Again to Carthage

De: John L. Parker Jr.

Narrado por: Patrick Lawlor

Quenton Cassidy thought he had left his athletic career far behind as he built a successful professional career in south Florida. But as several personal tragedies and the wear and tear of life began to weigh upon him, he wonders if perhaps he hasn't given up a special part of his life too soon. His return to the world of competitive running is dramatic and revelatory to both the protagonist and the listener, as is his desperate, all-out attempt to make on last Olympic team.©2010 Brilliance Audio, Inc.; 2010 John L.

Third time listening to this one. Love it.

Love the story, love the characters, love the details runners will only get, love the descriptionsI'm and the dialog, love the performance. At once intelligent, articulate, scientific and witty. Classic book. I'm sure I'll visit again in a couple of years. BUT START with Once A Runner

Great ending!

I have absolutely loved reading and listening to the running adventures of Quentin Cassidy! Uplifting, motivating, and at times I wanted to cry! The ending of the marathon will get you! Trust me read this book!

The right stuff

All the things you expect in a a John L Parker Jr. novel. The pains of training intertwined with lots of family backstory. And of course a climactic race. Definitely should be read after Once A Runner and Racing the Rain. Highly recommended.

In the end, a great book

Slow start and I nearly gave up. Glad I didn't. The book does a good job of balancing the excitement of racing with the realisation of mortality and other sobering themes. I wound up loving this book.

Worth a listen

There aren’t a ton of fiction books on running. This is one of the better ones I’ve heard.
