At first I felt like the acting involved in the narration was going to be too much of a distraction but soon I was captivated by the story and the narration drew me in deeper.

A powerful story about the power of stories

I’m an avid horror reader, but every now and then one of my fav authors will remind me how important it is to wander outside of that genre. McCammon wrote something truly memorable with this story, and as I listened to it on Christmas Day, it really hit the spot.
