This classic deserves better

over produced - i don’t need another movie
Revisado: 06-06-23
i found all the actors music background noise to be very distracting. i listened to the first 12 books simply ready by scott brick and those were great. this was jarring.
it would be better if it was an Option but currently there’s not another version of this book available w just a clean read through so you HAVE to listen to all the noise if you want to listen to this book.
the material is great. the voice actors are all individually great. the sound editing is great. together it’s a bit much. sometimes i like these teleplays but this one ..
i just want to focus on the story. i don’t need all the bells and whistles. there’s the Three Movie Versions for that.

not for everyone
Revisado: 06-20-22
this series is tough. blood. death. gore. this 2nd book (whole series) i’ve read a few times. and i loved the 1st one so much that this second was a VERY jarring start. i almost thought i mistakenly picked up a different series. however. altho i don’t like the 2nd or 3rd books as much as the 1sronly listening to/ reading it alone doesn’t feel like a complete story.
i like this series a lot. but it’s not like most popular fantasy. it’s doesn’t follow the standard modern fantasy tropes [well a few; orphan is miraculously skilled! .. but it’s almost impossible to Completely avoid and this isn’t a regular story arc so i forgive].
i love it. i dont recommend it lightly. and i barely ever actually take time to review because it’s all so subjective. a book recommendation is such an intimate thing. it takes so many things into consideration. an impersonal online review, for me, is weird.
that being said thanks for reading to this point.
the story is unconventional. may be hard to read for general public. gore. death. violence. repetitive words. pagan rituals. sacrifice. slavery. women rising up and taking over.
readers be aware. <3

Historia
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

audio not so good; do it old school.
Revisado: 07-23-21
the guys voice is too gruff, doesn’t suit character. BOO. YAY. feels so forced and doesn’t have any kind of flow. it feels like someone reading a dictionary.
luckily i read this paperback style and so this didn’t ruin the story for me. but i would not recommend as an intro to this story or character.

For 30 years, a secret agency called the Southern Reach has monitored expeditions into Area X - a remote and lush terrain mysteriously sequestered from civilization. After the 12th expedition, the Southern Reach is in disarray, and John Rodriguez (a.k.a. "Control") is the team's newly appointed head. From a series of interrogations, a cache of hidden notes, and more than two hundred hours of profoundly troubling video footage, the secrets of Area X begin to reveal themselves....

i liked it
Revisado: 08-09-20
the second book in this series starts off so unlike the first that it was jarring. i ended up getting the audiobook and it seemed to gel a little better. i separated this story from the first book and glad i did. it comes back around to the oddness of the first. i’m interested to see how it ends.
definitely a weird series. the voice actor is good. unremarkable, just a good solid read.

Historia
Andy McGee and Vicky Tomlinson participated in a drug experiment run by a veiled government agency known as The Shop. One year later, they marry. Two years later, their little girl, Charlie, sets her teddy bear on fire by simply staring at it. Now that Charlie is eight, she doesn't start fires anymore. Her parents have taught her to control her pyrokinesis, the ability to set anything - toys, clothes, even people - aflame. But The Shop knows about and wants this pigtailed "ultimate weapon".

voice actor
Revisado: 01-08-20
the opening is read in a way that doesn’t really match the tone of the scene. or the subject matter. the actor almost seems ... kind of flippant. and it’s disappointing because i really live this book.
