5.0 out of 5 stars I didn't want this one to end..., August 31, 2009
This review is from: Skellig (Audio CD)
Weird and wonderful. I listened to this one and it was one of those rare find where the author reads and it's magnificant. It is also the first audiobook to make good use of music - the first time I didn't actually find it irritating.

The story... the story was weird and wonderful and I didn't want it to end. I sort of felt like I was there with Michael and Mina and Skellig. The people that surround Michael are kind and he's able to feel his grief very deeply. The contrast between Michael and Mina and the friendship that grows between them is beautiful.

Naturally not everyone will love this book as much as I did. But it's not a long story and it is available on audio book so I would recommend that you at least give it a chance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Skellig elevated, December 2, 2009
This review is from: Skellig (Audio CD)
David Almond gives an exceptional reading of his wonderful story. This tenth anniversary edition is enhanced by music from the fantastic opera of Skellig by Tod Machover. The opera's premiere last year at the SAGE was the musical event of the season. I hope it enters the repertoire soon.
