I knew going into it that not everything would be able to be translated audibly since so much of the book is visual. If anything, I'm incredibly impressed that they were able to make the audio just as amazing as the book since they used effects that the physical book doesn't have.

It was an amazing experience to listen back to the full finished audiobook. They did such a good job. Very creepy at times, funny, scary, and lots in-between. Sorry I arrived late here to the party, but thanks again, and glad you liked it!

I haven’t read Illuminae, but I plan to listen to the audiobook. I find you comment about "video footage" very interesting. You ended up disappointed because you had expectations, it happens with me every time I listen to the audiobook after I’ve read the book. It’s one of the reasons I prefer to go for the audiobook, rather than to listen to it after reading the book.
