The story starts as a bit of a slow burn as we get to the titular setting as we first deal with drama of a more grounded nature. Not what I expected from a story about a lost island of dinosaurs but it’s not boring.
I did find myself liking the love interest as she not above verbal putting the hero in his place a few times and doesn’t prove herself to be a load though she doesn’t contribute too much it’s still more then I expected.
I will say this the casual and matter of fact use of several terms or phrases as well as the hero’s attitude to his love interest severe as unfortunate reminders of when this story was written. Not meant in a malicious context but I’m not sure that would amount to much.
The narration is pretty good the guy speaks clearly at a good pace and is easy to follow a one critique however is that early on he’s clearly really close to the mic as you can hear him loudly inhale for breath. Another one is that he’ll suddenly stopped mid sentence probably to turn the page of his script or something.
Fortunately this is less of an issue further into the story but it is really noticeable and distracting.
Despite these flaws I did enjoy the story and plan of checking out the rest of the series at some point. I would recommend if you want some early 20th century science fantasy but as mentioned some dated views may effect enjoyment.
Dated slow burn but enjoyed it
