An Exciting Story of Survival

Revisado: 05-31-14

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would recommend this book to my friends who share my interest in survival planning and to friends who enjoy a good adventure story. The story is very entertaining and includes many of the items we use when we plan to spend time in the woods, there are also items I plan to buy as a result of listening to this book. Some people are distracted by the level of detail - survival enthusiasts will be thrilled.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Going Home?

The most memorable moment for me was in the beginning when Morgan grabbed his gear and hit the road - I knew then that this would be a good story and I wasn't disappointed.

What about Duke Fontaine’s performance did you like?

When Duke Fontaine portrayed Morgan, he sounded the way I think Morgan would sound - no nonsense. He also portrayed the other characters in such a unique way that I never had to stop and think about who was speaking.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The ending is very moving and very satisfying - I plan to listen to the other parts of the series soon.

Very Interesting

I have a greater understanding of the similarities and differences between how people lived in ancient civilizations and how we live now. I could listen to this several times.

No other book.

What aspect of Mel Foster’s performance would you have changed?

I would have asked him not to give people accents.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

It is more of an informational book than a moving book - there are some great parts with helpful information.
