Resumen del Editor
There’s a California that everyone imagines, a world of Hollywood glitz and Silicon Valley, and then there’s the real California. The one where everything is the color of dirt. Where the speed freaks gangbang on Haight Street, where evil is lurking, where violence erupts like cystic acne. The place was never crazier than the ’60s and the ’70s, a time when Dad transformed from a hippie-hating Reagan voter into a weed-addled swinger with a crash pad in the Valley.
And right in that moment? There’s this guy who calls himself Zodiac. He’s killing kids and cab drivers; he’s a ghost haunting the San Francisco Bay Area. Is he a freak or a square? We don’t know, can never know. All we have is letters and ciphers and a killer who wears a hood and signs his letters with a crosshairs.
Motor Spirit descends into the Californian sewer, down in the depths of Zodiac. Returning to original sources like newspapers and police reports and small-press publications, with extensive literary analysis of Zodiac’s letters, it offers a history stripped of the mystery. We find a Zodiac who embodies the chaos and catastrophes of the American promised land. It’s the portrait of a killer, a place, and a state of mind.

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.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Historia
In 1528, a mission set out from Spain to colonize Florida. But the expedition went horribly wrong: Delayed by a hurricane, knocked off course by a colossal error of navigation, and ultimately doomed by a disastrous decision to separate the men from their ships, the mission quickly became a desperate journey of survival. Of the 300 men who had embarked on the journey, only four survived - three Spaniards and an African slave.

Historia
This is an easily digestible argument about what rights we have, what rights Republicans are trying to take away, and how to stop them. Mystal explains how to protect the rights of women and people of color instead of cowering to the absolutism of gun owners and bigots. He explains the legal way to stop everything from police brutality to political gerrymandering, just by changing a few judges and justices. He strips out all of the fancy jargon conservatives like to hide behind and lays bare the truth of their project to keep America forever tethered to its slaveholding past.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Historia
In 1177 B.C., marauding groups known only as the "Sea Peoples" invaded Egypt. The pharaoh’s army and navy managed to defeat them, but the victory so weakened Egypt that it soon slid into decline, as did most of the surrounding civilizations. After centuries of brilliance, the civilized world of the Bronze Age came to an abrupt and cataclysmic end. Kingdoms fell like dominoes over the course of just a few decades. No more Minoans or Mycenaeans. No more Trojans, Hittites, or Babylonians.

Historia
In February 1959, a group of nine experienced hikers in the Russian Ural Mountains died mysteriously on an elevation known as Dead Mountain. Eerie aspects of the incident—unexplained violent injuries, signs that they cut open and fled the tent without proper clothing or shoes, a strange final photograph taken by one of the hikers, and elevated levels of radiation found on some of their clothes—have led to decades of speculation over what really happened.

Okay book, great performance
Iphgenia Baal is a pleasure to listen to. Great performance.
When confining himself to the Zodiac, this is a very good book. Good common sense review of existing Zodiac information.
Unfortunately, the author feels the need to interject little political jibes which are mostly just worn out liberal cliches.

Objectively the best Zodiac book
Objectively, this is the best book about Zodiac up to date, especially compared to everything that came before. This book separates hard facts from so many fictional and misleading information. I appreciate how he adressed the innacuracies and myths presented as facts in the Fincher movie for example, while also saying it's one of the best movies about San Francisco.
What's especially appealing to me is how the autor immerses the Zodiac story into the realistic historical, political and cultural context of the 60s and 70s in California. And this historical context is not for the faint of heart: it is a trully realistic, dark, decadent, violent, non sugar coated, accurate historical context of San Francisco bay area at the time. When put into this context, the Zodiac killer is actually a product of his culture and he acts in acordance with the culture: his decisions to switch behaviors, like switching from gun to knife isn't at all bizzare when contextualized: he was competing for attention in the media, and there were very specific, murderous, monstruous cirmustance at the time that inspired him to escalate his behaviors the way he did, aiming to be more noticeable in the media.
That being said, there are a few flaws: at times, the autor uses very crude, crass, almost agressive language, which personally was off putting. The editing is a bit lacking, the speaker used for audio sometimes doesn't enunciate well, so the reader or listener should arm themselves with patience.
In this book there is no speculation about a New suspect, that's in the next book if one is interested. I was more interested in this one.
The metaphor about the Motor Spirit is masterfully implemented and brought full circle in the last chapter, which was so good that iz made the flaws worth it.
