GAMES CREATURES PLAY

It isn't everyday that an audio collection of stories is this consistently strong, and its narrators so unfailingly compelling. Listeners will find tales of games and competitions of all kinds--from hide-and-seek to roller derby--played by the most fantastic of paranormal characters. Todd Haberkorn and Kate Rudd bring each of these zany, occasionally spine-tingling, and wildly creative tales to life. The range of characters is enormous, and the settings varied. Both narrators handle each tale with aplomb, creating personalities that are unique, building suspense, and reveling in each detailed description. Their energy and humor keep the plot quick and engrossing, and it's clear throughout that they're enjoying themselves as much as listeners surely will.
