You’re in for a treat as Simon Vance (Booklist’s Voice of Choice) brings Fair O’Nelli’s journey to life in a way I hadn’t even imagined while writing her story. If I can brag on him just a bit more, Simon was also named to Audiofile Magazine Golden Voice status, June 2009. Just so you know, if you don’t already, that’s the equivalent of the Hall of Fame for narrators if there was such a thing. Congratulations, Simon.



I’ve read “Secret Speakers” twice and enjoyed it even more the second time. HOWEVER….listening to the audio book has been a remarkable experience! I am hearing the beauty of the language as read by Simon Vance. He is able to make the various characters come alive with such remarkably different and appropriate voices.
As I listen to him read, I am amazed by the poetic music of the words as well as the flow of the story. Both my husband and I are listening together and frequently comment to each other, “Oh, isn’t this wonderful…doesn’t she write beautifully!”
I recommend this audio book and give it 5 stars..or more if it’s legal.
