Resumen del Editor

Stopping a tornado was the first of many strange events that seem to follow Weylyn from town to town, although he doesn't like to take credit. As amazing as these powers may appear, they tend to manifest themselves at inopportune times and places. From freak storms to trees that appear to grow over night, Weylyn's unique abilities are a curiosity at best and at worst, a danger to himself and the woman he loves. But Mary doesn't care. Since Weylyn saved her from an angry wolf on her 11th birthday, she's known that a relationship with him isn't without its risks, but as anyone who's met Weylyn will tell you, once he wanders into your life, you'll wish he'd never leave.

Beasts of Extraordinary Circumstance tells the story of Weylyn Grey's life from the perspectives of the people who knew him, loved him, and even a few who thought he was just plain weird. Although he doesn't stay in any of their lives for long, he leaves each of them with a story to tell. Stories about a boy who lives with wolves, great storms that evaporate into thin air, fireflies that make phosphorescent honey, and a house filled with spider webs and the strange man who inhabits it.

Exceptional

This a not only a fun read but can change your perspective. Thank you to author and reader.

Slow but worth it

A little slow and boring at times, but worth it at the end. Great little romance story.

Delightful story

Compelling story.

Relatable characters (in spite of their supernatural experiences).

Not quite like anything else I’ve read, but it felt comfortable somehow.

Overall, just delightful, even in the face of addressing some of our most common difficult emotions. A few of laugh-out-louds, several glassy-eyed moments and chuckles, and ultimately left feeling emotionally bolstered.

This book was a hill to climb for the voice actors, but I think they did well and I couldn’t design a better way to perform it.

Story for the family

Loved the story with my kiddo. The story telling is a little different so give it some time to understand how it all connects. The narration was good and the voices for the characters stayed consistent. A good story with many lessons along the way.

A great delight

This is a beautiful delightful book and was enhanced by such skilled narration. The perfect combination of magic and relationships.

sad it ended

I enjoyed every moment of this book. wonderful story wonderful narration I found it hard to give up.

An allTime fave

This is one of those books I didn’t want to end. In fact I listened twice because I just couldn’t get enough. The narration is worth the audible. Excellent!

Narration as magical as the story

This is perhaps my favorite listen of the year this far, and it was audiobook 80 for me. If you are having any doubts, just do it. Your heart will thank you.

One of the best books I have ever read/listened to

I felt calmness, energy, joy, sorrow....every emotion conceivable while listening to this book! My morning walks were a breeze with this book! I was sad to have it end...

hidden live story

I love the hidden love story. I love the voices chosen for this. I don't like the audible chapters didn't match up with the book chapters. I use this to mark my spot in the book after my drive to work.
