I Mean This In A Good Way...
This is a great podcast to help me fall asleep! Soothing voice + calming narrative = restful sleep 💤 So grateful to find this! Have downloaded every episode 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Solar Clipper Series
I’m revisiting the SC series after quite a few years. There’s 3 new books coming out soon so I wanted to get a refresher on Ish and the crew. The characters are so charming and no one narrates the series better than Mr. Lowell himself. The audiobook version has a great narrator (Mr. Kaffer I believe) but I don’t think anyone knows the characters better than the man himself, Nathan Lowell. The descriptors he uses are very unique and he uses them throughout the entire solar clipper series. Sailing in the deep dark with Ish is beautiful, fun, romantic and dangerous. Do yourself a favor and listen to all 6 books. The next 3 in the series (Seeker’s Tale)is available in audiobook form on Apple Books and Audible. Safe voyage.
Totally engaging
Very well done. Kept my interest all through, and kept me coming back for more. A+
