About this listen

Vancouver is the story Paul would tell if he were living in plague times - a story that comforts, a story that wards of evil. His story is about the giant that influenced his life, it's about the day the world changed, and it's about what happens when our giants come tumbling down.

This rates a 3.5 from me. Like the previous entry in the series, I felt this one dragged a bit, only here it was in the second half. Earls is an exceptional writer, however, so the story remains engaging simply due to the strength of his skills. Listeners should be aware that this one has some production problems. There are awkward silences throughout; one 10 second-long dead air space had me checking to see if my phone had died. The narrator also consistently mispronounces one of the main character's names, Knut, despite the authors inclusion of the correct pronunciation, "noot," which the narrator then proceeds to ignore for the entirety of the novella. Get used to hearing "nut" a lot. Frustrating.

Just be aware...
