Students at a small college in Southern California program their supercomputer to learn language, but the school is adjacent to an aquatic amusement park and the computer mistakenly learns to communicate with the world's dolphin population. The dolphins ultimately reveal explosive information about the true origins of mankind, which falls into the wrong hands and sets off a chain of events that threatens to unravel society as we know it.©1998 Richard G.

The story was interesting, but the narration awful. It sounded like someone reading a fairystory for children, and I couldn't help wondering why everybody seemed to have either a welsh or cockney accent. The music and sound effect wiped out the narration in places. Can't understand the choice of Narrator.

Awful Narration

British accents for characters in California detracted from narrative. Dramatisation poorly executed. Chapter interludes unnecessary.

Dramatisation misses the mark

Just OK

I picked this one up based on the story blurb. What a horrible, horrible narration. A british narrator narrating an american novel? Eekk.. Sound effects worse than any video game? Double eeek... I could not stand to listen to this one more than fifteen minutes. It grated on my ears.... Listen to the sample first. If you can stand it, then buy...

Awful....
