Story5 out of 5 stars 3
This tale takes place in Iscium, an isolated Roman village in Britain. Most of the town senators and officials are primarily concerned with keeping a low profile with the neighboring barbarians - with the exception of the crotchety old bishop. But when young Falx decides to run away to Rome and instead finds a lost barbarian girl, things begin to happen. The children are found by a merchant who returns them to Iscium. This is a zany mix of history, humor, and the miraculous - in the tradition of Don Camillo.

Sun Slower, Sun Faster by Meriol Trevor is an adventure story with a difference - it is soon after World War II, and Cecil (short for Cecilia) along with her cousin Rickie are thrown into a series of adventures that have little to do with the England that they know. Inexplicably, they and their eccentric tutor Dominic find themselves in another time.

Judea has always been the crossroads and battlefield of contending nations. It is no less so in this biblical time of the Judges. Uriah Tarhund's Hittite home is destroyed by invading Greeks. His dying father tells him to go south to seek a Canaanite named Sisera. When he saves a young boy from being sacrificed to Moloch, he is given succor for a time by the Hebrews.

What begins as a quiet day of fishing, with 16-year-old Sven Klakk enviously watching the men using fleygs (fowling nets) to catch birds on the cliffs high above him, ends in a tumult of suspense and terror. A force 10 gale; a damaged ship in danger of smashing up on the rocks of the island most of the crew call home; a handful of women, old men, and one 16-year-old boy, to rescue the desperately helpless men....

Publisher's summary
Thirteen-year-old Matt is spending the holidays at the dilapidated Woodhall mansion where his spirited step-sister Caroline works as cook. In a faded rose garden, Matt meets Alix, proud old Madame Ayre’s granddaughter, and is introduced to the tension-filled relationship between the embittered mother and her crippled son Theo. Matt must learn to judge character rather than appearances, as Theo strives to turn the house into a home for orphans. Alix, through her willful foolishness, puts Theo’s life in danger and brings a dramatic confrontation: Christian hope versus fatal self-pride.
A timeless book with a fast-paced plot and vivid characters.

Good story``Worst recording on Audible -
This is a beautiful story of adventure, forgiveness, mercy, and the message of redemption. However, the narrator of this story butchers all of the secondary voices so badly that it is hard for me to listen to -- I did listen to all of it as I'm using it in a classroom and want to be sure to have heard the entire book. However, I will be cautioning students against relying on this audiobook as it actually ruins the story. The secondary characters are "voiced" so badly that it interferes with the story.
