It is slowly grinding to a halt as the inevitable problems multiply, with no obvious will to counter the decline. One man dreams of humanity becoming a multiplanet species in the hope of preserving the basics of human knowledge through the coming dark ages.The great powers have turned inward, and there is little political will for further space exploration. Funding is minimal, and technological innovation has slowed dramatically. He uses his skills as a fighter to fund his dreams and is, for a time, the heavyweight champion. Using his notoriety, he slowly gathers friends, seeking to find those who can make the dream a reality.Manon, who claws her way up from nothing to wealth; Elizabeth, the miner turned politician; and others help fund the space project. They set up a foundation to search for scientific geniuses in the most unlikely places, looking for children who perhaps can make the journey into space possible, but it is not clear that Earth has any interest in returning to the high frontier.Against a background of indifference, competing interests, and active discouragement, they do manage to establish small independent colonies on the moon and Mars; but the odds are great, protection is difficult, and long-term success is by no means assured. And there are malevolent forces moving in the world. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joseph McKey. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/210858/bk_acx0_210858_sample.mp3.

    Anyone who has been around a narcissist for any length of time is aware of how surly, picky, disagreeable, and anal retentive they can be. People who are only around the narcissist casually will not see a problem in his anal retentiveness. Those who have to live with the narcissist, however, come to realize how difficult and painstaking literally every task is when you are in the presence of the narcissist.   I have seen narcissists become picky and disagreeable over the smallest of things. They are extremely intolerant to others, but they become a nuisance to others at the same time. The narcissist is a complete conundrum of conflicting behaviors and opinions. He hates that other people are picky when it comes to his behaviors, but he has a sharp tongue when he is criticizing others for not doing things "his" way.   This audiobook discusses the anal retentive nature of the narcissist. We talk about how the narcissist is so high-strung and methodical he can hardly get anything done with any efficiency. We discuss how surly he gets when he lives in an environment with other people who clash with him. We will give case examples of people who have had to live with the narcissist’s ridiculous standards, and how it can cause serious emotional damage to try to walk on eggshells in the narcissist’s environment.   Download now to hear more! ungekürzt.
