Review of 'The Island of Doctor Moreau (Unabridged Classics)' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

It’s odd listening to a story that I’ve never read, yet know already. It’s also a little odd how easily this story, written over a century ago remains timely. Swap “gene-therapy” or “DNA-splicing” with “vivisection” and the story could be set now, or in the very near future. I’m very glad I took the time for this one.

Aside from mispronouncing “puma” the reader does a good job, though the sound editor could have been better. The volume is a little up and down.
