Riyria. Things have gone well enough for the team as they do "jobs" for various nobles throughout Elan. Usually that means stealing something, but when a young heiress asks them to steal her…well, that's a first for the pair.

I loved this short story! I have a 30 min drive to work, so this was great to listen to for a day. It was easy to follow and kept me engaged! I was thinking about what was going to happen all day and couldn’t wait to listen on the way home!

Ending sucked!! Spoiler alert
Reviewed: 05-07-17
I really, REALLY disliked the ending. There was this great build up throughout the book of their undying live for one another despite thinking each were lost forever. And then… nothing! It was a HUGE let down!

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 13,660
LAPD cop Scott James is not doing so well, not since a shocking nighttime assault by unidentified men killed his partner, Stephanie, nearly killed him, and left him enraged, ashamed, and ready to explode. He is unfit for duty - until he meets his new partner. Maggie is not doing so well, either. The German shepherd survived three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan sniffing explosives before she lost her handler to an IED and sniper attack, and her PTSD is as bad as Scott’s. They are each other’s last chance.

I really enjoyed this book. The ending wasn't alarmingly predictable which was refreshing. I will consider other books from this author. It kept me on my toes near the end and I wanted to hear the ending so badly that I was late to work!

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 77,086
Zachary Quinto - best known for his role as the Nimoy-approved Spock in the recent Star Trek reboot and the menacing, power-stealing serial killer, Sylar, in Heroes - brings his well-earned sci-fi credentials and simmering intensity to this audio-exclusive novella from master storyteller John Scalzi. One day, not long from now, it becomes almost impossible to murder anyone - 999 times out of a thousand, anyone who is intentionally killed comes back. How? We don't know.

Interesting but just okay
Reviewed: 10-11-16
I was expecting/hoping for much more from Zachary Quinto, but it was just an okay performance. I didn't realize until half way through the book that Langdon was a female because he didn't change his voice at all. The story was interesting enough though.

Left me still wanting more
Reviewed: 06-05-16
I love this series. This book focused more on the characters background and an actual story development rather than simply erotica. I really enjoyed this one and hope there's more to come for Gideon Cross and Ava. Maybe a new book can focus on Cross and his relationship with his brother and possibly a growing family.

Absolutely Hilarious!!
Reviewed: 05-01-16
Would you consider the audio edition of Excerpts from The Encyclopaedia Britannica to be better than the print version?
Yes, I would definitely prefer this version over a print version! PLEASE give us more!!
Who was your favorite character and why?
I honestly loved them all, but there were a few that I could probably listen to all day long, just reading the encyclopedia!
Which scene was your favorite?
Who knew that listening to an actor portray definitions would be this much fun!
If you could give Excerpts from The Encyclopaedia Britannica a new subtitle, what would it be?
Sincerity at its worst
Any additional comments?
You won't regret listening to this one! This was absolutely hilarious and definitely gave me a much needed break from my busy and stressful life!

Good Read
Reviewed: 04-06-16
This was a pretty good book. I wanted to keep listening so it kept my attention. Some of it was a little predictable, but not too bad. I felt that the male narrator did a better job than the female narrator at times. It wasn't bad, just not fantastic.
I would recommend this book to others as I did find it enjoyable.

Abby Johnson quit her job in October 2009. That simple act became a national news story because Abby was the director of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Texas who, after participating in her first actual abortion procedure, crossed the line to join the Coalition for Life.

Both sides
Reviewed: 04-19-15
Although it's evident from the very beginning where the author stands, I feel that it still gives the reader a view of both sides. I'd be curious to hear someone's view from within the clinic also. It has helped me understand more my own personal views and for that, I'm grateful. 😊
