4.0 out of 5 stars Truly unique, Nov 5 2008

This review is from: Stargate Atlantis: Perchance to Dream (Audio CD)
Our family is a big fan of Stargate Atlantis and when we spotted the CD being advertised at Amazon.ca, we jumped at the chance to try it. We have bought most of the Stargate Atlantis novels and this seemed to be a perfect follow up.

The actor, Paul McGillion, who portrayed Dr. Carson Beckett on Stargate Atlantis tv series, is the main voice on this audio book. His ability to switch back and forth between his regular voice and Scottish accent is amazing (listen to his interview afterwards).

If you are suffering from "Dr. Beckett withdrawal" (his character died in Season 4), then this is definitely a real treat.

For those of you that are hard of hearing or worried about not being able to follow the story, you can obtain a transcript by contacting the company that produced the CD (www.bigfinish.com).

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting, Dec 31 2008
By KatiKat - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stargate Atlantis: Perchance to Dream (Audio CD)
A very good book with an interesting plot: a sleeping sickness is spreading through Atlantis and only Dr. Beckett can help. Though I have to give it four stars because in places, the background music was so loud that Paul McGillion's reading was barely understandable and the sound during the final interview with Paul was really bad too, it crackled and hissed so it kind of took away the pleasure of listening to it a bit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Carson-centric story, Nov 2 2009

This review is from: Stargate Atlantis: Perchance to Dream (Audio CD)
...But then, I'm partial to Scottish accents. Paul did some great voice acting in this story. The music was suspenseful from beginning to end (which, personally, I would have preferred a slightly more Lantean-style theme to highlight Carson's reflective mood at the end of the story, but that's really my only complaint). And there were some interesting sound effects. I enjoyed the interview with Paul at the end. For those who want a story focusing on their favorite Scottish doctor, yet who want to hear that hot accent rather than simply imagine it, this is a great CD.

4.0 out of 5 stars It has its goods, its bads and its uglies..., May 9 2011
By Shane - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Stargate Atlantis: Perchance to Dream (Audio CD)
Stargate Atlantis: Perchance to dream is written and portrayed as a psychotropic thriller with Dr. Carson Beckett as its center piece. Held within a realm of chaos and confusion, Carson must fight to regain sanity and power over an enemy that uses dreams to feed off its prey. Aided by Atlantis's most powerful team of intergalactic explorers Carson struggles against fantasy and reality as they have blended together in a deadly mixture that threatens the whole expedition.

The goods:
1) Dr. Carson Beckett, the character we have come to know and love, finally gets a significant role within the franchise that doesn't make him look foolish or kills him.
2) The production value is well done, with only a few scenes when the music overwhelms the action.

The bads:
1) The story is good but not great.
2) Paul McGillion does a good job with the reading but in the beginning his vocals seems a little mundane which makes him sound as if he's bored.
3) Paul stays within character even while he reads other characters. Paul portrays a Scotsman on Atlantis but has a natural American accent. While reading Shepard's and other characters lines he stays with the Scottish accent which I thought was a mistake but I see why they did it.

The ugly:
The final interview at the end of the disk is very poor. The sound quality is really bad. The interviewer voice carries well but Paul's voice is extremely loud and in poor quality.

ALL FEEDBACK IS APPRECIATED. THANKS AND GOOD LISTENING.
