Reviews
another great performance by RS
Patrick Bergin
the story here is. Great and enjoyable as the earlier volumes of Tarzan (I actually like this about as well as the first and better generally than the second and third. Snell on is a wonderful reader and does an excellent job with character accents and voices to distinguish the dialogue for the listener. I'll probably take in the whole series.
Tremendous Action Adventure
Angels Walk
another great example of Sir ACD's magic. The movies made back in the 30's & 40's attempted to bring these stories from the book, yet failed, due in part, no doubt, to the rigors of acceptable behaviors in polite society. I love LibriVox
Very good.

A good story and a good reader.
Jolly Good Book

This book was wonderfully written! The amazing complexity of the books plot any the relative closeness of the characters, along with the animal's emotion and devotion to the human characters is awesome.

I actually listened to this thinking it was the second Tarzan novel and didn't suffer for it, in fact anyone who knows the premise of the Tarzan character can listen to this without having read or listened to any of the other Tarzan stories. The story is the epitome of the Pulp Genre, taking reality and giving it a little kick into the unbelievable, which makes it both exciting and fantastic. The Son of Tarzan follows, strangely enough, the Son of Tarzan as events roll over the Greystoke estate and Tarzan's son finds himself alone in the Jungle as a young lad. Adventure, fights, close calls, and even love come to the son of the great man as he swings from tree to tree. There are enough characters in this story both of the animal kind and the human variety to keep it interesting throughout. Good guys and bad guys all putting the love aspect of the story into jeopardy. This wasn't a story I couldn't put down, but it was one I kept coming back to. The reader was pretty good and did some interesting voices that I found amusing. Read more of my reviews of Free Audio at http://freeaudioreview.blogspot.com/

not bad but not what I wanted from a Tarzan story. it's basically an alternate origin story for Tarzan. The last book was my favorite so far and to be met with a lukewarm story made this a slog to listen through, the fantastic narrator really sells the story though and made it bearable.
