    About this audiobook

    Before Adam is a mixture of sound science and sci-fi speculation. It is based around Darwin's theory of evolution and the idea of racial memory.

    The main character lives in the current world but has dreams and nightmares that he relives the pre-stone age life of one of his proto-human ancestors.

      North Dakota is not known for its pigeons. Or forests, for that matter. The state bird is the western meadowlark, a mellifluous yellow songbird often seen singing on fence posts. Such posts substitute for trees in much of North Dakota. The state is p

      Really interesting concept with a strong story but a lot of power was lost due to the whining narration.
      Will have to read the book or find an alternative narration to get a fair opinion but considering the time it was written and what was know it’s a jolly good yarn.
      Three stars reflects weak narration rather than story.
