Review – Uncharted: The Official Movie Novelization by S. D. Perry, read by Nolan North
The official novelization of the Uncharted movie is an absolute blast in audible format, narrated by the one and only Nolan North, the famous treasure hunter, infamous thief, and orphan Nathan Drake himself!
As you well know, I love the Uncharted series of PlayStation exclusive video games. I dare to say that these adventures will always remain in my top five franchises of all time. Although Nathan Drake is clearly inspired by iconic characters such as Dr. Jones from Indiana Jones and Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, he can stand tall between the two, with his head raised and that cocky smile upon his face.
S. D. Perry has written a classic Uncharted tale! The author treats all the characters with the respect they deserve and the novel reads like the epic adventure these beloved characters live. As always, there’s a treasure, there are bad guys, there are a lot of fights, secret mysteries to unravel and also Nathan‘s search for his brother.
The writing is good, the action moves fast and it’s clear that we are in for a roller coaster of unfortunate events right from the start, when Drake wakes up hanging upside down from a plane. Nolan North is the only voice actor who could have pulled this one off and he does it with style!
The narration is excellent, the voice acting is full of enthusiasm, humor and life, while all the already trademarked sentences will be there at every step to bring a knowing smile upon the listeners’ lips.
Nathan Drake is only one and his voice is Nolan North, although most probably the movie will not impress too many fans, I think that this audiobook will satisfy our need for a new adventure in the Uncharted universe, and maybe, who knows, a fast-paced and entertaining series of novels.
