Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

The narration in 'The Chicken Runs at Midnight' is nothing short of exceptional. Mark Schlicher brings the urgency of game seven to life, while Ben Holland’s calm and reassuring voice provides a perfect counterbalance during moments of reflection. The transition between these two narrators feels seamless and enhances the emotional range of the story. I found myself captivated by the vivid descriptions of the 1992 Pirates’ season and equally moved by the later parts that delve into personal tragedies and miracles. While some pacing issues can occasionally disrupt the flow, the overall production quality is top-notch. It’s a must-listen for anyone who appreciates well-told true stories with a spiritual twist.
