Excellent Narration

What made the experience of listening to The County Fair the most enjoyable?

He has a great voice and a good sense of timing and drama.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No.

Any additional comments?

I thought this was supposed to be considered an "inspirational" book. "Recorded Books Inspirational" "Dedicated to stories of faith and the human spirit." This is what the introduction to the book says. So how can you (the publisher - not Audible) classifiy it that way when a couple of times in the book, God's name is taken in vain - yet the author uses alternative slang for other curse words like heck and darn. Except for those curses, the story was ok. Not as good as the prequel.

Narrator is great

The author has a habit of lengthy descriptions but no explanations where it counts. Woman finds her grandson and that’s the extent of it. I wanted to hear his reaction and his mother’s.

Great story!

I have gotten to know the folks in Dorsetville and will miss them very much. All of the books in the series tell stories of faith and triumph of the human spirit.

Inspiring!

Loved it! Reminds me of the beloved "Mitford " series. Valentine does a wonderful job.

Wonderful adventure, all the way!

It's such a treat to hear this narrator read such beautiful words of faith. Fills my heart with joy.
Thank you.
