Audio Book The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon with FREE EASY Reading!

I ordered this novel after reading The Lost City Of The Monkey God: A True Story by Douglas Preston. Several reviewers of Mr. Preston's book referred to The Lost City Of Z as being quite a bit better and more true to what has been regarded as classic archaeology. After reading it I have to agree with those reviewers. This novel is mainly concerned with the exploration of the Amazon region in the early 1900's, with the technology of boat motors, airplanes, and short wave radio just beginning to be utilized. Lost City Of The Monkey God is set in today's time and the explorers have new and up-to-date technology available to help them locate and analyze the ruins that they were searching for.However, Douglas Preston's story feels more 'human' and draws you in from the descriptions of the various obstacles encountered and (sometimes) overcome. His first person descriptions of what he and his team went through take you right into the heart of their group. You encounter the rain, insects, snakes, diseases, and other hardships that they experience. It feels personal, actually uncomfortably personal, making it too easy to put yourself in their shoes and put their pain and discomfort on your own shoulders. Reading The Lost City Of Z was like watching a National Geographic special. Reading The Lost City Of The Monkey God was like watching (and experiencing) the difficulties constantly encountered by participants on the TV show Naked and Afraid.It took me a while to get into the rhythm of The Lost City Of Z because of the shifting perspectives and time frames. David Grann obviously did a lot of research and utilized many different resources in order to compile a lot of factual and interesting information pertinent to the travails of Percy Fawcett while searching for his 'holy grail'. Colonel Fawcett is to be commended for his drive, intelligence, and physical abilities in being able to challenge such difficult conditions over and over again. His accomplishments in helping to map previously unexplored regions are surprising and extremely admirable considering the myriad obstacles encountered.Unfortunately, while each has its place, The Lost City Of Z reads more like a history book while The Lost City Of The Monkey God is a living and breathing adventure. Each to his own.
