Kevin's Watch

Hi All,

I listen to Audiobooks on my Daily commute to work and back home (approximately 1/2 hour each way). My last 5 Audiobooks have been 1st TC Chronicles, and Runes, and FR all read by Scott Brick (no Second Chronicles by Scott, and I understand the others are crap). So, I have his "Frankenstein", Michael Cricthon "Timeline", Dan Brown "The DaVinci Code" and Sue Grafton "P is For Peril" (all gifts). Which should I listen to next? I know Timelne, Kinda, 'cause I've seen part of the Paul walker Movie, and I know The DaVinci Code, Kinda from all the Hype, I know nothing of P is for Peril, aside from what the back says (mystery Story, anyone interested in knowing more can get the description from Amazon, or somewhere else)

So, which should I lsiten to next? I've got about 1 1/2 Discs of fatal Revenant left, and it'll probably last me through Wednesday's drive home.

Thanks for any guidance.... (and feel free to trash anything you think I should leave until last, heh)

Is that the classic Frankenstien or the Dean Koontz one? Timeline is pretty good, never saw the movie, but the book is good. Not his best, but pretty entertaining.

Classic, I believe

I love that book! You should listen to that one next!

So, I went with Frankenstein, it's pretty good, not at all what I expected so far, based upon all the movies.

In the movies, they focus on the building of the monster, and Dr. Frankenstein trying to protect the Monster from the angry Villagers.

In the original Book (currently on Disk 3 of 8 ) apparently the building of the monster is in the background, and the book is more about the moral/ethical dilemma of creating teh monster, and the reprecussions thereof, and starts off with Dr. Frankenstein's family history and his quest for knowledge in the Sciences.

Wait until you get to the monster's point of view narrative! It's so awesome, I think I shall read it again!

I believe that's where I arrived at this morning. The Monster (Who typically doesn't talk in Frankenstein movies) is currently lecturing Victor about his obligations as his creator (Or might that be Volume III )
