Story
First came the man: a young wanderer in a fatigue coat and long hair. Then came the legend, as John Rambo sprang from the pages of FIRST BLOOD to take his place in the American cultural landscape. This remarkable novel pits a young Vietnam veteran against a small-town cop who doesn't know whom he's dealing with - or how far Rambo will take him into a life-and-death struggle through the woods, hills, and caves of rural Kentucky.

Story
The Great Game between Victorian Britain and Tsarist Russia was fought across desolate terrain from the Caucasus to China, over the lonely passes of the Parmirs and Karakorams, in the blazing Kerman and Helmund deserts, and through the caravan towns of the old Silk Road - both powers scrambling to control access to the riches of India and the East. When play first began, the frontiers of Russia and British India lay 2000 miles apart; by the end, this distance had shrunk to 20 miles at some points.

One of the best short stories - ever!
I remember reading this many years ago. Always curious to see if perceptions change over 35+ years, I gave this one another try. I can report here that it is as good now as then!
Harrison does a good job narrating the story, so don't let the new format put you off.
For the price, you can't go wrong having this in your library.

Not bad
The story itself is quite nice and well written, if slightly dated. Or perhaps you need to be younger to appreciate the story and ignore the fact that a lot of it has become cliche ("A mysterious island, shrouded in fear, evil, and darkness" etc.)
As for the narrator, I must say I didn't care for his performance. It's not that he does anything "wrong": his voice is pleasant, his diction is flawless. But to my taste it was overacted. Mr. Harrison simply expresses too much emotion in his narration. As always, this is a matter of taste, but that's what I thought.
All in all, well worth getting, especially for this price.

A most thrilling classic masterpiece!
Would you consider the audio edition of The Most Dangerous Game to be better than the print version?
Hummm. No. Just as good.
What other book might you compare The Most Dangerous Game to and why?
This is vintage perfection written for the discerning mind. Publisher's Weekly probably would reject it as "old fashioned" because it doesn't begin with a chase scene, or something. You want new fashion? Go see Star Trek. You want perfection like Doyle, Wells, Kipling, or Verne, this is your ticket to satisfaction! It will knock your socks off and make your head spin like no other story.
What about B. J. Harrison’s performance did you like?
Excellent. None better.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
...in the tree.
Any additional comments?
Worth every cent, every minute devoted.

A TRUE COSMOPOLITE
YOU HAVE SOME WONDERFUL HEADS HERE
This is one of the stories, that is so popular, that you have seen a version or two of it. Not all versions are the same. I know I saw this on Alfred Hitchcock and then Star Trek has done several versions, etc. Even so, it still has a trick or two up it's sleeve and you may be surprised in how it ends. It is well written and is worth one hour of your time. Harrison does a lot of these older works and he is good.

Great story in an awful production
I'm not going to spend much time rating one of the greatest adventure stories ever written. I'll focus instead on BJ Harrison's production. Harrison is a fine narrator but he needs to find himself a decent audio engineer. I don't enjoy hearing a narrator's lip pops and clicks, and this recording is rife with them. As someone who produces audio and video content, I can say that these issues are relatively easy to fix using a gate audio filter. I love this story but cannot recommend this audio program.

Life is a game
And those that play must play according to the rules. I read this because it is alluded to in the allegory The Catcher In The Rye by J. D. Salinger. I believe this is alluded to both in the vehicle that DB drives and Holden talking to his history teacher Mr Spencer. I also think the black panther is a very interesting illusion... mentioned in James Joyce Ulysses.
The narrator was both informative and excellent performance! Thank you!

Horror fiction needs General Zaroff
The hero of this tale, Sanger Rainsford, is a professional hunter renowned for hunting snow leopards in Tibet. In view of this you may find your sympathies for him instantly wane, but this is worth sticking with as this story of his plight at the hands of the evil General Zaroff is tightly written and genuinely gripping. Films like The Hunger Games and characters like Hannibal Lecter owe a great debt to the portrayal of General Zaroff as a cultured psychopath who believes he is above the rest of humanity and commands every scene he appears in. The narrator has a very cosy voice, probably not best suited to this material, but he makes a good fist of delivering a sound theatrical performance.
