Episode 8; The Handmaid's Tale: Special Edition, Review

31/5/2017

Rarely does a piece of entertainment live up to the hype but with The Handmaid's Tale it truly does.

The narration by Claire Danes is superb but what makes this book so appealing is the emotional wrangler writer Margaret Atwood puts the reader through. The story is full of ideas that feel true to life enough to worry you while still remaining poignant today.

This is simply one of the best books I have listened to in a long time.

Episode 6; Just One Damned Thing After Another: An Audible Original Drama, Review

22/5/2017

The library of Audible Original Dramas continues to grow with Jodi Taylor's Just One Damned Thing After Another, adapted by Marty Ross.

This is a first foray for Paul into the St Mary's Chronicles but with a strong cast and a creative pedigree from Audible studios, hopes are high for a dramatic trip through time with Doctor Max and her cohorts.

At just over 7 hours the book was a romping ride with one question mark marring but not breaking the experience.

Episode 5; Into The Water, Review

22/5/2017

Paul jumps head first into this new ttile from acclaimed writer Paula Hawkins. This inspite of the fact he has yet to be entertained by The Girl on the Train in any of its forms.

Into The Water is presented as a cast narration of a POV story and has all the trappings of a British crime drama with odd locals, a big city invader as well as a local mystery that has many questions hanging over it.

The true greatness of this book is its complex yet believable cast of characters and the intricacies that hold family life together.

Episode 4; Alien: River of Pain: An Audible Original Drama, Review

17/5/2017

As the Alien Universe increases its lore with new films and books, Audible are working hard to help listeners enjoy the Xenomorphic tales.

River of Pain is the second Audible Original Drama to be released in successive years and it helps to fill in the story of Newt and her family on the planetoid known as LV426.

It works surprisingly well as you can hear from Paul's review. With it's wonderful cast and superb directior in Dirk Maggs, it should have been more obvious.
