Story
The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

effects not effective
Upon hearing the names of the narrators, I had happy anticipation. The performances were okay, just okay. The disappointing part was the effects. The background music was much too loud and didn't especially fit the stories. And when there was reverb or voices were filtered, it really detracted from the story. As much as I like the individual actors, I think voice acting is a special art and it may have been best left to the experts.
