In this fully dramatized, live performance of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic, The Lost World, Leonard Nimoy, John de Lancie, and cast members from Star Trek® feature films and all four TV series take you on an incredible journey.

This review is in reference to the "Alien Voices" CD audio presentation of the "Lost World" by Sir Athur Conan Doyle. The adaptation by Alien voices was excellent. The voices of Star Treks' John de Lancie and Leonard Nimoy were remarkable. These two readers along with a powerful orchestra accompaniment provide a thrilling and engaging rendition of this classic. Very satisfying indeed.

The only qualm I have is the reworking of the plot and characters. I think that the plot reworking made the story easier to tell but not to listen. There were many events that would not have made sense to me unless I had previously read the work.

Over all a decent script of a superb classic with a wonderfully choreographed production.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great production sets a new standard, June 10, 1998

Last night I curled up with my 5 month old son to listen to the much anticipated audio novel "The Lost World". I was not disappointed. I would like to thank Lenard Nimoy, John Delancy and the rest of the team for bringing this novel to life. I thoroughly enjoyed the superior production even though the story itself was kind of convaluted (hard to follow). I look forward to more audio drama's from your team.

5.0 out of 5 stars For those interested...., December 14, 2011
