About this listen

The original Buck Rogers novella from 1928, narrated by science fiction author Scott Reeves.

Mining engineer Anthony Rogers is trapped by a mine collapse and falls into a state of suspended animation due to the presence of radioactive gases. He awakens nearly five hundred years later, to a United States that has been conquered by the Chinese. Using his 20th-century military knowledge, he helps the down-trodden Americans take back their country.

This unabridged version is only the first 6 chapters of the book.
My husband was really looking forward to hearing this book as it was one of the first books he read, after he learn to read in his early twenties. He has reread this book many, many times and he loves the story. But he is so disappointed in both the choice of the narrator, and the cut in the book. The narrator showed almost total disinterest in the story and it sounds like it was recorded in a cupboard. His copy of the book printed in 1962 has 18 chapters an Epilogue and Afterward. His question is why doesn't this one? This is why he has given it such a bad review, not the fantastic story, just what has been done to it. He is very disappointed, This audio book is not up to Audible's usual high standards.
