Gripping, poetic, atmospheric. I loved it. Well worth a listen. Narration perfect. The life of an otter is a hard one.

I loved listening to this book, which accompanied me on my journey to and from work or out walking the dog on a rainy day. I was totally engrossed in it. Although it felt slightly different to Barbara's other works I felt it was equally just as good. I've read lots of her books and listened to a few too over the years.

The narrator made the story come to life for me and was fabulous at all the different character voices. For me personally, the narrator can make or break a good story but this one was spot on. I've already looked for more books read by Vivian Helbrun but disappointed to find only this one. I hope she does a few more.

Ok, so there were one or two frustrations with the Police not catching one of the villains earlier but it didn't detract from the storyline.

All in all a really good book. Thanks Babs, now onto the next one!

There were a lot of familiar things in this book within my own life. I felt so much for the author and her relationship with her parents. I cried a couple of times while listening to it. Credit to the narrator who made the whole thing believable.

Listening to Chris's story of growing up, I was intrigued to know more about the person who persists so much to give nature a voice.

I found the pace of the book satisfying. The trials and tribulations of his growing up days led me to feel normal. The guy has taken an emotional battering and one literally throughout school life for being different. We all feel at some point that we don't quite fit in (don't we) but the book showed that some have to deal with much more crap than others. I really enjoyed it and felt a lump in my throat.

Tom has done remarkably well losing 8 stone and his book is inspiring. It has encouraged me to start my own weight loss program, so for that it deserves 5 stars. If there is any slight criticism, I would have like a bit more information on his weight loss progress and how he overcame the daily temptations of food. A bit more information on the individual meal times would have been useful but maybe that will come in a further book.

I did enjoy the book and got the impression that Tom is a thoroughly decent bloke supported by his family. I wish him well in his future endeavours and hope that he gets back into politics because the world needs people like Tom to make a difference!

This book gives you the lowdown on 1066 in a concise, non waffling way. It might not suit everyone but it is an hour well spent. As a person who loves listening to documentaries I now feel I can put the events of this eventful year into chronological order, which may not have happened if I'd read a more detailed analysis. It has paved the way for me to delve into further reading of this period.
