      Piggy was the same as Jack he just wasn’t in a position where he was in power anymore. He was a man completely molded by society and when taken out of it couldn’t do anything. Still when he used Ralph’s ability he used it to try and oust Jack. Piggy got what he deserves. Simon deserved better though.

    Imagine how much faster they would've gotten rescued if Jack took his head out of his ass and they all kept a fire like they were supposed to. It boggles my mind that Jack let's the fire go out earlier in the book, and then still has the audacity to get mad and think he is right and knows what he is doing. I also find it funny that Jack is the one to start the fire that's saved them, tho it was unintentional.

      It's as though Simon knew too much about the island. Like it had a curse. Almost like the island had its own plans for Simon. An entity of mystery and misery beyong human comprehension. The background music near the end helps create the vision with the emotion it conveys. We're reading this in class and soon a test I'm sure.

    O-M-G! I'm devastated! Gosh! This such a brilliant novelisation which has clearly sent me to shock. And I can't thank you enough for making the novel so lively! The audio visuals, the reading, the speech patterns - everything was on point. It made me feel as though I were there, on that strange island. Awesome work, guys! Thank you so much!!

    I am reading this book for my English class. At first I found it really boring and couldn't stand it. I am not much of a reader and go out of my way to avoid it by using SparkNotes or something like that. However I eventually found these audio books and they really kept me enticed and really threw me into the world with the sound effects and music tracks used. I felt like the book had come to life. I found myself wanting more. I read ahead and honestly I fell in love with the story. I just finished reading and the emotion I feel is heart wrenching. My heart feels heavy and I can really sympathize for these kids. This is one of the first times a book has made me feel anything. You did a phenomenal job with this and I really can't thank you enough. You not only sparked my interest in this book but you also have me wanting to read more because of it. I can see from the comments that you have done the same for others. You should be really proud :)

    When I started this book, I thought that it was going to be horrible. However, I am pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Also, I think that your music throughout definitely helped with the immersion and feeling of the book. Thanks for the audiobook!

    As a reader with ADHD, this was such a good read! Your voice and the sound effects and music make it soo much more engaging and scary at times. Thank you for making these, it helped out so many people besides myself. 100%.
    (Also, Simon’s death and when the Lord of The Flies starts speaking absolutely BLEW my class away the first time we read it! Even my teacher was shocked, and a little freaked out 😅!)

    I just finished the book while listening to this audiobook for high school and oh my, his really helped create pictures of scenes in my head and connection the dots in this book. Also, the sound effects and accents performed add a whole new level. The ending turned out to be a little emotional for me because of you. Thank you!

    Wow, that's all I can say. The anticipation and emotion of the whole book was incredible. The sound effects made the story ten times better, there were so many parts that made my heart pound so fast. The story was written so beautifully, the detail and descriptions were amazing. Congrats for the author and the narrator! That was incredible!

    The part that took me most by surprise, was at the end of the book, when it talked about how jack started so sob. He even started to loudly cry before any of the little’uns.
    I mean, Jack puts on this big appearance that he’s some big tough guy. But what if Jack wanted to home the whole time and just never said anything.
    I don’t know, it’s just a thought. 💭

    Thank you so much for this reading! I am about to start this book with my 10th graders during the COVID-19 shut down,, and some of them are struggling readers. The audiobook version that's read by the author is not engaging at all, but you've done such a great job. I know this will help my students a lot!!!

    thank you so much for creating this audiobook series. i have ADHD and it’s hard for me to focus on something for a long period of time and the book my mother had purchased had small lettering so i could barely focus on it. your voice acting in this audiobook and the sound effects you included allowed me to really think about everything that was happening and let me watch the book in my head. this audiobook has helped me tremendously for my school work, thank you again!! ❤️

    My Language Arts class just finished the entire audiobook; our teacher has been playing the videos as we've been reading along. I have to say this is an amazing reading, and it's been a really great way to immerse us. I, in particular, definitely feel that I wouldn't be able to analyze the book nearly as well if I hadn't heard it happening as I'd read through it.
