The enchanted island of Corfu was home to Gerald Durrell and his family for five years before the Second World War. For the passionate young zoologist, Corfu was a natural paradise, teeming with strange birds and beasts that he could collect watch and care for. But life was not without its problems - Gerald’s family often objected to his animal-collecting activities, especially when the beasts wound up in the family’s villa or even worse - the fridge.

Can't wait for the final instalment of the Cofru trilogy!!
The book is advertised as being read by Nigel Davenport, but the download gave me a recording of it by Christopher Timothy. He is still a wonderful reader of the story, but it may be a little surprising when you first begin the story if you're expecting to hear Davenport's voice.
Certainly not a problem overall and I highly recommend this series.

Loved it!

As with the first two books, this one was just as charming, interesting, and educational. My only disappointment was the narration. I much preferred Nigel Davenport. His depiction of the characters was more in keeping with the PBS series.

Wonderful Story

True Durrell at his exquisitely performed by Christopher Timothy. Felt like you were there in the villa with them all.

Fabulous!

This is a wonderful book but my only thing to say is that I wish that the narrator had used a pop filter on the microphone.

Great book

This was my favorite of the trilogy - I rushed to finish, dying of laughter as I did, even laughing out loud with my headphones in at the coffee shop this morning. The Durrell's adventures and misadventures on Corfu were interesting to say the least. Gerald was a kid who loved animals. His older brothers and sister were always inviting an assortment of people to visit. The mother was often at a loss to control the madness. The locals and Gerald's tutors were all unique individuals. You can read or listen to this whether or not you've seen "The Durrels on Corfu" by the BBC. I've seen a couple of episodes and it focuses a little more on the mother than the books.

I was disappointed at first that it was a different narrator than the first 2 books, but after a bit found him to be fantastic. He got everything just right.

I highly recommend all 3 of the trilogy in order.

Great Ending to a Quirky Trilogy

this had the same characters and is funny and interesting facts about the animals

the series called the Durells

Durrell's got a group of wonderful eccentric characters and a family with a dynamic that will make you think your family is sane and forgive your big brother for practicing wrestling holds on you or cheating at Monopoly. He'll also make you want to visit Corfu. I'm not sure that he'll convince you to be a naturalist - it's fun to hear about the animals and the adventures, but I wouldn't want to deal with the messes, the need to get food for carnivores, etc., etc,, and I hope he won't convince you to capture so many animals rather than to leave them in their natural habitat. Durrell's writing is a pleasure, as is Christopher Timothy's narration, though I did like Nigel Davenport's narration of the previous volume better.

Delightful fun

I thought I'd read everything Gerry Durrell had written but these are new. His family was so entertaining anti I doubt his mum intended that. Love Creech , Spiro, Theo and the rest

A revelatory combination of the awe of life that surrounds us and the human comedy within which we experience it. I laughed out loud and learned and grew and added Gerald Durrell to my heroes list.

Durrell"s descriptions make the events, people, and scenery come alive. Colorful, saucy, funny, and informative.

Delightful!
