Loved It

This book was amazing, intriguing and very funny. Still trying to figure out the significance of the frogs but I understood why she was driven insane by them.

Wish I could see this as a play

The story is very captivating. The way its written, it would make a good play. There's humor and darkness. But not in a evil way, in a heavy way. Definitely a good listen even though its short.

Who are the frogs?

What is their significance in the story? That was the part that got me confused.

Eerie and Evocative

This may be the strangest thing I've ever listened to, but I already want to listen to it again. We dive straight into the confusion and chaos, simultaneous with the protagonist, and it's extremely disconcerting.

While short, Soothsayers is quite dense, and layered with so much symbolism that it warrants multiple listens, or discussion with others with differing perspectives. This one will stay with you long after you're done listening.

The originality of the story experience

I liked the ride, the poetry, the performances and it left me wanting more. Shareable!
