Juvenile content

I had just finished reading " island song" which was just a wonderfully hand crafted book and moved on to this most recent title on audible from this author. The writing was not as thoughtful and i could not fully immerse my self in the story , I realise it is for young readers but it just did not cut the mustard. The narrator was not exceptional so that did not help. In all honesty I can't recommend this book., sorry to say.
