When modern-day occultist Aaron Pace discovers the secrets of inter-dimensional travel via a mystical pathway called The Labyrinth, he wastes no time in exploring a multitude of strange new worlds and alternate realities. But then, Aaron finds himself trapped in the most bizarre dimension of all - a place where dinosaurs coexist with giant robots, where cowboys fight reptilian lizard people, and where even the grass can kill you. This is a world populated by the missing and the disappeared, a world where myth is reality and where the extinct is reborn. Now, side-by-side with his new companions Kasheena and Bloop, Aaron must learn to navigate its dangers and survive long enough to escape...The Lost Level.
Apex is proud to present the first book in Grand Master Award winner Brian Keene's long-awaited new series, a loving ode to lost world classics like Burroughs's Pellucidar, Howard's Almuric, and Lansdale's The Drive-In, but with a thoroughly modern twist that only Brian Keene could conceive.

The narration had a lot of issues, however. First of all, the narrator had an odd speaking pattern where he would pause at the wrong part in sentences. He would clear his throat or grunt here and there. Also, there were intervals where you hear background sounds. A chair squeaking, clicking of the mouse, etc which proved distracting. I feel like all of this should have been edited out. Other than that, solid book.
Great story, subpar narration.

...if you read it to yourself. The fault of this story is 100% the narration. When I started listening, I honestly thought the narrator was doing an ironic imitation of William Shatner with awkward pauses in the middle of sentences (and sometimes in compound words). It quickly became a distraction in terms of trying to enjoy the content of the story. Then there was the constant mispronunciation of words- glaring mistakes that should have been caught. I don't know if this was the result of a disinterested director, but there really is no excuse for this not being corrected and cleaned up.
Fun story destroyed by poor narration

You would think that a guy who gets paid to read for a living would know how to pronounce words correctly. His awkward pausing and emphasis on wrong syllables is pretty distracting.
Overall, a great book read by a lackluster narrator.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I would recommend the Kindle book. I recommend you do NOT buy the Audible version due to the poor quality.What did you like best about this story?
I enjoyed the golden age of sci-fi setting and story.How did the narrator detract from the book?
The narrator was truly bad.It's clear he's not read the material ahead of time, and isn't comfortable pronouncing the words used.
His voice is fine, however he reads the story in a virtual monotone without dramatic inflection, randomly stopping and starting during sentences because it's clear he doesn't really understand or care about what he's reading.
You can virtually hear the wheels grinding as he works his way through sentences. His inconsistent reading kills the narrative tension and is a constant distraction during the listen.
I've listened to other samples of his work which are better, it was clear he didn't like, or wasn't into doing a good job on this book, and just did the bare minimum effort.
Was The Lost Level worth the listening time?
