Narration was fantastic!

Narrator Wil Tabares was amazing! This was a lively performance including music, sound effects, & character voices that sounded natural and believable. The Mexican and Spanish names are pronounced naturally, without ever interrupting the flow of storytelling in English.

The book is in two parts: Part one is about the history of the legend. The storytelling happens in Part two. I personally was interested in the historu of the legend; but if you aren't, you can skip to Part two and be fine.
