In the covers portrays the Bear to have brown fur while in the movie it's black.

Having learned a strategy, Balto lured the grizzly bear onto the frozen ice managing to dispose of the giant in the icy depths of the lake, nearly costing him his own life. Still relentless, the grizzly bear injured Jenna and managed to engage Balto once more. In the fight the giant bear nearly stomps on the trapped baby polar bears and Boris trapped under a tree as the bear stomps its foot towards them.

Hank Azaria reprises his role from the previous film as Bartok, Rasputins former bumbling small albino bat sidekick. The film centres around the kidnapping of the young czar prior to the Russian Revolution. It is a spin-off and Prequel to the 1997 film Anastasia. Had it not been for the arrival of Jenna, Balto would have easily been killed. Bartok the Magnificent is a 1999 American direct-to-video animated adventure comedy film directed by Don Bluth and Gary Goldman. Although smaller and more agile, the wolf-dog was unable to match the bear in combat and was trapped and nearly crushed beneath the bear's huge paw. I'm ready for my next listen to be something both exciting and engaging.During the wolf-dog's journey to find the missing team, a huge, vicious black bear appeared to be stalking the group consisting of Balto, Boris and Muk & Luk for several moments before Balto finally caught scent of the dangerĪ fierce confrontation erupted between the crazed giant and Balto. 3.) Mediocre Narration: I wouldn't call him a "bad" narrator, but his voice often enhanced the boring-ness of the plot. it was honestly uncomfortable enough that I'm not sure if I'll read another of his books. In the past, I've chalked these up to the prejudices of each character (which are unavoidable, of course) but this time it felt like the author's own biases coming through. I heard notes of homophobia, pro-life ranting, and racism. 2.) Too Preachy: the author's conservative biases (which have always been a part of his books) came through quite a bit louder in this novel than I've noticed in others. This one felt like a LOT of maneuvering with a relatively boring payoff in the end. This one was a big disappointment, for a few major reasons: 1.) Weak Plot: most Clancy novels are chess games, with a good portion of the book devoted to maneuvering pieces into place, then pitting them against each other in a big battle at the end (but with lots of technical details and some character work thrown in for good measure). I've been reading Clancy's books for many years, and I always look forward to the next John Ryan book in the series. Pronouncing foreign (non-English) names (different accent !) is not often easy for English readers, but Michael's effort is commendable. There is enough voice modulation and intonation to provide for an enjoyable listening experience. Others, like Scott Brick may read faster and, perhaps, involve themselves more into the story, but I personally am satisfied with Michael's narration. Contrary to several opinions expressed here, I find Michael Pritchard read good. I find Tom Clancy espionage and political stories enjoyable, though I feel more inclined towards Robert Littell, Frederick Forsyth, and John le Carre. There are humorous moments and even a sense of irony !

Since he reads slower than others (an advantage to me !): better focus on the story.ĭid you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? What does Michael Prichard bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Would you consider the audio edition of The Bear and the Dragon to be better than the print version?ĭid the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
