When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help. Surely she can give her favorite author moral support over the holiday break and get the manuscript to her boss at Tea & Sympathy Publishing in time for the new year. When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.

Stories good, but avoid the narrator.
The stories are good. The quality of narration is much lower than the standard Audible narration. The narrator had a repetitive cadence and inflections in reading aloud that did not fit the flow of the text, that listening became a grating experience. There are also audio issues in the clarity of the reading in parts of the reading.
But, since the length was quite long, if you just want noise in the background that won't be too interesting to listen to while you try sleep, it could fit the bill.

Narrator's voice oye!
What would have made Fifty Fantastic Tales better?
The narrator had only one inflection in her cadence. It was grating. The narrator needs to develope a greater range of voices and tempo.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
I can not bear to continue listening. I wish I had a hard copy to read.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
Great stories..
