journey to the center of the earth verne

Since this was told in the first person, this is a bit harder to decide. Which character – as performed by Simon Prebble – was your favorite? I found the ending to be a bit abrupt, we were at one place then suddenly were in another and everything worked out. What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!) However, the reading itself by Simon Prebble is first rate and really carries the story. While I do not wish to judge the story as it is a classic and has some very good parts to it, I find that the story tends to drag in places and focus on the science and geology of the setting, not on the more fantastic nature of the story.While I understand that this is a style of writing some enjoy, I cannot but feel that it makes the story feel longer and dwells on things that most readers wouldn't care for. Would you consider the audio edition of Journey to the Center of the Earth to be better than the print version? For this reason, I have rated an audiobook that deserves 4 stars as 1 star.Īmazing reading of an otherwise wordsome story Unfortunately, Audible does not always give its older audiobook editions close scrutiny when it comes to accuracy and quality. I've contacted Audible support twice about this mix up, but no quick solution appears forthcoming. I have nothing personal again Davidson, but I find his narration style to be supercilious and effeminate. However, when I purchased and downloaded the audiobook, to my great surprise, I discovered that it is a version narrated by Frederick Davidson. In fact, the preview audio is indeed Prebble's narration. Be aware though that Audible is offering Blackstone Audiobooks's edition of Journal to the Center of the Earth with Simon Prebble as the narrator. Even though I understand as an adult that the center of the earth is a rotating core of molten metal, Verne's novel still captures my imagination. I have always loved Journey to the Center of the Earth.
