I’ve listened to 30 Ron Foster books

I love Ron Foster’s books. Somewhat addicted. This book was a good story. The only thing I didn’t like was all of the grammatical errors and what I would call typos and mispronunciations.


It made it very difficult to listen to the whole story.

I also wish there was an easier way to find all of the different series, in order.
