WAR AMONGST THE ANGELS

This title tells the life story of the author’s fictional relative, Rose van Bek. Rose and her three closest compatriots are able to travel freely between our mundane world and the Second Ether, a magical plane of existence, where they find themselves involved in a battle between the forces of good and the devil himself. Narrator Chet Williamson adds a tone of gravitas to this fantastical story. But the recording is marred by multiple paper-shuffling sounds as well as mouth noises. These weaknesses in production detract from one's enjoyment of this clever tale. G.D. © AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2011]
