Great book

It was the best book I have heard in years and everyone loved it in the family especially the kids who are years apart 11-18 I would definitely recommend this book

The Scourge

I loved this book so much!! The narrator wasn't my favorite but was better than some I've heard before.

A lovely story:)

I completely enjoyed listening to this story It was a good change from my usual audiobooks and the narrator was great as usual. The scourge was to me like many of the modern medicine and opiates that are given to people suffering from some pain or illness and all it really does is numb or mask the problem while leaving behind a worse feeling when it wears off. What a great story to listen to that just flew right by. I finished it all in one sitting:)!
