This is a truly valuable, not to say amazing, collection of great classical works compiling wisdom as useful today as it was when written. Seneca's brilliant observation on the shortness of life is, by itself, worth more to any person than this whole compendium will cost you.

This compendium includes Consolations From A Stoic by Seneca; On The Shortness of Life by Seneca; Lectures and Fragments of Musonius Rufus; Ethical Fragments by Hierocles; Meditations In Verse by Marcus Aurelius and more.

In addition to these six books, you receive two image galleries and Seneca the Stoic – a biographical essay.

Stoic Six Pack is an amazing collection of translated philosophical lectures I found very useful in my studies and research. "That women too should study philosophy" by Musonius Rufus was especially helpful in my case... "Which is more effective, theory or practice" was written so many centuries ago, yet is still relevant today. This collection of great works is worth five stars.

Seneca is a great antidote for the overload of cliches we are bombarded with everyday. For example, everywhere people repeat that 'Life is short'. He points out that it is long enough, if only we budget our time wisely.

3.0 out of 5 stars lyrical, haunting fantasy
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2015
Verified Purchase
This is a beautifully written, evocative collection of fantasy stories. The writing is so lyrical that these tales read like a cross between prose and poetry. The authors chose their themes from many sources, including, in the case of Xina Marie Uhl, classical mythology. Anyone familiar with the myth of Demeter will delight in what this author does to expand and slightly rearrange the that myth, although she remains absolutely faithful to its essence. The rest of the stories are exquisite, if haunting and strange to those used to more modern themes and presentation.

I must say, however, that the narration is an excellent example of why authors seldom make good narrators. Audio book narration is more than just reading aloud to children, friends, or even small groups. It requires certain skills that were not present in this performance. Although the narration was adequate, it was barely so, and I would have enjoyed this lovely book more had it been presented by a true professional in the field.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for this unbiased review via the courtesy of AudioBookBlast dot com.

The “Meditations in Verse" by Marcus Auelius and James Blake drew me to this collection. I found all the stories in this Stoic Six Pack 2 were well-written by outstanding minds and very informative. Great collection!
