Excellent Narration

Totally enjoyed and look forward to the next one. Narration was top quality. So glad I listened and didn’t just watch the movie.

Travis Wren has an unusual talent for locating missing people. Often hired by families as a last resort, he takes on the case of Maggie St. James—a well-known author of dark, macabre children’s books—and is soon led to a place many believed to be only a legend. Called Pastoral, this reclusive community was founded in the 1970s by like-minded people searching for a simpler way of life. By all accounts, the commune shouldn’t exist anymore and soon after Travis stumbles upon it…he disappears. Just like Maggie St. James.

Great story, poor narrations.

The story itself is great. I enjoyed Shea Ernshaw’s first two books and even preordered A History of Wild Places on Audible. Despite this novel being her first foray out of the YA genre, she knocked it out of the park. I’ve come to expect engrossing, atmospheric reads from Ernshaw and I was not disappointed in the slightest.
My problem with the Audible recording of A History of Wild Places in that some of the narration was absolutely terrible. There are multiple narrators for the different characters’ POVs. The narrators for Theo and Calla were some of the worst I’ve ever heard. Theo’s narrator sounded like a robot. Siri honestly sounds more lifelike and has more tone variation than this particular narrator.
The narrator for Calla whispered so quietly that I could barely hear her even when using headphones. It was even worse when the Calla’s narrator tried to read lines spoken by male characters. Not only were the lines whispered, but the pretend male voice did not sound good and she would add in a random accent here and there and then drop it suddenly.
I listened to half the audiobook but then switched to a physical copy because I couldn’t continue listening to Theo and Calla’s narrators.

Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 48
A white-knuckle crime debut introducing DI Meg Dalton, perfect for fans of Broadchurch and Happy Valley. A lawyer is found dead in a Peak District cave, his face ribboned with scratches. Amidst rumours of a local curse, DI Meg Dalton is convinced this is cold-blooded murder. There's just one catch - chiselled into the cave wall above the body is an image of the grim reaper and the dead man's initials, and it's been there for over a century.

Revisado: 04-27-18
The ridiculous portrayals of Christians in this book is beyond acceptable. “Nutters” It just droned on and on about how unintelligent and insane Christians are. Story line could have been wrapped up a lot faster. Could have just said, “I want to bash God and Christians for hours” and let it be.

The debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at other people's lives. Every day the same. Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She’s even started to feel like she knows them. Jess and Jason, she calls them. Their life - as she sees it - is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.

Way too slow of a start....

Seemed to drone on and on. About midway through it finally picked up but only the last chapters were of thriller level.
