Such good storytelling

I had this in written word before being gifted this spoken word version. The stories were already completely captivating and I have bought multiple copies as gifts but then what a gift for me to be told these stories again by skilful narrator Angus King! Through some kind of alchemy he has brought these stories to new heights. The intimacy he has with each of the characters shines brightly in his telling. Its has been such a joy to listen as I wind down before bed. This book will take you places! Very well done!

Great Storytelling

I was enamored with these stories from the very beginning. Angus King does an amazing job bringing these stories to life, and no story lacked entertainment. They are great for car rides alone or with the whole family. These stories made me gasp or laugh or both! I was also surprised at how surreal some of them were, although I am not familiar with any Scottish fairytales. 10/10 recommend!

Rich in folklore and incredibly entertaining!

Amazing book

I found Daniel in the first place from his awesome podcast, and shortly thereafter decided to read his books. The stories are wonderful and his versions of them are truly exciting. I was hoping for an audiobook version so that I could listen to them as bedtime stories. While I was a little bummed that Daniel chose not to voice the audiobook version of these myths himself, I am very pleased with the voice that he chose. Angus King does an excellent job reading these myths and legends and I am very excited to have these bedtime stories in my pocket.
