Podcast Description
Corry showed up at the orphanage two years ago, unable to remember how he had gotten there. He spoke a language no one recognized, and he was afraid of cars and planes and computers. Corry can remember snippets of another life, but no matter how hard he tries to remember, it just keeps slipping away. Then one day, he meets a fauness in an orange grove. She is from a world called Panamindorah, and he can understand her language. In addition, Corry can read a language that no one in Panamindorah has been able to read for three hundred years; has he really been gone that long? Now he must recover his lost memories and rebuild his life, because the person who tried to kill him once is about to try again. The Prophet of Panamindorah is a free podcast novel for listeners 13 and older. This is the single feed for all three of the Prophet of Panamindorah books. If you want to listen to all of them in one place, as well as occasional comments from the author, subscribe here.

Customer Reviews
Impressed
If you are familiar with podiobooks, then you must feel my excitment when you find the ones you truly can't stop listening to. I do not complain about any of the other books I have listened to, but Abigal Hilton's series is my favorite. Her voice fits perfectly and she doesn't try to change it to fit the different characters. The music accompanying the series is also on point. This series is also good for a younger crowd and really only heard one part in the second book that made me uncomfortable. The second book also made me cry a few times, but I won't get into it.
Entertainment in a new universe
This is an entertaining listen, and I recommend it. Keeping up with Cory while he tries to remember his antecedents will keep you on your toes. You have never been anywhere like Panamindora, and nothing is quite what you expect.
The Closest New Fiction to Middle Earth
After finishing both parts 1& 2, I can truly state that this is closer to Middle Earth and Narnia than anything i have read. Good character development and excellent area descriptions. I wish more fantasy novels were as well done as this. I reccommend this series to everyone I know who even like fantasy. Great job, keep up the good writing.
