Derek Shetterly is an excellent choice of narrator for this lively nonfiction title about contemporary trends in archaeology. His delivery strikes a balance between academic precision and engaging storytelling, making complex archaeological concepts sound accessible and immediate. There's subtle humor in his tone--just enough to draw listeners into the challenges and wonders of experimental archaeology. Shetterly moves seamlessly between vivid depictions of ancient worlds and reflections on modern discoveries, guiding the listener with clarity and ease as the story spans continents and centuries. Those looking to move beyond mummies will find much to appreciate here. Shetterly's pacing allows room for both awe and amusement, giving the listening experience a rhythm that feels curious, thoughtful, and quietly daring.
