Would you consider the audio edition of Tarzan of the Apes to be better than the print version?
I haven't read the print version, but the audio performance definitely kept me glued to my seat. It was certainly better than the movies!Who was your favorite character and why?
Of course, Tarzan is my favorite character. He reminds me of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein: or The Modern Prometheus in his nobility, integrity, earnest and uncalculating honesty. His only lie is a whopper, and totally unexpected -- this is definitely NOT the movie, thank goodness!What does David Ian Davies bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Mr. Davies's performance is first-rate. His characters are all individuals with their own peculiarities, accents, styles and manners of speech. I was enthralled throughout the telling, and even cried out involuntarily at the end!If you could take any character from Tarzan of the Apes out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Tarzan, of course! The dinner would have to be at a very good steakhouse, for only in such a place could Tarzan get his meat rarer than mine!Any additional comments?
As you see, I have nothing but exclamation points to punctuate my sentences. Tarzan of the Apes is an exclamation of humanity in the face of primeval jungle ferocity and ruthlessness -- it was pure joy to, for a while at least, be a part of such a great story!Great Story!

If you could sum up Tarzan of the Apes in three words, what would they be?
bygone age adventureWhat did you like best about this story?
it moves quicklyWhat does David Ian Davies bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He brings a depth and bridge of personal closeness between an older text to a younger listener. He makes this probably more fun than it might be just to read.Any additional comments?
I would listen to additional Burroughs books if the same narrator was providing the reading.It was fun.

I truly enjoyed and could not put down this classic tale. From his origins which where much more plausible than any others I have seen before, through his modernization to what we call civilized, I was at the edge of my seat. I think this is a phenomenal value and highly recommend this book. I wish it was longer since I could not get enough.
Wow a true classic

Not Hollywood's version...

What a surprise I was in for. The story was very fascinating and really shades a different light on Tarzan. After 8 hours of listening, I was not ready for the story to end.
The narrative may seem a bit dry and outdated at first, but the story really makes up for it!
More than I had expected...

For those with small children, you should reconsider listening to this audiobook in the car with them as there is violence and an unrealistic portrayal of gorillas. Older children will enjoy it.
A great story, and a great audiobook
