    Loved the original version when I was a kid in the 70’s and love this new version. Well done to the whole team that worked on this. The cast was magnificent well done. Don’t expect it to be like the old album, just listen to it with new ears. You will not be disappointed.

    This audio book, a 5+ hours derivative of Jeff Wayne's rock opera, is a must for the aficionados. I listened to it once, and I'm listening to it again, now after having listened to original H.G. Well's book in one of the many renditions available at Audible.

      The thing is, the changes he makes are actually good! Unlike most people he improves on it. This 5 hour and maybe a half long audio drama brings everything I love about the musical and the book into one, it's great IMO.

      I don't see why not. If you've read the book you notice shit-tons of references in there to the Musical version rather than just the previous book, such as character's names alluding to the original actors.

    i just realised taron ended up being in involved with the audiobook for war of the worlds and jeff wayne did the album for the musical many years ago which he actually chose to do instead of writing with elton john and taron is now playing THE elton john in a movie. CRAAAAZY.

      He probably did not have a well aligned work schedule. Neil Gaiman himself mentions that it’s very difficult to get all the big name actors to align perfectly with a unified schedule for his own projects.
