Enjoyed the story

Enjoyed the audiobook. Narrator was a little strange at times! But I enjoyed being able to listen to the story.

Another Triumph for Inman

Shawn Inman never disappoints, with his imaginative well written prose. He does an amazing job painting his story canvas with well chosen words. I love the diversity and concrete definition of his characters.
And I love, love, love his narrator, Jonathon McClain! He brings the characters to life with his genuineness, warmth and intuition. They make a wonderful team!

Extremely entertaining!

I look forward to the next books in the series. This was very fun, and i enjoyed the narrator!

Great start of a new series

Shawn Inmon crafted an excellent story that is an mashup between an adolescent version of "Land Before Time" and "Jurassic Park" with a time travel vibe to it. He also created a diverse cast that included scientific, military, engineering, hapless and, of course, an insidious company man.

The world building is well done, as are the monstrous creature that inhabit this world.

There are plenty of twists and surprises and a subtle, but constant "devil may care" tone to the story that often amuses one when it's encountered.

Johnathan McClain is an excellent narrator and his performance here proves no different.

I will definitely keep a close eye for book 2 on the series.

Me Too... Me Too...

Shawn Inmon is a wonderful imaginable writer, with his new book Stranded he does not disappoint! Johnathan McClain brings all characters to life and keeps listeners engaged.

Stranded brings listeners within a portal of new worlds and happenings. Full of action and disappointment for characters in the book. Wonderfully surprised to see or hear slight memory of other books written by Mr. Inmon, intertwined in this book.

Left me wanting more, and look forward to the continuation of this story…

Will NOT disappoint.
