Narrator Wil Tabares was amazing! This was a lively performance including music, sound effects, & character voices that sounded natural and believable. The Mexican and Spanish names are pronounced naturally, without ever interrupting the flow of storytelling in English.

The book is in two parts: Part one is about the history of the legend. The storytelling happens in Part two. I personally was interested in the historu of the legend; but if you aren't, you can skip to Part two and be fine.

What has the narrator got against character?

in this & the previous Wild book, narrator uses a grating, nails-on-chalkboard voice for Hester. Almost all the characters are from New Jersey, yet she's the only one given the accent. I absolutely cringed every time the natrator did Hester. It sounded like Richard Dreyfuss imitates Andy Rooney imitating a valley girl imitating an over-excited Snookie from Jersey Shore. If a real person talked like that, you'd walk away, refuse to let them speak.
What grudge has the narrator have against the character of Hester?

I bought this book to read about the amazing Resistance heroine Catherine Dior. instead, the book was a "harlequin romance" about two sisters finding love against the backdrop of occupied Paris. Catherine Dior's only presence in the book was as a foil for the two sisters' adventures. Dior was simply a shadow figure the sisters and other characters did things for. After listening to the book, I'm not even sure whether the book's characters -- apart from Christian and Catherine Dior -- were real or make-believe. If you want a wartime romance novel about "how two sisters found their man," this is it. If you want to learn about Catherine Dior's brave resistance against the Nazis, look elsewhere,
