ON MY HONOR

This novel can be interpreted on several levels, and, fortunately, the narrator more than does it justice. The two main characters are twelve-year-old boys with vastly different personalities. Conger's portrayal of each is splendid. The story involves parents, children and a tragedy. The pain, torment and regret in the narrator's voice translate perfectly to the listener's ear and emotion. This is a story that could go either way in its conversion to audio. Thanks to the well-rendered presentation, a wonderful book becomes a superior recorded book.
