I would highly recommended to listen this book.

I knew some things mentioned in the audiobook and I also just learned more its overall good audiobook especially if you are new to trying to The Ancestor in the Mirror

Timely and excellently written

The essays fit together to provide insights into the political moment. It's a deeper dive into subjects I thought I understood, and I learned so much.

Very good

loved it. great writing with good narration. I had to listen to the end twice! it's a must-listen.

Provocative but potential unrealized

The story of (spoiler) the role of the icemen in the narrator’s life provocatively unfolds to lead us to think about what it means to be human. The main character, however, repeatedly behaves in an unbelievably passive manner when told she is the new heir and boss. She is attacked by an employee’s dog, and held prisoner in the castle, failing to assert her rights as heir. She strangely makes no case for her staff to organize a helicopter for her husband’s visit when the future of the family depends on her having a child. We are told her husband has skills that are needed in organizing the various businesses, yet she doesn’t try to assert her right to bring him in. Despite these plot issues, the author provides a sense of place that will make you feel you have experienced Italy’s northern Alpine region and you have experienced what it might be like to meet a tribe of distant hominid ancestors. You know what they look like. You will have considered all the issues of contact and will never feel the same about the Alps or flat feet.

Outstanding historically correct audiobook

One of the best audio-books of the past fifty years. I got a little stuck in the weeds a couple of times- but there are part that are absolutely inspired the decorating was so good. Thank you for decorating The Ancestor in the Mirrors. I listening them all in a month. thank you Mendez Machin

Everything is very well explained with example

I've enjoyed every moment and I thought this audio-book was thoroughly intriguing. It was very cleverly decorated you could feel the fear and tension of the characters. It was surprisingly different in a good way. Loved the ending.

Really interesting

The Ancestor in the Mirror is a compelling narrative that broadens both the reader's knowledge and imagination by fusing science fiction with historical events and science with fantasy. Outstanding work, author.
