Story
"I'm going down now", I said to a young woman a few seconds before the darkness-my first cardiac arrest. As I returned to work as a behavioral coach, it became maddening to hear about all-consuming, everyday problems and misguided priorities while I fought to merely remain conscious. The Half-Known Life challenges conventional thinking of success, identity, and personal change. Most often, truly profound change happens following events that shake someone to their core-a car accident, death of a family member, or cardiac arrest that pulls them into a moment of clarity.

Story
Dave Pelzer was brutally abused as a child by his emotionally unstable, alcoholic mother. She considered him a slave - no longer a boy, but an "it". He was physically and mentally tortured and starved. The outside world knew nothing of the nightmare he experienced behind closed doors, and his father was aware of the abuse but turned to denial and alcohol. The abuse only fueled a determination to survive and become stronger.

Imagine a town where the people perpetually live in the 1950s, a place where time has all but stopped and where everyone loves his family, job, and life. In this strange place, only a select few people ever leave the city limits and even then, they leave reluctantly. This is what fifteen and a half year old Benjamin Granault faces as, through a string of amazing events, he finds himself living in a town where he can never talk about modern technology or current events, a place where being an outsider can cost a person his life and being part of the community may very well cost more.

Story
Twelve-year-old Daniel, the new kid in town, soon learns the truth about his nice - but odd - new friends: one can fly, another can turn invisible, yet another controls electricity. Incredible. The superkids use their powers to secretly do good in the town, but they’re haunted by the fact that the moment they turn thirteen, their abilities will disappear - along with any memory that they ever had them. Is a memory-stealing supervillain sapping their powers?

Story
Imagine a town where the people perpetually live in the 1950s, a place where time has all but stopped and where everyone loves his family, job, and life. In this strange place, only a select few people ever leave the city limits, and even then they leave reluctantly. This is what 15-year old Benjamin Granault faces as, through a string of amazing events, he finds himself living in a town where he can never talk about modern technology or current events.

Story
Ben McKelvie believes he's moving up in the world when he and his fiancée buy a house in the cushy Washington, DC, suburb of Barcroft. Instead he's moving down - way down - thanks to Madeleine Roux, the crazy neighbor whose vermin-infested property is a permanent eyesore and looming hazard to public health. First Ben's fiancée leaves him; then his dog dies, apparently killed by a predator drawn into Barcroft by Madeleine's noxious menagerie. But the worst is yet to come for Ben.

One of the most original stories I've heard!
Story Impressions –
Discovery of the Five Senses is an outstanding young adult superhero fantasy adventure I couldn’t put down. It truly is an edge-of-your-seat adventure I couldn’t stop reading. The plot moves at a quick pace with a fair share of action scenes to whet the appetite of any reader. The world-building is second to none, meaning it pulls the reader in and doesn’t let go until the last page. K.N. Smith is a gifted writer whose imagination oozes from every page. The descriptive narration is intricate with just the right amount of detail without overloading the reader’s senses. The five main characters, though, are what make this an unputdownable read. I connected with each character in a different way and was heavily invested in their journey. I’ve not read many fantasy books that surprise me but this one did. An original superhero fantasy to be savored.

Glenn Steinbaum’s voice has an individuality all its own but when it employs the various character voices, it takes on each character with ease. I thoroughly adored his voice.

Cinematic fantasy at its best
Discovery of the Five Senses is the first entertaining book in the promising Urban Boys series, a new young adult fantasy audiobook saga from K.N. Smith, an award-winning author and advocate of literacy and arts programs throughout the world.
The story follows five friends living in a small town that unbeknownst to anyone has been chosen by unknown powers to be the battlefield where the war between good and evil will take place. Sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell become super-powers for the teen friends and only by harnessing these newly found abilities they may have a fighting chance to save their town and maybe the entire world.
I really enjoyed the time spent with this well written, captivating and entertaining YA fantasy story filled with action, mystery, cinematic confrontations and unforgettable characters.
The audiobook version of Discovery of the Five Senses is flawlessly narrated by Glenn Steinbaum, a renowned Los Angeles singer, voiceover artist, and narrator. His excellent performance in combination with a great audio production that features both music and sound effects ensure that the listener gets the highest level of immersion possible and a riveting narrative experience. I think that Glenn was the perfect choice as the voice for this captivating story and I love how he managed to bring all the characters to life.
If you like well written fantasy stories featuring colorful characters, harrowing adventures, extreme action, vivid descriptions and epic battles, I highly recommend that you check out Discovery of the Five Senses! I will keep an ear out for the second audiobook in this extremely promising series and on any new releases by this talented author.
