One of the best-selling books of all time, with over 100 million copies sold in 44 different languages. The novel was extraordinarily popular upon its release and has never been out of print.

Follow the journey of Horace Holly and his ward, Leo Vincey, to a lost kingdom in the African interior. There they encounter a primitive race of natives and a mysterious white queen named Ayesha who reigns as the all-powerful "She", or "She-who-must-be-obeyed". In this work, Rider Haggard developed the conventions of the Lost World subgenre, which many later authors emulated.

This is the blueprint for the Indiana Jones series.

A classic in the truest sense of the word. Excellent story & outstanding prose. The reader did a great job with a lovely voice.

Classic

The book itself is a fun adventure which yields exactly what one would expect from a book written in this time. I personally enjoy the narrative style, along with the slow and thoughtful considerations of various scenes and events which break up the immediate plot considerations. The story itself is good: it kept me interested.

The reader, however, was a struggle. He mispronounces several words, and one particular name throughout the WHOLE book which, for the first several hours, gave me a "nails on the chalk board" feeling every time he said it. He also struggles to give the inflection in dialogue which the narrative itself suggests. However, there are no "mistakes" per se, and his voice is very easy listening.

Enjoyable book, difficult reader

The narrator’s singsong doesn’t add to the experience. The story is very complicated and too talkative.

Tedious.

Hard to get through as every little thing seems to have to be described in detail. Still a good story.

What details

The reader's constant pauses at every single sentence just destroyed the flow of thought of the story. It was by pure will that I finished it. But I am now bald cause I pulled out all of my hair in frustration.

You will go bald listening to this story.

The story is still cracking. The narrator is fine but American and he does not have the cultural background to understand nuance.

This Classic Needs A British Voice

Even though on audible, the reader was really terrible and uninspiring to the imagination, this vivid book captured my attention. For one written, so long ago with no predecessors it’s truly impressive. Compelling plot, and storyline. Totally bizarre characters. An almost believable fantasy. If you want to be transported back to the days of Flash Gordon and Tarzan, read this book.

Quite a yarn

Good story, interesting side characters, but slow pace, old language and narration make it hard to enjoy.

Solid short story

Would you try another book from H. Rider Haggard and/or Alan Munro?

I would not buy another book narrated by Alan Munro - his poor pacing and choppy performance is exceeded only by his abysmal pronunciation. He takes a wonderful story and makes it exceedingly painful to listen to.

What did you like best about this story?

The story itself is classic in every sense of the word. It is a foundational work in the genre. It is absolutely on the same level as John Carter of Mars and Tarzan.

Worst Narration Ever

You have to go in expecting some Eugenic white European colonizing bias given the time period and audience of the piece. Sadly, that is just the product of the time and place. HOWEVER, what I can't understand is how in this MODERN RECORDING no one either noticed or cared to inform the narrator how to pronounce the name Job. You know, like the book in the Bible. For hours, you get to hear him call the character job, like going to work. This probably could be ignored, but you get hours of this. So distracting.

dated classic & some mind boggling misprounciation
