Fantastic reflection on time


(5 stars)

Very well reading, amazing!


(4 stars)

well read. the story has been imitated and suppressed so much that little remains remarkable perhaps the date of all pioneering work.

Great Reader


(5 stars)

This was read excellently. As far as the book is concerned, I never cease to marvel at the arrogance of 19th century English. They must always portray themselves as superior - more knowledgeable, more ethical, just better in every way. In The Time Machine, H G Wells goes so far as to suggest that 19th century Brits ate better than all of human history past and future. it boggles the mind.

Fantastic!


(5 stars)

a classic novel, and I very much liked the readers voice and tones, it is very much how I picture the traveler to talk and speak. I've read this book many times, and this time listening to it I felt it deeper, the fear, the sense of curiosity, the caring and the loss.

Loved It


(5 stars)

This was an incredible story, and the reader did a really great job, I definitely recommend!

very interesting story, sad worldview by author.


(4 stars)

The story is very engaging and interesting. Extremely creative. The world view expressed through the story by the author is very sad and demoralizing. We are far more than animals, we are created in the image of God. We have far more purpose than to live and to die.

The Time Machine


(3 stars)

Glad I heard it out to the end, but it wasn’t as enlightening as I had hoped. It was more entertaining than educational. I much prefer Animal Farm and 1984. Those works are tremendously insightful, as well as entertaining to me.

Great recording!


(5 stars)

High quality recording with same reader from start to finish. The book is a scifi classic and although a bit silly at times, still a great piece of imagination.
