    Ethan Allen Hawley, the protagonist of this classic novel, works as a clerk in a grocery store that his family once owned. With the decline in their status, his wife is restless, and his teenage children are hungry for the tantalizing material comforts he cannot provide. Then one day, in a moment of moral crisis, Ethan decides to take a holiday from his own scrupulous standards.

    He did a great job with the voices.

    If you could sum up Catching Fire in three words, what would they be?

    Great job narrating by a fine actress, Caroly McCormick did a terrific job.


    Have you listened to any of Carolyn McCormick’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    I listened to all the Hunger Games series with Carolyn McCormick narrating. I would definately listen to more books on tape by her.
