Thomas Wingfold, Curate, Volume 1

By: George MacDonald

Narrated by: Simon Bubb

The first installment of an incredible novel by George Macdonald, this volume introduces the main character of this three part journey, Thomas Wingfold. His dutiful demeanor and routine religious position are reflected in his faith, which has become stagnant and rote. Throughout Volume 1, Thomas begins to wrestle with certain aspects of his beliefs and encounters several individuals with unique perspectives that eventually spark sincere reflection in this quiet figure. Experiencing confusion, doubt, and heavy questions, Wingfold begins his journey to true faith as he struggles with his understanding of the faith he’s professed his entire life.

misleading description.

Yes, this is a great book, the first of a trilogy. The sequels are also well worth the read. But, be aware that this is not the complete book. They are only giving you one third of the book. This was done by ONE Audiobooks, not Audible. You'll have to buy two more to hear the complete book. Shame on you ONE Audiobooks.

What a great book

Just as good as I remember it being. I do wish the narrator didn’t sound so stilted during 1.5 speed, but overall it’s lovely and not grating on the ears .

Story is 10/10. But I didn’t have another credit to buy volume two.

Beware! You must buy three installments!

I read the Thomas Wingate novel many years ago and thought it’d be an enjoyable listen. However, it turns out they’ve divided the novel into three installments, each costing about $12. This is a ripoff. Way too expensive to spend around $35 for such an olld novel when you consider you can purchase complete collections of Agatha Christy or the Father Brown mysteries for just a few dollars.
I’m hoping someone will produce audio versions of all of the George MacDonald novels, much like Michael Phillips did in print many years ago. But to break one novel Into three installments feels like a scheme to squeeze all the money possible from it, and I refuse to spend anymore.
