Historia
The Wizard's Council of Tarador was supposed to tell young Koren Bladewell that he is a wizard. They were supposed to tell everyone that he is not a jinx, that all the bad things that happen around him are because he can't control the power inside him, power he doesn't know about. The people of his village, even his parents, are afraid of him, afraid he is cursed. That he is a dangerous, evil jinx.

I love magic. And this book was magic!
Revisado: 11-26-17
I'm not a fan of street magic; I like the magic that is this world.
When I heard that Neil Patrick Harris was narrating this book I decided right then to buy it. And I didn't go wrong; it's a fabulous book. I enjoyed it so much all the way through that it rose to the top of my favorite reads. Right up there with Harry Potter and a few other awesome books on my literal and virtual overcrowded bookshelves. I bought it for my seven-year-old grandson and it was the first book he actually listened to, got, and enjoyed, as we rode up and down the hills of Topanga.
This book will hold your attention from the first paragraph to the last; has characters that you will like at once; and has a little mystery that wants to be solved. There's a lot more to it than that but it's 5 o'clock in the morning and I want to see if there's a sequel on Audible so that's enough for now.

Historia
A prolific journalist, Martin Walker has crafted a mystery series that deftly blends the stylings of Peter Mayle and Alexander McCall Smith. Chief Bruno Courreges loves life in his small French village. One day his idyll is disturbed when a local research station for genetically modified crops is burned down. An enclave of environmentalists seems to be the most likely culprit, but soon Bruno uncovers evidence that makes the case infinitely more complicated.

Narrator was perfect for this story. This isn't a fast paced, heart pounding story, but it was enjoyable and kept my attention. I must say I'm now hooked on the Bruno series. The stories, a hot cup of tea or a glass of wine and I'm good to go.

Easy to connect with protagonist, whom I found very likeable. The story kept me interested and satisfied. I would like to read more of this world and see the two main characters develop even more. Being who they are, they are bound to create an interesting future.

I almost missed this one
Revisado: 09-17-15
Though I feared I would regret it, some little voice told me to go for it. It caught me at once, instantly impressed and intrigued, and remained so to the end. And I was upset that it was ending that there wouldn't be more of this brilliant book. This book pushed me over the edge to become a true fan of Sanderson. Thank you for taking me somewhere I never thought I'd go. Please continue the story.

Historia
Brave Irene is Irene Bobbin, the dressmaker's daughter. Her mother, Mrs. Bobbin, isn't feeling so well and can't possibly deliver the beautiful ball gown she's made for the duchess to wear that very evening. So plucky Irene volunteers to get the gown to the palace on time, in spite of the fierce snowstorm that's brewing—quite an errand for a little girl. But where there's a will, there's a way, as Irene proves in the danger-fraught adventure that follows. She must defy the wiles of the wicked wind, her most formidable opponent, and overcome many obstacles before she completes her mission.

Fantastic Story, Read Beautifully
Revisado: 01-02-15
Where does Brave Irene rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
A beautifully read story about a young girl on a special mission for her mother. It's so well-read that even very small children can grasp and be drawn into the story. Just the reader's voice is worth listening to, a lovely story teller. So happy I decided to download this!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Brave Irene?
When Irene freed herself from the snow.
What about Meryl Streep’s performance did you like?
Her melodic voice, but also her incredible story-telling skills.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, definitely.
Any additional comments?
I would rather have Steep's voice than a million dollars. ;)

Not real to me
Revisado: 07-01-14
What would have made The Afterlife of Billy Fingers better?
I am an avid reader of NDEs and such spiritual events. I tried to listen to this but it never got better for me. It sounded like a poorly written novel and I had no stomach to listen to the end. I can't say what would have made this better for me.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Dying to Be Me: My Journey from Cancer, to Near Death, to True Healing by Anita Moorjani
What didn’t you like about Susan Ericksen and David Colacci ’s performance?
It wasn't serious enough, maybe. It was more like listening to a YA novel.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Afterlife of Billy Fingers?
I can't honestly and fairly answer that. I feel like saying all of it...but that's not fair to the author and performers. Usually I relate to these subjects. This story doesn't feel real, which is what I'm interested in.
