About this listen

Ben Cartwright, former soldier, home to mourn the loss of his father stumbles upon cryptic letters from the past between author, Arthur Conan Doyle and his great, great grandfather who vanished while exploring the Amazon jungle in 1908. Amazingly, these letters lead Ben to believe that his ancestor’s expedition was the basis for Doyle’s fantastical tale of a lost world inhabited by long extinct creatures. As Ben digs some more he finds clues to the whereabouts of a lost notebook that might contain a map to a place that is home to creatures that would rewrite everything known about history, biology and evolution. But other parties now know about the notebook, and will do anything to obtain it. For Ben and his friends, it becomes a race against time and against ruthless rivals. In the remotest corners of the Venezuela, along winding river trails known only to lost tribes, and through near impenetrable jungle, Ben and his novice team find a forbidden place more terrifying and dangerous than anything they could ever have imagined.©2017 Greig Beck (P)2018 Bolinda Publishing Adventure Science Fiction Fiction

Predictable but still worthy.

Think Jumanji with graphic death.
A decent take on an old tale.
Let's see what the next book holds.

Looking forward to number II :)

Great adventure storytelling and Sean Mangen is doing his gravelly best to tell it. I'm sure he could read a shopping list and make it sound menacing and mysterious. I wish this could be made into a movie!

seriously fantactical adventure

Yet again Greig outdone himself...what a great adventure these friends thought they'd have...probly something I'd do with as much (or as little) thought as they did. Unfortunatly the narration was below average...i think Sean has lost his touch...his magic voice...this is the second new release book I've listened to and both books were let down by Seans lack lustre efforts..😔

A must for adventurists

I enjoyed reading this book. It reminded me of my childhood, being swept away in the adventure of Jules Verne & Journey to the Centre of the Earth, as well as the modern Jerassic Park dinosaur fun & mayhem.

The loose historical themes & the prehistoric elements made this a fun adventure to escape into. About to read the next in the series now, it got me hooked.

Hooked - will need to read the series now!

Enjoyed the book. found it a little slow to start as it built the story line but wasn't until about 1/2 way through until it started to get exciting. Will probably find myself feel the need to read the next 2 in the series. Sean Mangan also reads for Matthew Reilly, so both authors feel like they have a similar writing style, So if you are looking for another author with similar action, try Matthew Reilly
