Two nice reviews and a new free recording on Internet Archive!

I've been busy, busy, busy with back-to-back narration jobs but I just noticed two very nice reviews for previously published books.



One is for Black Cloud: The Deadly Hurricane of 1928 by Eliot Kleinberg.  Audiofile Magazine has a blog and an article by Francisca Goldsmith, "Whither the Weather, We're Listening: Extreme Weather Audiobooks," has a nice mention of Black Cloud.  The article can be seen here. You can listen to a sample and/or purchase the book here.


The second book reviewed is a romance called The Bedwarmer's Son by Caryl McAdoo.  The audio version received a lovely review in InD'Tale Magazine.  That review may be found here.  You can listen to sample and/or purchase the book here.


Finally, a Voices of Today production of Robert Frost's poems was just released to their page on the Internet Archive.  I was very happy to be a participant in this project.  As always, books on the Internet Archive are free for downloading and listening.  The A Boy's Will may be accessed here.

My latest recording -- a historical romance!



My latest recording just went live on Audible yesterday.  The Bedwarmer's Son by Caryl McAdoo actually falls into several categories.  It's a historical romance, a murder trial, and Christian fiction.  I loved giving voices to the different characters in this one.


"What if Abel had killed Cain, but there was no jury of his peers?

In 1928 Georgia, a black man who kills a white man is automatically guilty, but the bedwarmer's son, an ex-slave, is no normal black man. And the dead white man is his half-brother. Once his lily-white lawyer lady learns the truth, everything changes. Can she save him from swinging?

Will the bedwarmer murder the one she's been bought to serve?

From the antebellum South, come travel the dusty trails of Jim Crowe Dalton, Georgia, with slave and master, saint and sinner. See if God is really big enough, if he truly cares about his children. McAdoo has done it again, this time in a brand new way. A delightful morsel for the palates of Christian listeners world round."

To listen to a sample and/or purchase the book, head to Audible here.
