Have only listened to half the story yet ... but it’s excellent in a current day sociological sense. Worth listening 👂 to. Good reader. Thank you for uploading this 📚 book. ☘️🙂🌲 Finished listening to this story. Excellent. Sharp ending. Does anyone know if there was a follow up book. Again thanks to the reader. ☘️🙂🌲
This is from 50 years ago. The premise seems to only becoming true right now. Universal Basic Income, no jobs, legalized drugs, education too costly for regular people, 2 political parties representing the same 0.001%. Mack Reynolds got it all right in 1962.
I cannot get over the inconsistency. So, Earth and the entire solar system is going to be destroyed by Nemesis passing by the sun, but won't the same happened to the planet going around Nemesis? Evidently not.
ItMadeMeSignUp lol!! Wrong book, but it's funny that you typed that. That is the book that I just got done listening to, about 20 min ago and I thought the same thing.
@@austridge31 fra-cas , maybe just me ? I’m Welsh so British English with the best accent in the world!!! North wales 🏴 not that southern way of speaking!!! Just joking , maybe !!! But the narration by Mack is as cool as anything else he’s done always a good listen . Thanks for the upload!!! Peace out from the police state of north Wales 🏴!!!
why does every story has a guy "fall in love" with the first girl that talks to him... it seems like writers from books, tv, and movies all have too write that in their stories, can't they just write a good story without the unrealistic "romance".
The writer continually uses or misuses the word 'fracas'. This is not pronounced as fraycas but rather as frakah. The word simply refers to 'a noisy quarrel'. A better word would be 'battle', or on a lesser scale, 'skirmish'. 4,500 people have heard this reading many being young & not tutored fully: How will they use this word?
I think the word 'fracas' is being used as jargon. It might be an intentional down play of the severity of the conflicts the companies fight. It is also possible the organization that governs the conflicts has employed it to distinguish the disputes between the companies from wars between nations.

"My hovercraft is full of eels!"
My story is full of Fracas.
The way he pronounces fracas is the American pronunciation rather than the British pronunciation. Either is correct and acceptable.
We don't do British ! LOL
I favour British spellings of words.
I always heard it as fra-cus not the frey-cus he uses.
@@tra-viskaiser8737 Its pronounced Fra-car. Fra like fracture and car like the thing you drive.

Maybe the world would be a better place if corporations like Amazon and Boeing had fragrances to resolve their problems
Please finish the books
Brilliant little story of rediscovery and a warning about whither the impending Universal Basic Income (UBI) is ultimately taking us .

Talks to him? I think you missing the point, something that rhymes with dissing.

StutleyConstable : also it is a British colloquialism.
Edward Malc definitely mispronounced. very annoying.
Never heard it pronounced any other way. Why don't you just get used to it or don't listen. Nobody cares about your opinion.
Edward Malc it's like the word advertisement, its pronounced totally differently in American ane British English. Both are correct.
