Solid

The story was pretty interesting, but not amazing. That being said, it was well organized and easy listening.

Narration was really good.

Great!

I really enjoyed listening to this book. I wish I had the time to actually read it for myself, but this option provided me with what I believe to be a superb substitute.

Maneaters of Tsavo

Very interesting account of a Englishman sent to track down and kill two man eating lions in Africa around 1898AD. This is a true story of lions attacking and consuming railway track workers

If it wasn’t for the countless witnesses, I’m not sure people would believe it.

It was incredible story is viewed through the eyes of Patterson. Having said that it’s very much steeped in white colonialism. However, he does seem to have a love of Africa that you can only get by being there.

great old fashioned story.

I remember watching the movie ghost and the darkness years ago. after finding out it was based on a true story I wanted to learn more so I found the book and read it and then I discovered this one. I was and am not disappointed a very good reading of it I highly recommend it.
