Jules Verne
Edgar Allan Poe's telling of Arthur Pym's narrative is shown to be true as events come together that bring out clues that help Captain Len Guy trace the fate of his brother's ship the Jane; the very ship that Arthur Pym was on board at the time of his disappearance. Through the efforts of Mr. Joerling, the crew of the Halbrane is enticed to make the trip to Antarctica to search for any survivors of the Jane. (Summary from Wikipedia) (8 hr 19 min)

maybe I am picky but I did not enjoy the narrator as much as others. she did a good job just dull during even some very exciting desturbing parts of the story. very monotonous tone and rhythm. a good story though
Verne is Wonderful

The story was great, complete with twist in the plot. The reader was good but had a pattern that didn't fit at times. All in all, good.
My Favorite

I love this book and the reading. It is so amazing how Verne interlaces Poe's original story into his own---and expands it. Very clever. You really have to listen carefully to get all the details, but it is well worth it. I give this book---and the reader---ten stars.
Long and Disappointing

If you found this Verne story long and boring, I encourage you to listen to The Mysterious Island read by Mark F Smith. A fantastic story by Jules Verne wonderfully read by Mark.
great reader. the book to me wasn't that great.
The reader did a wonderful job. I just wish the story was better.
Great book:)
