Okay so I'm not usually big on audiobooks but a friend insisted I try this. Three chapters in and I was completely sold. Dr. Nikola’s Experiment is genuinely well-made — the content, the pacing, all of it.
Found this on Unodio and wasn't expecting much. Two hours later I was still going. Guy Boothby doesn't waste your time with filler — every chapter earns its place.
I've been listening during my evening walks and Dr. Nikola’s Experiment has been the highlight of my week honestly. There's a section in the middle where it all just comes together — gave me chills.
What I appreciate most is that Guy Boothby doesn't talk down to you. The ideas are complex but explained in a way that respects your intelligence. Really rare.
