[@tobypack6328]

I’ve read “War of the Worlds”, “The Invisible Man”, “The Time Machine”, & now , this! Thanks Gov’na

[@lifesabeach7]

I can suspend my disbelief for the whole of this story and is truly one of my favourite H.G Wells stories but am the only one who thinks it weird that they were adrift for 8 days without learning the sailors name?

[@arebee8567]

Not really. Look at some last names : carpenter, sergeant, cook, and smith… I’m guessing that was a blacksmith? Either way names aren’t important. Title perhaps

[@incognito8p298]

Its so great that every time i go looking for a new title ill come across your version. Hearing that voice is always a good sign that im going to like it.

It's far better than some random lady who doesn't speak english as her first language. You never know what you're going to get from a librivox audiobook.

[@ikindalikeamazon]

There are actual audiobooks voiced by the actual actor who played gandalf... like the oddessy. Its actually amazing. this guy is certainly not the worst but reads way too aggressively and monotonously to convey the book particularly well or keep the attention of your mind... shame, he has a great voice and if he spoke without that intense knife edge, with more patience... then he could be excellent, captivating. The story is already intense enough on its own and him yelling the whole thing is a bit too much.

[@Peckerwood-502]

Thank you sir for the great narration.

[@cha5]

One of my favorite H.G. Wells stories that for me no movie adaptation can really do justice to it, although IMHO the 1930's movie 'The Island of Lost Souls' comes closest to the tone of the original Well's story. I can kind of understand why no movie adaptation ever used the name of the original narrator 'Edward Prendick' from the original story though. :-)

[@WalterJoergLangbein]

Excellent story!

[@WildTrek]

The backstory of the Kilmer/Brando version was better than the movie itself lol. What a weird set that must have been.

[@elijahblechman8633]

Island of Lost souls is a great movie in its own right. The book still hasn't been done proper Justice though.

[@lescu21]

I find it so fascinating. This story writen in the late 1800s has such a vivid story line. I believe this inspired many others. There is a Manga from the 1960s called blue submarine no 6 that has a mad scientist creating an army of humanoid/chimera species. I wonder if he was inspired by the island of Dr. Mureau.

This Gentleman actually has a decent speaking voice some of the readers I've heard narrating other books so far are terrible .

[@Ikarody]

He has the voice that one would imagine in a study with a glass of whiskey and chewing on a stub of a cigar

[@Bomber411]

​@@Ikarody he smokes from a pipe, in my mind, whiskey straight. He wears dress pants, suspenders and a fedora when out. Presently, but not always, a bowtie stands out from his freshly pressed dress shirt. He smells of rich intoxicating cologne which blends well with the pipe smoke, confusing the olfactory to which one scent ends and the other begins. Then, suddenly, there is a knock at the door. He reaches for his cane, which serves more as esthetic and possible weapon if need be as he walks confidently to peer out the window. It is his driver, arrived to take him to the gentleman's lounge in the next village. Presently, he walks towards the tall wooden coat rack next to the door. He reaches for his fedora which hangs haphazardly on the top hook of the coat tree, and drapes his coat over his arm. Then upon opening the door and acknowledging the weather, puts it on quickly as he departs briskly and respectably out into the rain.

[@tramplamps]

Azimov has some great stores about the debate about what makes humans the top of the chain. Try Robots of Dawn. Unless I’m remembering that book of short stories wrong, but I cannot help but think of the early 90s Film of this Wells Book that could have been. There is an interesting documentary about it and the film that it did eventually become, but I would have still loved to had seen what the original concept would have been, especially after hearing the source material.

When he returns from the island of the Houyhnhnms, the horses with a peaceable society, and the Yahoos, disgusting humanlike creatures. On his return, Gulliver avoided people for a long time. He just stayed in the stables a lot.

[@RetaliationStudios1997]

This has to be one of my favorite novels of all time, because the thought of coming to an island of half-human, half-animal hybrids created by a man with a serious god complex is astounding. And the scary part is... it could be possible to create an island of Dr. Moreau! There are a lot of people out there who are a lot like Dr. Moreau, and they end up either dead or in prison. Recently, my father told me that in China, scientists are working on half-human, half-animal super soldiers by injecting humans with animal DNA. So, I believe H.G. Wells has done it again; he predicted war and nuclear and laser guns, wireless communication, and moon landings, and now I think the prediction of genetic science has officially come true in 2021, and the man is already dead! It's like he's predicting his last prediction FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE!
