APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Hunker down with some real-life stories about the secrets nature reveals to those who wander the wild. Broadcaster and author Steven Rinella, master of the multimedia MeatEater empire, dedicates his life to hunting in the great American outdoors and sharing what he’s learned with as many people as possible. That includes his Campfire Stories audiobook series. This installment focuses on the amazing things hunters find when they least expect it. We hear about a man in the mountains of Idaho discovering the remains of a bowhunter who disappeared decades ago. A fisherman finds the skeleton of an extinct species of animal above a Texas creek. Things turn outrageous in South Arkansas when turkey season and tornado season overlap. All the stories are narrated by the hunters and fishermen who lived them—no polished delivery or artificial drama, just the real deal. That immediacy puts you right in the moment with them. And Rinella slips a few tales of his own into his introductions. Frightening and funny, shocking and inspiring, these stories could be the soundtrack to your own wilderness journey or just make you feel like you’re on one.
Customer Reviews
5 Star!
Don’t listen to the negatives, 5 hours of entertaining story’s told by the ones who experience it is worth the purchase in my book.
Was not impressed
The first two books were great this was a major flop. A few stories I liked others were hard to listen to. Additionally all but one or two were either from a meateater employee or someone very close to them.
Save your money and re-listen to the first 2
First two campfire stories were great this is meh at best. My buddy and I were excited to list to this on our annual trip out west and it started putting us to sleep.
