Publisher's summary

After five long years in the army, First Lieutenant John Flynn was finally being mustered out and would soon be going home to the family he hadn’t even heard from in all that time. But when he rode to the family home, he made two shocking discoveries: his family was gone, and he had been declared dead by the army four years earlier. He left to cross the plains of Nebraska to find his family, but he would find so much more.

Narrator brings book and its characters to life

This book was brought to life by the narrator. His voice is so mellow and just right for this book. By subtly changing his voice for different characters, you knew who they were. That being said, I have a bad habit of staying up all night reading books, even those I have read many times. My husband is getting desperate so I tried this audible book. It is so lovely to have someone read me to sleep, At 70 years old, this book is better than a lullaby at night. But also wonderful to listen to during the day. I look forward to sharing this book with my husband who likes to read quantum physics for fun. C. J. Petit is my favorite author and “Slow John” has a great storyline for all times of day.

Good story

I liked the story. The reader did a great job. It was a little mushy though.

Slow John

This is an excellent book. I was totally invested in John's Character right from the start. John comes home from the army and finds his family has moved out west. They think he's been killed in the army. On John's trip he meets a woman named Kate. There is a good story line with Kate and John. They are the Two main characters. I could not stop listening to this book. It's that good. It's written perfect.I think it's well worth a credit or buying. Michael Alan White does an excellent job narrating this book. If my review is any help will you please click on the helpful link below. Thank you.
