Can a 5 hour audiobook cover the entirety of Earth’s history in a comprehensive way? This book certainly tries and succeeds on one level, but of course given its scope and the fact that most of the topics discussed have books in their own right naturally means that it only touches the surface in a many cases. Still, it does succeed in presenting a lot of geological info in a very short framework.

Chock full of information. A bit on the academic/dry side of things.

This was a LITTLE hard to follow but super interesting. Refresh on Pangea/tectonic plates, and then some!
