Terry Pratchett - Thief of Time - audiobooks

Audiobooks - foarte ciudat mod de a parcurge o carte e in parte ca piesele radiofonice...pe care obisnuiam sa le ascult cand eram mica (pe banda de magnetofon) dar si ca unele variante mai moderne pe casete inregistrate de la radio. Iti ia ceva timp pana creierul se obisnuieste sa formeze imaginea mentala dupa auz si nu dupa vaz plus ca necesita mult mai multa concentrare.
Lucruri pe care le pot face in timp ce ascult audiobooks:
sa desenez,
sa scanez,
sa lucrez in photoshop si deci prin includere si in Autocad (I gather)
Nu pot sa: navighez pe net, sa citesc (obviously) si alte chestii care necesita atentia directa.
Dar asta este for a first try...conceptul de a asculta si a lucra in acest timp este foarte interesant. Probabil ca o sa-mi aduc aminte exact ce ascultam doar uitandu-ma la desenele/plansele respective.
How my memory works.

Terry Pratchett books based on a single listening of Thief of Time:

1. WTF they picked up Narnia cand puteau sa aleaga ceva de TP sa ecranizeze? Omule este cracking funny in by himself. Cu un cast de genul Johnny Depp in piratii din Caraibe puteau sa scoata o comedie witty in now time. Si apoi am inceput sa ma gandesc...poate ca TP este un pic prea adanc pentru toate gusturile insa...se poate.

2. Auditors and their colorfull names. God what a joy! Mr. White former Black was cracking.

3. Death voice is absolutely adorable. Scena favorita. Death meeting up with auditor and his companions. Pestilence, Famine, War show up + angel +Chaos. The 5 horsemen of apocalypse.

4. All the puns about time.

5. Lud Sang (whatever spelled) si Lad Sang (aka Sweeper) mai ales scena cu hunters
Sweeper: Do you know what generally happens to armed men attacking an unarmed monk?
Hunters: The monk is a very unfortunate monk...
not the case as monk demonstrates.

6. More Death scenes and Death with the *squeak* Death of Rats.

7. Chocolate used as armunition is just cracking in all by itself

8. Igor scenes and the voice of Igor.

9. Chaos disguised as a milkman

10 Sister pointing out the wierdness of audiobooks
" Audiobooks are not books. Just like ebooks are not books. Get it." desi TP books are the kind of books that would sent her laughing on the ground.

Will dig in deeper TP fandom for a while.
