King Solomon's Mines
From Glenn Shepherd of Travelers Rest, South Carolina on .
This was a great adventure story.
The voices of the different characters were performed splendidly.
XLNT narration
From Anonymous of Grantsvile, Utah on .
Bloodier than expected, the narration as usual is perfectly done by BJ. It is THE precursor to Alan Quartermain.
Excellent Adventure
From Cindy Calafaty of Knob Noster, Missouri on .
The story is classic, the performance exceptional. An excellent adventure from an era we will never replicate.
So well read
From Marc Moshman of Silver Spring, Maryland on .
Finding a treasure of ancient origin, of fantastic proportion, is a dream of many. Usually, aging relegates the dreams to dark corners that rarely receive light. But for some, these dreams are acted on, even today. This is the story of three men who acted on this dream for varying motives, and the story is captivating and extremely well read.
A terrific adventure (albeit dated)
From Andrew of Walnut Creek, California on .
This is a terrific adventure story, complete with physical hardships, wild animals, war, intrigue, hidden treasure, and even a bit of a forbidden love story. All is read with amazing skill and clarity by Mr. Harrison, as usual and wonderful. One needs to consider the era when encountering some blatantly racist and sexist attitudes expressed in the book, but it is not as bad as it might have been on that score.
Overall, I find it quite riveting and a pleasure to hear the story.
Make a long car journey very short :-)
From Jonathan Rodwell of St. Albans, United Kingdom on .
Simply another BJ Classic - What more can I say?
A facinating adventure story
From RogerL of debary, Florida on .
I was fascinated with the book, "She" when I was a kid. King Solomon's Mines" was similar in many ways. It was not a big surprise when I saw that it was the same author.
BJ's narration is a work of art.
Outstanding!
From Ronnie Greher of Liverpool, New York on .
Another wonderful adventure, courtesy of BJ. I truly felt as if the characters were acting out a play in front of my eyes. I can't say enough what a value this is. Forget the traditional audiobook stores. BJ is your go to place for spoken word production. Thank you for all of your tireless efforts BJ.
Excellent!
From Patrick McBride of Indianapolis, Indiana on .
Another great read - fun adventure novel.
King Solomon's Mines: Crazy Good!!
From Jeff Wilson of Humble, Texas on .
Hands down, the best book the I never read! BJ has literally outdone himself with this latest title. This is one of the many books that I've enjoyed thanks to the extraordinary storytelling and amazing character voice creations that cannot be found elsewhere. BJ's ability to bring the characters to life and tell the story in such a way that makes me take the long way home just to hear more of the recording. Think of it like when a modern singer takes an old, forgotten song and breathes new life into it...making it a sensation like never before. Really, this is the good stuff!
Excellent
From Anonymous of Bethesda, Maryland on .
I truly enjoyed this title, being a sucker for adventure stories. Well read.
The Best!
From Keith McRae of Rocklin, California on .
You spend a lot of time driving and BJ's Audiobooks are a fantastic diversion. His podcast is heads and tails above the competition.
Solomon's Mines Reading a Gem
From Mark Pavlin of Kingsport, Tennessee on .
This reading is a gem! BJH takes on the challenge of impersonating voices as different as an English gentleman and an African witch in a believable and entertaining way. Nothing distracts from becoming absorded in a classic adventure yarn, a superb job!
BJ Harrison
From Dan Riordan of Sierra Vista, Arizona on .
BJ is an artist who has perfected his craft delivering the classics in exemplary 21st Century fashion. I'm an avid podcaster and audio book connoisseur placing BJ Harrison at the very top of his profession. I just finished chapter 12 and give this audiobook a 5 star plus! Thanks BJ.
10 STARS
From FRANK ROGERS of laredo, Texas on .
BJ, thank you for opening my ears to Classic Tales that I would never experience. King Solomon's Mines, GREAT JOB!!!!!!
King Solomon's Mines
From John L of Markham, Ontario on .
Listning to King Solomon's mines by Rider Haggard felt at times a lot like The Lost World by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It's clear that Doyle was influenced by Haggard. This is one of those audio books that can be listened to over and over again. The descriptions of the landscape and people are incredible.
