It"s Not Unabridged
Évalué le: 2024-09-28
This was an excellent book by John Wyndham, and I was hoping to really enjoy it.
Unfortunately, while Audible says that it is unabridged, it is actually abridged, and at least one large and important chunk is completely omitted. I have now reported this to Audible customer service.
While I was listening to it, there seemed to be strange jumps, however I assumed that the problem was with my memory and that the novel wasn"t as good as I remembered.. Finally, I started on the section called "Phase Three". It seemed as though a lot of material had been left out. Sure enough, I checked my copy of the paperback novel, and there were a lot of pages skipped over in the audio book.

Histoire
Once upon a time, in the magical land of San Francisco, there lived a not-so-ordinary girl named Laurel Pettigrew. She was supposed to be the Chosen One. The plan was simple: She would vanquish the great evil Tybus in an epic battle. But destiny had other ideas, and Laurel"s performance in the whole heroics department was a colossal flop. Now, instead of being a legendary hero, Laurel"s the resident pariah of the magic realm. And what’s worse, the dark wizard Tybus swooped in, took over the realm, and forced all supernatural creatures to live under his tyrannical rule.

Entertaining, but could have been better
Évalué le: 2024-04-26
The story was quite entertaining, and some of the performers were quite good. Unfortunately, two of the main performers were very difficult to understand. Specifically, the performer who played Sybil sounded like she had a lisp, and the performer who played Kate had a sort of squeaky voice. If this had been a video production, I would have turned on closed captioning; however, with an audio recording, all I could do was play some sections over and over and over.

Histoire
Patricia Campbell"s life has never felt smaller. Her ambitious husband is too busy to give her a goodbye kiss in the morning, her kids have their own lives, her senile mother-in-law needs constant care, and she"s always a step behind on thank-you notes and her endless list of chores. The one thing she has to look forward to is her book club, a close-knit group of Charleston women united by their love of true crime and paperback fiction. At these meetings they"re as likely to talk about the Manson family as they are marriage, motherhood, and neighborhood gossip.

Good Book if you like Gratuitous Violence
Évalué le: 2024-03-27
The first 1.5 hours of the story were fairly light and entertaining; however, the story suddenly had a scene filled with gratuitous violence where the main character is attacked and has part of her ear ripped off followed by scenes where her husband and children seem totally unconcerned and even want to see her wound.

Excellent Story & Superb Dramatization
Évalué le: 2024-03-22
I read this book many years ago, and always regarded it as one of Arthur C. Clarke"s two best works. When I purchased this audiobook, I was expecting a standard narration. Instead, the people involved in this production actually dramatized it without leaving out a single word from the original. Moreover, it is an superb dramatization.

Just Like Old Times
Évalué le: 2024-02-04
Listening to this audio play was really enjoyable. I hadn"t realized just how much I missed watching the Buffy and Angel television shows until I had the chance to listen to this production. While it didn"t have Buffy, Angel or Willow, it had so many of the other characters that it didn"t really matter. The writing was excellent. It was obvious that Amber Benson put a lot of thought into both the plot and the characterizations.
The performances were all excellent, particularly James Marsters as Spike.
My only regret is that there were some words I just couldn"t get, usually because of background music; and there is no text that I can check, so I"ll never know what I missed.

Background Sound Effects were Much Too Loud
Évalué le: 2023-12-23
I would have given this 5 stars, except that it was frequently difficult to easily hear what the actors were saying. The background sound effects were almost constant, frequently unnecessary and much too loud. On the other hand, the performances were excellent and of course, the story was very enjoyable.
