### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A+ book, stay away from the single CD "audio book"!
  

*by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2016*

The book requires two reads.  after the first read you can go back and with the knowledge gained from the back half of the book more completely soak in all of the knowledge from the first half.  It's amazing how on a second read, all of the details stand out as having a significance well beyond their letters and words.BUT! Be warned: The CD currently listed here is NOT an audio book.  It has a run time of just over an hour!  It was just some episode on a talk radio show about the book.  Steer clear from the single CD "Audio Book" currently listed as one of the options on the product page.  The book is the real deal.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Heavily abridged & short
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2013*

I got part way through this CD and I started thinking of all the stuff, good and bad, that I wanted to say on amazon about this novel on CD.  Then I realized that this was a heavily abridged if attractive multi-voice production, and my review wouldn't make much sense.  I'll save my extended review for an unabridged CD version, if such exists.  As it is, this is one really pricey selection for maybe 2 to 3 hours of listening.Heavy spoiler alert going forward.  So what to say here?  I don't know how much this CD is going to make sense to somebody who hasn't read the book.  It's a nice reminder to those of us who read the actual, considerably lengthier novel 30+ years ago.  Part mystery novel about the author - what did he do to get his brain zapped so long ago - how did he recover from that - what happened to his family in the meantime?  Part story of father/son issues.  Part philosophical discussion (the part I like least).  On the one hand I'd like to say that this man's past sacrificed for his message to the rest of us.  But a larger part of me says this guy is bonkers regardless of the message.  Maybe both are right.  I find a lot of the philosophical stuff mumbo jumbo.  I find a lot else objectionable in the actual book, but it is memorable and thought-provoking just the same.  I had no trouble remembering specific incidents from this book which I read 1978-ish in confirming how abridged this CD was, which says something about something.  So at the minimum it's memorable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Worth the read, it makes you think.
  

*by C***. on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2016*

It was an interesting perspective on life and how one lives.  It took a bit of getting used to the multi voice and sound effects when you are used to one reader, just reading the book.  It kind of reminded me of a radio program of yesteryear. Worth the read, it makes you think.
