Story3 out of 5 stars 2
Selkies are Scottish seal people, and are considered magical shapeshifting creatures, able to interbreed with humans. Spoken of in many old stories, the females are said to make caring wives, and the men to be charming and good lovers. If their skin is captured, they will remain on land, though more is heard about women being captured than the men. If they find their stolen skin, they will return to the sea and any mate or family therein, though remaining nearby to watch over their land-children.

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
The audio quality was bad/inconsistent. The narrator spoke too slowly and somewhat monotone. But truly the most irritating thing was that the recording has music and a full introduction to cast, studio, etc., before EVERY chapter. This seriously interrupts the story and I quit listening after the third chapter.
What was most disappointing about Teresa Garcia’s story?
The story may have been a good one, I just could not stand to listen to it in this really poorly done audio format.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
