About this listen
The Gift of a Legacy is tender story reminding us that shifting the focus from ourselves to others usually ends up changing us, and often times even the world. Joey Anderson attended his great-grandmother's funeral because he expected to receive a little inheritance money. What he didn't expect was to inherit her bed-and-breakfast, provided he lives there and follows her final instructions. With a little help from his friends, Joey grows up and discovers a world beyond me, my, and I.

Even through the roar and effervescence of the 1920s, everyone in New York has heard of Benjamin and Helen Rask. He is a legendary Wall Street tycoon; she is the daughter of eccentric aristocrats. Together, they have risen to the very top of a world of seemingly endless wealth—all as a decade of excess and speculation draws to an end. But at what cost have they acquired their immense fortune? This is the mystery at the center of Bonds, a successful 1937 novel that all of New York seems to have read. Yet there are other versions of this tale of privilege and deceit.

This is mankind’s last chance. Centuries of greed, pride, and hate have sent humanity hurtling toward disaster, and far from its original purpose. There is only one solution that can reset the compass and right the ship, and it is only two words. With time running out, it is up to David Ponder and a cast of history’s best and brightest minds to uncover this solution before it is too late. The catch? They are allowed only five tries to discover the answer. Andy Andrews combines a riveting narrative with astounding history in order to show us the one thing we must do when we don’t know what to do.

Whether working at the laboratory she adored in Paris or toiling at a university in London, she feels closest to the science, those unchanging laws of physics and chemistry that guide her experiments. When she is assigned to work on DNA, she believes she can unearth its secrets. Rosalind knows if she just takes one more X-ray picture - one more after thousands - she can unlock the building blocks of life.

Where is this Author's head burried?
I bought this book because it was narrated by Ray Porter - and he came through. It was the only think that kept me listening. The book was written by someone that thinks there are simple answers to everything and if you just know that you will solve all the problems that a directionless man has. He didn't really have the answers, just a lemonade world.
It was written in first person about a different man who had all the problems. It did not go into the struggles that the second man had or the psychological problems that he needed to clean up. The author just gave him some tasks to do that miraculously changed him into a "good" man with the desire to become one of the lollipop crowd and I'm sure go dancing off with them to bring other men to their senses.
I'm not opposed to goodness. I am opposed to a writer who makes a list, gives an example for each point and then calls it a good novel - or in this case novella. Give me a good book for my money.
