Tonight, Osmond Box, the reclusive yet wildly successful writer/director known for his completely surprising Broadway plays, is debuting his seventh and most highly anticipated production of his career: The Guilty. Nothing is known about the story, the setting, the premise, or even the actors involved. The first people to discover the truth will be the lucky ones sitting in those seats opening night.

John Lithgow should and must narrate books full time! His voice gives great value to books I’m sure of that!

A Very Vivid Picture of the Frostwolves's Plight
Reviewed: 11-24-17
I am simply amazed once again by Christie's use of vivid and picturesque descriptions in this novel.
The struggles of the Frostwolves clan, as well as Durotan's dilemma and turmoil in keeping his clan together; to shoulder a huge burden in undertaking the helm from the sudden demise of Garad.
And I applause Toby Longworth's voice acting which really gave not only life, but soul into the characters that we all know and dearly love.
There were times where my hair stood on ends during climactic moments, all thanks to the power and amplifying tone of Toby's voice.
A great story, but unfortunately the ending was weak and all too sudden.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 28,771
As a child, Chris Hooper dreamed of monsters. But in deep space, he found only darkness and isolation. Then, on planet LV178, he and his fellow miners discovered a storm-scoured, sand-blasted hell - and trimonite, the hardest material known to man. When a shuttle crashes into the mining ship Marion, the miners learn that there was more than trimonite deep in the caverns. There was evil, hibernating and waiting for suitable prey.

Good Voice Acting, Poor Story
Reviewed: 10-06-17
Like: Good voice acting, especially Decker's as she is the one voicing Amanda Ripley in Isolation.
Good use of music and sounds from the game (I guess).
Dislike: Poorly written story, making the xenomorphs clearly not deadly and frightening as portrayed in the game Alien: Isolation.
And the inclusion of Ripley is totally unnecessary in my opinion.
Overall, a meh title.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
For those of my friends who lead a busy lifestyle but do love to read books, listening takes the hassle away from focusing 100% on reading.
What did you like best about this story?
The dramatic twists and turns and the ever so maniacal plots involve in this episode is both disheartening and also full of surprises.
What about Roy Dotrice’s performance did you like?
One of the best Narrators that I have ever listened to. His great voice and tremendous vocal portrayal of George RR Martin's characters was brought to life.

Where does The Mystery of the Hanging Garden of Babylon rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
An exquisite and informative historical research title from Stephanie. I have watched her work from the BBC's Documentary before.
