i loved the sequel. The original was so good that this was a slow start but blew up once it got going.

Great Read

Loved Everything about it well told‼️
A Definite Must Read….His Way of Storytelling Puts You Rite In The Book
Rest in Peace Guy Johnson😇

Best Sequel ever

Beautifully written saga fluidly spanning decades. Continuance from 1st book smooth. Realistic narration . Would listen to again.

This book will have you completely entranced!

This book was excellently written and included everything you look for in a book that will keep your attention. You will not want to stop until it’s done. This was better than a movie because you can imagine all the characters and events and twists and turns. I was excited and overwhelmed with emotions throughout the reading. This is one of my favorites and it still leaves much to the imagination with the ending. Food for thought… I love when writers leave the ending that way. Definitely one to have in your library 🤍

Awesome!

This book was awesome. I had no idea it would be part 2 to Standing At The Scratch Line. I believe that this will lead to part 3. I will be looking out for it.

Worth it-- better than "standing at the scratch"

What made the experience of listening to Echoes of a Distant Summer the most enjoyable?

You better say Joe... If you know the tag line than you will really enjoy this book!

I Won't Say Joe, 'Cause Now I Know!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely! Especially after reading the first book, Standing at the Scratch Line. Guy Johnson sure does know how to put together a story. Well written plot and spending much time on character development allows the reader to truly understand the actions the characters choose to take. Well done Mr. Johnson, Well done!

What other book might you compare Echoes of a Distant Summer to and why?

None. (Except for the first book Standing at the Scratch Line).

What about Peter Jay Fernandez’s performance did you like?

One of my favorite narrators, he has yet to prove me wrong, I love his pace, delivery, and how he draws you into the story.

If you could rename Echoes of a Distant Summer, what would you call it?

I would not. It fits.

WOW!

I Loved it!It's an Excellent book! I will enjoy listening to it time and time again!
