About This Audiobook

The Rose Round is a captivating tale that weaves together a young boy's coming-of-age story with the enigmatic secrets of a crumbling mansion. Matt, our 13-year-old protagonist, finds himself in the midst of a family drama that's as tangled as the overgrown rosebushes surrounding Woodhall. John Paton's narration brings a refreshing energy to the story, capturing Matt's youthful curiosity and exasperation with his spirited step-sister, Caroline. The audiobook's distinctive charm lies in its ability to blend the mundane squabbles of family life with the eerie atmosphere of a haunted house, creating a unique listening experience that's equal parts cozy and chilling.

Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

As an audiobook listener, I've always been drawn to stories that can transport me to another world, and The Rose Round certainly delivers. John Paton's narration is a standout feature, bringing a lively dynamism to each character that makes them feel real and relatable. His ability to switch between the voices of Matt, Caroline, and the other eccentric inhabitants of Woodhall is impressive, making it easy to follow the story even as it shifts between perspectives. The pacing is steady, allowing the tension to build gradually like a slow-burning mystery. However, I found the resolution of some plot threads a bit too neat, which slightly detracted from the overall impact. Despite this, The Rose Round is a compelling listen that's perfect for anyone looking for a story that combines the warmth of a family drama with the thrill of a ghostly mystery.
