One Night in a Thousand Years

By: Craig Cunningham

Narrated by: James Van Der Beek

James Van Der Beek narrates an unforgettable coming-of-age journey set during a transformational time—high school senior year. Packed with laughter, wonder, beauty, and heartbreak, this poignant audiobook based on a true story is a must-listen for fans of the classic movie Dead Poets Society.

Senior year was supposed to be the time of Colt's life, but when he meets Lucas Oliver, a college-aged vagabond with a mysterious past, Colt's life takes an unexpected turn.

Lucas mentors Colt and a group of eleven other senior guys, guiding them through a series of rites of passage over the course of the year. They are challenged by the power of sacred questions, courageous acts, and vulnerable authenticity, but the question remains: can Lucas be trusted with his unorthodox ideas about God, life, and death? Along the way, Colt's feelings for Noa—a "band dork" he has known for years, deepen as he falls for her bright green eyes and charming honesty.

As Colt and the group of young men explore the wonders, romance, and adventures of their senior year, they are confronted with an event that challenges everything they hold true.

Fantastic

Compelling story with an equally compelling narration. It was a delight to listen to. If you’re looking for a story to haunt you long after, you can find it here.

Stellar delivery and content

The honest imagery and sense of hope is powerful in this book. Highly recommended novel!

Mesmerized by the voice and then quickly drawn into the story.

I honestly purchased this because of James Van Der Beeks voice and the trailer on his instagram page. His voice is amazing for audiobooks but I was also quickly intrigued by the short clip of storyline. I had no idea what the story was really even about but just started listening. I was sucked in to the story within minutes. I’m listening to it now for a second time. I definitely need to check out Craig Cunningham’s other books.

Beautiful language and powerful quotes

One Night in a Thousand Years was a beautifully written book that successfully captured the essence of being a teenage boy, about to graduate from high school and head out into the world who is unsure of life, love and what’s beyond.
