Beyond Strange Lands is an action-packed and fantastical multi-cast audio drama that journeys across the Australian outback.

In 1982, the famous paranormal expert Grant Peters went missing while filming his TV show Legendary Australia. His wife Melissa was never able to find him. When Melissa herself disappears nearly forty years later, her daughter Fiona and grandson Ethan trace her to the small outback town of Boulia. There they discover a collection of old audio tapes that Melissa left behind: a set of clues they must follow if they're to solve this mystery in time. Insidious forces will stop at nothing to destroy them, and an impossibly ancient menace lurks deep beneath the ground, waiting for the chance to strike....

Hammed up fun. Ghosts, giant toads evil monsters possessed people. Easy listening. Not class drama.

Silly Romp

It's fun. It's free. I gave up listening on headphones about halfway through as it didn't add anything after a while but it's worthwhile starting in stereo. There is some wonderfully hammy acting just to add to the atmosphere. Shades of The Mummy crossed with Scooby Do.

B movie hokum

for everyone who said the sound quality is terrible, they obviously didn't listen with headphones. it's made to he listened to with headphones and then quality is brilliant.
I enjoyed the story, found it intriguing, I liked the characters.
would love to hear a second season

need to listen with headphones

I'm a bit of an agnostic about Dr. Who, but this weaves in the best bits of that, with HPL and the more nutty scifi themes.

If you like HPL you will love this.

I have enjoyed this story immensely. The sound work and performances were excellent and made me want to be present in the recording studio at the time of production because they sounded so well scripted and executed.
The story at times went a little over my head because it was so very intense and complex but I understood it and enjoyed it throughout.
I highly recommend this free Audible Original.

Brilliant, great story good acting. Really gets you into the minds of the characters. For those complaining about the sound. Buy better earphones. Perfectly good sound recording.

I don't know what some of the reviewers' problem was with the audio. I listened on ordinary headphones and everything was perfectly clear. Indeed, the sound effects were great. The storytelling is fun, definitely owing a lot to Dr Who in its style. Don't expect deep and complex ideas, but it's entertaining (and free!).

Enjoyable listen

It took me a little while to get into this but, once I did I really enjoyed it. It's a bit like a Doctor Who story but with Aussies.

Easy listening and fun. Don't expect this to be like any other podcast or book you've heard. I would recommend it but tell you stick with it, it will be worth it.

Good, just different!
