beautiful

This book was just beautiful. The readers voices are suited exactly for the book. The plot is interesting to say the least. I actually switched from a different recording of this book to this one part of the way through and the narraters voice had me hooked. I listened to basically three words and I said "this is it"
What a breath of fresh air! Love it STILLððð

Good story, great narration. Voice acting was of varying quality, none of it equal to the narrator.

I can't believe that Tip escaped from Mombi.

My hat is off to this wonderful group of voice actors and a double bow to the editor that pasted all of these voices together. Extremely well done!
