Caycee's Cave: An Irish Tale

De: Holly K. Szurpicki

Narrado por: Benjamin Fife

This tale is about a boy named Yipson Minor who ends up on the island of Evolone Hills with his father, mother, and sister. He doesn't originate from there but was given a push by a divine king for a divine purpose.

As a child, Yipson was under the oppression of a wicked kingdom. But once on the island, he uncovers a secret dictionary from an odd professor that leads him on a chain of events of discovery. Is it Yipson’s wild imagination, or have some things unreal become real?

In the meantime, his sister, Caycee, makes her own discovery of a secret cave and a golden dragon named Frolick. But little do they realize that her life is in danger, and nothing but a miracle can save her.

A must read.

I so enjoyed this tale. The narration was beautifully done and added so much to the story.

Great Narrator not a good book

This book has a person who is cured of their panic attacks and anxiety by God. Not a good book for kids avoid.

Uplifting and amusing way to pass a couple of hour

Listening to this book is like suddenly acquiring an Irish grandfather who loves to tell you outlandish, whimiscal stories of things that truly happened to him. With often hilrious asides, such as having nostrils big enough for small birds to fly up and get stuck in one's nose. And some good moral lessons as well, such as remaining steadfast in the face of adversity. I was slamdunked back to my Irish mythos class as I listened to Fife's narrration, who does an excellent job of capturing not just the accent but the cadence of the language. It's an amusing romp perfect for all ages. I received a free copy of this audio book for a fair and honest review.

Good story

This was a fun, whimsical story with a strong Irish flavor. Given that it is an Irish fantasy, I was disappointed by the extreme Christian teachings in it. From that perspective, it reminded me a lot of C.S. Lewis' Lion, Witch, and Wardrobe stories that I loved reading as a kid until someone pointed out the religious references. I don't like preachy stories. That being said, the narrator was great and if you can get past the religious stuff (it is couched in the story, not overt) or don't care if your story is trying to preach to you, it is very good. Most of the religious stuff is good morals and having faith. Good fantasy novel.

A Cute Book

This is a story where you have the main character telling the story in the first person. He talks of bad kings, dragons, and many fantastic stories that supposedly happened to him or his family. The storyline is well developed and the characters are believable. The Narrator Benjamin Fife does a good job with the accents. You will want to stay with this book as it reals you in to a fun book. I personally love Fantasy books. Enjoy!

Uplifting fun and inspiring

I loved the narrator he spoke with an Irish accent.
It’s a fun book and perfect to read to children. It’s wholesome but never boring! I loved this book and will buy a ebook copy to have on hand to read to Rowdy children at the pediatrician office. This book will get any child’s or adults attention.
I highly recommend this book!

Story Time!

Feels like your Irish uncle telling you a story, really enjoyed that. Story was simple, short and child friendly. Very much enjoyed it.

A Children's book enjoyable for Adults

This was a Fun & Silly story telling of various things with a Dictionary of Silly words. I think that this book would be a great book for grandparents to read to the little one.
