Acerca de esta escucha

This is the original 1928 edition of "The Skylark of Space", as published in Hugo Gernsback's legendary Amazing Stories magazine:

In a fortuitous laboratory accident, crack scientist Richard Seaton has unlocked the secret of atomic energy. Now, partnered with his wealthy engineering-genius friend Martin Crane, he's preparing to give the world the gift of limitless, virtually free energy - and of space travel. But others want Seaton's secret for themselves. Backed by an evil industrial trust, the sinister and unscrupulous "Blackie" DuQuesne has a plan to kill Seaton and Crane and seize their invention for himself. But when DuQuesne makes his move, things go wrong, and the three of them wind up lost in the farthest reaches of outer space.

Hard to believe it was written in the early 1900’s

I remembered reading and loving the Skylark series back when I was in grade school.

The storyline is a lot more simplistic and contrived than I remember, but I'm sure it's accurate.

By today's standards it is just laughable, corny, sort of a "gee whiz" style of speech. Not unlike the old Batman TV series with Adam West.

The voice actor is terrible, trying vainly to come up with different-sounding character voices, some of which literally sound like he's pinching his nose while speaking.

In fairness, the voice acting matches the corniness of the writing style, so the end result is a far cry from what you're used to here on Audible.

I was a kid when I read it, and somehow I thought it would be a lot more than it actually is. Instead, it's more like re-reading The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew novels.

Not really adult level fiction.

Kind of fun to hear/read it again, but rather tedious and child-like.

So dissapointing
