Sometimes less is more

Revisado: 12-20-22

I love the topic but I couldn’t tell if many of the player quotes were archived interviews or recorded intentionally for this series. It’s a little heavily produced with the sound effects too. I would really just prefer the great story without all the bells and whistles.

Interesting but lacking

Revisado: 09-18-22

I feel bad for the author because he admits he spent 20 years on the subject without finding that smoking gun. It speaks well that he avoids the slippery slop of conspiracy theory. Sadly it couldn’t come to a conclusion because of all the barriers put up by others. Really different angles on the Manson murders kept me coming back.

Good finale - tied a few things together

Revisado: 03-19-17

We want to know more about Snoke - I would be a little disappointed if it was only Gallius Rax, he should be something ancient. Can't wait for the next film, but this'll do for now. The sound effects readings are always a little weird but that's always been Star Wars audiobooks. The Snap voice sounds a lot like Futurama's Fry.

Apprehensive about it at first but loved it

Revisado: 09-17-16

I was apprehensive when I saw the words "unauthorized" and "uncensored " because I've read things like that, that end up being crap, but these guys are authentic and knowledgeable. A pretty evenhanded telling in my opinion. I kind of wish dates were attributed with the quotes (maybe they are in the print version?) Can't wait for the sequel!

Nice story but not well sourced on historical details

Revisado: 02-16-16

It's a fun read, but DNA evidence of Blue Jacket's descendants confirmed that he was not white. Most conversations in this read are pure speculation or legends. If this sparks an interest in the reader for history, that's great. As historical fiction, it has a good narrative flow. The writer was very familiar with the period and major events throughout Kentucky and the Old Northwest. But to start with the words "this is a true story", it should not take such liberty with other people's thoughts and words. Use dialogue from people's letters, reports, and diaries. Good history books are well sourced and able to stand up to scrutiny.

Heartbreaking and introspective

Revisado: 12-09-15

It was interesting peeking inside this great mind. He was upfront about his business failings and you understand why he wanted a century to make sure everyone was long dead when he told the whole story. The losses in his life were painful to read. Very insightful.

Good history- robotic reading

Revisado: 07-29-15

I like the traditional "challenge what you knew about this character" story, but if you told me it was read by a robot I would have believed you. While words were clear, there was almost no inflection or change in tone throughout the book.
