Such good storytelling

Loved listening to this book, the storytelling was brilliant and entertaining, glad to have purchased it to give a listen, I recommend if you are keen on Scottish tales.

Enchanting

I had this in written word before being gifted this spoken word version. The stories were already completely captivating and I have bought multiple copies as gifts but then what a gift for me to be told these stories again by skilful narrator Angus King! Through some kind of alchemy he has brought these stories to new heights. The intimacy he has with each of the characters shines brightly in his telling. Its has been such a joy to listen as I wind down before bed. This book will take you places! Very well done!
