Well written and good storytelling

I was prepared to be disappointed but after a couple of chapters found this to be captivating. Good plot, a clever twist on a common theme and good dialogue to boot. Highly recommended

Decent listen

Not bad a little repetitive, but a decent listen. just gotta stick it out for a bit.

The worst book I've ever finished on Audible

It reads like a rough draft, with zero editing. The characters outside of like two are interchangeable, most of the plot is filler (walk around in jungle, get attacked by dinosaurs, shoot them, repeat), and "hardpan" was on the author's word of the day calendar on every consecutive day he was writing this book.

Absolutely no research on prehistoric life was done, if it was possible to do negative research he seems to have done that. He had a fixation on describing eyes with random round household objects, and weirdly precise descriptions of the women. Description of everything was both flowery and generic at the same time. The pacing was awful. Many sentences were repeated, and I don't know whether that was the narrator or the author.

Even if you're into this genre, I would not recommend this book. It's just really really bad.

Must of watched Jurassic Park and the martian!

The story was good at the first hour mark but it seemed that the author only knew the basics of dinosaurs and only that plus describing there eyes to household objects seemed like I was being told by a child or teenager. the ending was lack luster and if I wanted to be intrigued I wouldn't want this in my selection. don't waste your credit here plus the narrator repeats lines multiple times in the story so it's not worth the credit.... ps tyrannosaurus Rex was closer to humans in time scale then it was to stegosaurus that was 100 million years T-Rex ... So do your science before you write a book 👎

One of the worst

One of the worst if not the worst book on audible
Horrible writing terrible narration narrating

This one starts out fine.

It starts out good. Once we get to the daily survival story though, it loses all steam and dies. There's not really any excitement or expectation for the rest of the story. By the last few chapters you already know how it's going to end, and you're exactly right. it's colorless and uninteresting.
