RISE OF THE JUMBIES The Jumbies, Book 2

Narrator Robin Miles replicates her stunning performance in this sequel to THE JUMBIES, but new listeners will be just as enthralled by this dark fairy tale set in the Caribbean. Shunned on her small island for her recently revealed part-jumbie heritage, Corinne bravely offers to help when several children go missing. Suspecting that the jumbies are at work, Corinne goes under the sea on a dangerous quest to consult Mama D'Leau, the queen of water, for help. Miles's deep, rich voice and French-Caribbean accent are perfect for the imperious and conniving Mama D'Leau. Miles is equally effective using a wide variety of voices and dialects for a fascinating array of characters, including mermaids, jumbies, children, and adults with diverse cultural backgrounds.
