Stopping a tornado was the first of many strange events that seem to follow Weylyn from town to town, although he doesn't like to take credit. As amazing as these powers may appear, they tend to manifest themselves at inopportune times and places. From freak storms to trees that appear to grow over night, Weylyn's unique abilities are a curiosity at best and at worst, a danger to himself and the woman he loves. But Mary doesn't care. Since Weylyn saved her from an angry wolf on her 11th birthday, she's known that a relationship with him isn't without its risks, but as anyone who's met Weylyn will tell you, once he wanders into your life, you'll wish he'd never leave.

Beasts of Extraordinary Circumstance tells the story of Weylyn Grey's life from the perspectives of the people who knew him, loved him, and even a few who thought he was just plain weird. Although he doesn't stay in any of their lives for long, he leaves each of them with a story to tell. Stories about a boy who lives with wolves, great storms that evaporate into thin air, fireflies that make phosphorescent honey, and a house filled with spider webs and the strange man who inhabits it.

A little slow and boring at times, but worth it at the end. Great little romance story.

Compelling story.

Relatable characters (in spite of their supernatural experiences).

Not quite like anything else I’ve read, but it felt comfortable somehow.

Overall, just delightful, even in the face of addressing some of our most common difficult emotions. A few of laugh-out-louds, several glassy-eyed moments and chuckles, and ultimately left feeling emotionally bolstered.

This book was a hill to climb for the voice actors, but I think they did well and I couldn’t design a better way to perform it.

Delightful story

Loved the story with my kiddo. The story telling is a little different so give it some time to understand how it all connects. The narration was good and the voices for the characters stayed consistent. A good story with many lessons along the way.

Story for the family

Read this for book club and though I would not have picked this book myself I enjoyed the listen. The story was like eating a single piece of fine dark chocolate. Bitter-sweet, whimsical and had a smooth finish that left a pleasant yet melancholy aftertaste.

A story that gives a glimpse of loneliness

Feels a lot like the tall tales (Paul Bunyan and the like) that I grew up on but less over the top. Really well balanced action, character development, and backstory reveals. Top-notch narration from the entire group. Liked this a lot more than I expected to 👍👍

Not my usual fare, but worth the listen.

A story of the relationship people have with nature, animals, weather, and people. One man who is more comfortable with animals and wolves than with people. The interactions he has with all the people who really care about him even if they don’t completely understand him. He is magical and amazing and genuine and honest.

A person more comfortable with nature than people

This is one of those books I didn’t want to end. In fact I listened twice because I just couldn’t get enough. The narration is worth the audible. Excellent!
