About this listen
Jaws is the classic blockbuster thriller that inspired the three-time Academy Award-winning Steven Spielberg movie and made millions of beachgoers afraid to go into the water. Experience the thrill of helpless horror again—or for the first time!
Jaws was number 48 in the American Film Institute's 100 Years...100 Movies, and the film earned the coveted number-one spot on the Bravo network's 100 Scariest Movie Moments countdown.
This timeless tale of man-eating terror that spawned a movie franchise, two video games, a Universal Studios theme park attraction, and two musicals is finally available on audio for the first time ever!

The movie fan. Now the book fan too.
Erik Steele did a great job narrating this book and was very engaging. If you're a fan of the movie, you'll be a fan of the book too.
The movie isn't an exact replica of the book, but the main elements of the movie are here in the book.

Great characterisation by the narrator. Well paced and held the tension well. Very happy listening all the way through.

great read I thoroughly enjoyed it
excellent story with great suspense, the book makes the movie look and sound tame, the added story elements involving the mayor and Ellen Brodys tryst with Matt Hopper gave the story more volume

Good Read
Can definitely see why it turned into the first blockbuster movie but shocking how much the movie deviated from the book, a movie fan must read

Better than movie
I read this decades ago and was interested to see if I still enjoyed the story especially in light of some of the Audible reviews... Although a WOKE author today would not express the misogyny and other politically incorrect storytelling and characters... I believe they still run true of current American privalaged small town attitudes ... Never been a fan of Speilberg I find him usually too sacherin and one dimensional for my taste... soo I enjoyed the 'sharks perspective ' rather than just the monster from the movie..I enjoyed the sleazy furtive gropings of the sex and the characters mindsets. and politics... definitely worth a listen in my opinion

JAWS as you don’t remember it from the movie
Such an enjoyable listen that brings elements of the book alive from the movie and a lot of juicy bits that you don’t see in the movie.

Classic but Dated
A great book, if you ignore the weirdly sexual sub-plot and odd use of words here and there. Skip chapter 8 if you don't want to be cringing the whole time. Otherwise an excellent reading by Erik Steele who I don't envy for having to read some of these gross sentences out loud. I would suggest if you are interested in the main plot of a man-eating shark, watch the movie, just trust me.
