Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Scott Brick delivers a powerhouse performance in Hollywood Animal, his voice perfectly mirroring the intensity of Joe Eszterhas' life and work. The pacing is impeccable, with Brick seamlessly transitioning between Eszterhas’ youthful adventures and his rise to fame. While the audiobook excels at recounting the most dramatic moments, some sections detailing less action-packed areas could benefit from more nuance. Nevertheless, this is a compelling listen that offers unique insights into one of Hollywood’s most dynamic figures.
