If you haven't discovered audio books, you don't know what you're missing. The great thing is, you can listen while driving, doing dishes, working on a car, running, biking, you name it. I love audio books, and so does my wife Nanci.

The Chasm is in some ways the most purely imaginative book I've written, yet it has some gritty references to the struggles and dead end streets of this life.
