Kevin Sorbo Books

I loved getting to know Sorbo and Hurst. They do a splendid job. I am a fan of the show, so this was something I created for pure fun (and charity). I will be re-releasing this project next year with HUDSON LEICK reading the final chapter! It will also include Sorbo's hilarious outtakes!
All in all this is fun for the entire family and educational as well. I am always happy to answer emails regarding the project. Enjoy, Craig Braginsky (Owner, BMP,Ltd.)

An excellent listening of the exploits of Hercules. Kevin Sorbo does a great job reading, but Michael Hurst, who reads the second side, is by far the BEST reader I've ever had the pleasure to listen to!! His Shakespearean training shines through and I would buy anything he reads...a definate MUST for any fan of the series or the legend.

Great tape for kids and grownups alike, well-written story too. My only complaint is that it's not long enough to get my fill of sexy Kevin Sorbo's deep rich voice!

This tape is great fun to listen to, especially, if you are a "Hercules: The Legendary Journeys" Fan. My advice: take the tape recorder, dimm the lights, sit back and relax!

Sorbo's reading on Side A is extremely convincing and he could easily charm you or your kids to sleep. But Michael Hurst's voice and enthusiasm on Side B revives you, captures you and won't let go of your imagination until the tape is finished. It's as if you can almost see him in that recording studio, fighting invisible lions while turning the pages of the book.

However, if you think the Enchanted Tales are connected to H:TLJ, you will be disappointed. The story is the classic tale of his 7 labours and for all you Iolausians out there, Iolaus is not Iolaus, but Iole, a young girl. Also the tape is not very long and Side A is only half-played and you are being asked to forwind to the end.

Overall, two enthusiastic thumbs up for Michael Hurst and Kevin Sorbo! With those reading abilities, they can babysit my kids any day!

I bought this cassette through Amazon.com a couple months ago (originally it was going to be a gift!)and have to say it has been a truly enjoyable experience! The buying and the listening! Sorbo and Hurst are fantastic. Kevin's deeply sincere tone is captivating and Michael, on Side B, uses his "Iolaus" accent (American) to read with great enthusiasm, like a master story teller. His segment on the Nemean Lion should NOT be missed by anyone who enjoys listening about Hercules and his labors. By the way, even if you're not interested (in Greek mythology [stories]) these actors and their wonderful voices will MAKE you change your mind. Okay ... so when's the next tape coming out???

If you are not familiar with Kevin Sorbo,then this book is perfect for you as it provides a great introduction not only to the character,but to the man behind the character. If you're a Sorbo fan, then this book is an absolute must for your collection! Has great photos as well-you will really enjoy this peek into the world of this very popular actor!
