Dragonflies

Journeys into the Paranormal

De: Evelyn Klebert

Narrado por: Evelyn Klebert

In every form of creation, there is a blueprint for living, for experience, for interpretation. In flight, they can twist, turn, alter direction, pause in midair, and even fly backward. The dragonfly is the master of adaptability. They are a living prism, refracting light, and color, seemingly shifting their essence.

The lesson the dragonfly gives is that life is never what it appears to be.

In "The Wizard," as a novice practitioner of magic, Aurora Finn finds herself battling against the illusions of a powerful wizard intent on separating her from the world she knows.

"The Sojourners" is a gentle story of a mother and daughter whose tenancy in an old Virginia farmhouse uncovers the trials and sorrows of its former occupants.

A bookstore clerk gets an extraordinary customer on Halloween night in "Late One Night at Berstrums Books."

In "The Tear," a woman coping with her fatal illness unknowingly begins a track on a mystical journey that will entirely restructure her vision of the world.

These stories follow the path of the dragonfly imbued with the momentum and energy of change, taking a winding and treacherous journey that ultimately leads to truth buried beneath perception.

I enjoyed the Wizard, but both leads captured my interest from to the unexpected twists in the story.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Because this was a collection of short stories, while I wanted to hear all of each story, it was not necessary to listen to the whole book in one setting.

Any additional comments?

The flow of the stories lead into each other and while they were distinct, each complemented the other.

Dragonflies

Overall I enjoyed listening to the stories. What I didn’t care for was The narrator. She was terrible she just drowned as if she was bored with what she was doing. It was Almost painful to listen to her voice no inflections whatsoever.
