Not as good as the book
Reviewed: 07-14-19
This was probably the best of the Shatner-verse books.
Unfortunately you'll enjoy reading the book more. Shatner's performance is fine, the production is fine but this has been adapted and as such, is missing parts from the book itself.
Still enjoyable, but the actual book fills in the bla KS way better IMO.

Story5 out of 5 stars 6,953
April 25, 1986 in Chernobyl was a turning point in world history. The disaster not only changed the world’s perception of nuclear power and the science that spawned it, but also our understanding of the planet’s delicate ecology. With the images of the abandoned homes and playgrounds beyond the barbed wire of the 30-kilometer Exclusion Zone, the rusting graveyards of contaminated trucks and helicopters, the farmland lashed with black rain, the event fixed for all time the notion of radiation as an invisible killer.

Amazing in depth accounting of the disaster
Reviewed: 06-19-19
I'm a bit fascinated by the Chernobyl disaster and as such have read a lot about the events leading up to it and the aftermath. I saw this book in a local bookstore and knew I had to get it. I decided to grab the audio book so I could listen at work and at the gym. If you saw the HBO show and are wanting to k ow the real story, this is the book for you. It's very dry, this is not a dramatization. This is like reading a text book, and that's a good thing. By the e d of this you will understand the players, their motivations and the science behind the RBMK reactor. You will understand a little about what life was like in soviet Russia. You will be horrified, and sad, and vastly informed. Your enjoyment will depend on your desire to learn the facts, as like I mentioned, this is not a story.ut an accounting. I highly recommend it.

The movie was better
Reviewed: 10-18-17
I don’t know. You get a better feel for the characters in this and the ending is slightly different but the performance was questionable. Our performer does a serviceable Tennessee, a fantastic David and a horrible everyone else, particularly Daniels. I cringed every time he read anyone who was shouting, excited or Daniels.
It doesn’t really tell you anything more than you already got from the movie. I wouldn’t spend the credit on it again.
