    Why we think it’s a great listen: Seabiscuit was a runaway success, and Hillenbrand’s done it again with another true-life account about beating unbelievable odds. On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared.....

    What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

    This series started well. Perhaps the novelty of the plot...it ultimately deteriorated into unnecessary complexity...with predictability, nonetheless. An overall disappointment. I was surprised to see it rated more popular/enjoyable than the Harry Potter Series. not even close! IMHO.


    What about Carolyn McCormick’s performance did you like?

    Just prejudiced (favorably) from her days at Law & Order


    What character would you cut from Mockingjay?

    The President.....Snow
