Story
One hundred fifty years of Roses' Tolivers, Warwicks, and DuMonts! We begin in the antebellum South on Plantation Alley in South Carolina, where Silas Toliver, deprived of his inheritance, joins up with his best friend Jeremy Warwick to plan a wagon train expedition to the "black waxy" promise of a new territory called Texas. Slavery, westward expansion, abolition, the Civil War, love, marriage, friendship, tragedy and triumph-all the ingredients (and much more) that made so many love Roses so much-are here in abundance.

Story
At the height of WWII, five idealistic young Americans receive a mysterious letter from the OSS, asking them if they are willing to fight for their country. The men and women from very different backgrounds - a Texan athlete with German roots, an upper-crust son of a French mother and a wealthy businessman, a dirt-poor Midwestern fly fisherman, an orphaned fashion designer, and a ravishingly beautiful female fencer - all answer the call of duty, but each for a secret reason of his or her own. They bond immediately, in a group code-named Dragonfly.

Story
How Green Was My Valley is Richard Llewellyn’s best-selling - and timeless - classic, as well as the basis of a beloved film. As Huw Morgan is about to leave home forever, he reminisces about the golden days of his youth when South Wales still prospered, when coal dust had not yet blackened the valley. Drawn simply and lovingly, with a crisp Welsh humor, Llewellyn’s characters fight, love, laugh, and cry, creating an indelible portrait of a people. Richard Llewellyn (1906–1983), a Welsh novelist, was born in Hendon, England, in the county of Middlesex.

Publisher's Summary
A sweeping new drama from the beloved, best-selling author of Roses.
Texas in the early 1900s, its inhabitants still traveling by horseback and barely familiar with the telephone, was on the cusp of an oil boom that, unbeknownst to its residents, would spark a period of dramatic changes and economic growth. In the midst of this transformative time in Southern history, two unforgettable characters emerge and find their fates irrevocably intertwined: Samantha Gordon, the privileged heiress to the sprawling Las Tres Lomas cattle ranch near Fort Worth, and Nathan Holloway, a sweet-natured and charming farm boy from far north Texas. As changes sweep the rustic countryside, Samantha and Nathan's connection drives this narrative compulsively forward as they love, lose, and betray. In this grand yet intimate audiobook, Meacham once again delivers a heartfelt, big-canvas story full of surprising twists and deep emotional resonance.

Great story, especially if you are from Texas and love the land.
As I said, a very easy and delightful listen as far as the story goes. However, narrators, like good actors, should do their researched. Countless mispronunciations. No one in Texas calls Bexar County Bex-are". It's "bear." I thought I would die when they called Herefords "heer-fords". It's Hur-furds, repeatedly! Dang. If you want to write about our state, learn how Texans say things. Was there no editor on the audio production? Casey and Brian are clearly,"not from these parts."

B+ for this one
I have recently discovered Leila Meacham’s books, starting out with her best, I think, “Roses”. That and “Somerset”, the prequel, are 4 star listens. This selection, “Titans”, was good enough for an audible credit, however it did drag at times throughout. Narration kept me interested enough to finish, since there are two narrators.

Texas soap opera
Exactly…this is a Texas soap opera, set against the backdrop of the early days of discovering oil. This is not intended as disparagement; there is some interesting history worked into the story and with all the drama of a soap opera storyline, the book is entertaining. But the characters are just ridiculous, so superficial and one-dimensional.

Enjoyable but long
The plot was great and I enjoyed it. But the story was way longer than it needed to be. At times conversions or story points were repeated from someone else’s point of view, but didn’t add to the story. That caused the story to drag at times. It seemed like the writer wanted to make sure everyone understood, as if we couldn’t figure out what was going on!!!
I had to put the story away at times because I got tired of hearing the same thing over and over. But I was invested in the plot and wanted to know how things worked out. I did eventually finish and I’m glad I did.
Narrators were fantastic. Characters pulled me in.

I felt a bit led by the nose...
The book spells out the storyline repetitively. The reader never gets the theatrical climax one hopes for in a family saga. There is just too much explanation prior to any event to keep excitement in the story.
