Bad performance

Delivery was choppy, accents were nonsensical.
Some of the characterizations were odd, The author added a bit before and a little after the events of the movie. Too many people already knew each other(different from the movie). This made some reactions to deaths odd as 2 characters show little emotion for losing long-time girlfriends.
The only reason to get this is if you are a fan of the movie. The performance is horrible.

Good Storyline. but...

I liked the story, after all, it's dinosaurs, what's not to like? However, I could not get passed the slow pace of the narration. I tried to increase the speed but that made some characters and narration too fast while some were still agonizingly slow. I'm not criticizing the narrator, or saying you shouldn't give it a listen, I'm only suggesting you listen to a sample first to be sure you're good with the pacing.

Enjoyed it

Was going to rate a 4 but the last hour and a half made it a 5. I really liked it.

Awesome Narration and Fun Story!

He really brought the characters to life. There are some funny moments, some tragic moments, and some tense moments. I really feel like a book can be made or broke by the storyteller and he did a great job of keeping me interested. Chapter 15 was incredible and definitely my favorite. I’m a huge fan of anything dinosaurs, but since the movie wasn’t well received I wasn’t expecting much. Really happy I decided to try this one out.
