Summary

Venture into the great outdoors, switch off from your busy life and identify the wonders of the night sky.

The Secret World of Stargazing is the ultimate guide to set you on your epic journey around the cosmos - it's a simple guide to the skies and makes stargazing fun, easy and enjoyable for all - absolutely no equipment is required!

Adrian West, a.k.a. the internet sensation VirtualAstro, will take you through the seasons, showing you exactly what you can spot in the sky throughout the year, whether you're in your back garden or sitting on an exotic beach somewhere! While you're learning how to spot constellations, meteors and comets, you will be switching off your busy mind, sitting still in nature and paying attention to the small details that make up the big picture of life.

You'll finish listening to this beautiful audiobook and come away with a sense of grounding, connection, knowledge and a whole new appreciation of the sky above and the world outside your own - it will soothe your soul.

Slow

I returned the book after listening to about 30 minutes of it.The author is talking too much about why we should be interested in the night sky.If we have bought the book then we are already interested and don't need to be convinced.The book is about 4 hours long and that means you need to get on with the subject.
Maybe it improves if you listen to more than I did.
