Resumen del Editor

In this first book in the Mango Bob series, Walker has just lost his job, his wife has filed for divorce, and he’s living in a tent down by the river.

Being ever-resourceful, Walker swaps his truck for a motorhome (a.k.a. "the Love Bus"), and agrees to drive it cross-country to sleepy Englewood, Florida, so he can deliver a cat named Mango Bob to a woman he's never met.

Should be easy, right? Drive to Florida, hand over the cat, and then hang out on the beach.

Except there’s an unsolved murder involving the Love Bus, the Mexican mafia, and a half million in missing gold coins.

Add to the mix a trigger-happy grandma, a team of bungling burglars, the hot chick with the kayak, the repo man, and you get a rollicking travel romp through the Sunshine State.

A fun and fast listen!

Good story with great narration.

I enjoyed the story and particularly appreciated the clear and expressive narration. I'll definitely be listening to more stories from the Mango Bob series.

Great

I have enjoyed the books so much I own all of them. It’s great that the they’re being released in as audiobooks. We need to have the rest of the series on audiobooks.

Feel-good, PG rated, story!

I recently began listening to audible books and just finished Mango Bob by Bill H. Myers and narrated by Mike Steele. In today’s world of violence, foul language, and explicit sex, this was quite refreshing! It is definitely family-friendly, rated PG. My 11-year-old niece can’t wait for Book 2 to come out on Audible!

The main character is John Walker, a mild-mannered man, who finds himself without a job, divorced, and no place to live. At first, he lives in a tent on the river, then he buys an RV from his former employer and goes on an adventure to Florida (from Arkansas) to deliver a cat, Mango Bob, to a friend’s sister. It does take a while to get into the story.

Walker gets drawn into a mystery that involves his new RV, and he meets people along the way who help him get out of trouble. It is a feel-good story and a fun listen!

Mike Steele does a great job of narrating. He has good timing, is engaging, breathes life into the characters, and is a gifted storyteller.

Warning! This book is addictive!

My wife and I started listening to this as we were driving to and from work. It wasn't long until we discovered we were missing turns that were previously automatically taken. We'd drive right by because we were so lost in the story. Then there were times we'd get to where we were going but didn't want to get out of the car. Or we'd get home and discover we'd forgotten to run an errand on the way home.

This book has transformed two previously organized people in to Mango Bob addicts, as well as our 11 year old granddaughter. We are well into the second book of the series (Mango Lucky) and it is feeding our addiction rather nicely.

Our main complaint with the series is that it is taking far too long between books! Pick up the pace guys!

Fun story

Very delightful story brought to life by great narration.
I was drawn to listen intently as the characters progressed thought this adventure.
I look forward to the next journey for this series.
