Euan Morton’s narration adds a layer of depth that elevates this already entertaining story. His portrayal of the squirrel protagonist, Pocket, is both mischievous and sympathetic, making for a compelling lead character. The pacing is tight, with enough suspense to keep you on edge—especially during the thrilling chase sequences. However, some of the historical references may be lost in translation, as they require a bit more explanation. Overall, ‘Shakespeare for Squirrels’ is a must-listen for those who enjoy literary mysteries with a twist of humor and intrigue.
