There will never be a better AT book.

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

Hilariously funny book - loved every minute of it. So well brilliantly well read. I recommend this to everyone, all the time.

What was one of the most memorable moments of A Walk in the Woods?

Katz ditching half the contents of his pack on the first day. And Bill's understandable terror of BEARS!!!!!

Have you listened to any of William Roberts’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Down Under, Neither Here nor there, Made in America, Notes from a big country. All extremely well read, William Roberts conveys the humour better than Bill Bryson himself.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

If you go into the woods tonight...Prepare for a Bear surprise!

Any additional comments?

Everyone should read this!

Makes you want to pack your bag and head off

As a person who does quite a bit of hiking herself, I really enjoyed this book, it's funny, it's entertaining and it certainly makes you want to pack and head out for your own adventure. William Robertson's narrating is just excellent.

superb

always a good listen. maybe ive heard it 20 times now. just a classic. gold

Informatively adventurous

...and funny too. Bryson adds humour and information throughout the travels they take. Always a little qwerk around each bend.

Fairlyl Entertaining

I liked the way the author interwove some natural history with his story but would have found it more interesting and more entertaining if there was more about his walking through the woods. Sometimes I found it a little slow when he'd "side-track". I didnt' find it as funny as other reviewers did.
