The Shortstop

Good story

We liked the Story.

Excellent. Typical Zane Gray; short, upbeat, Americana.

Good book and storyline

This is a typical story of its time. Be aware that there is some use of the "N" word and other racial slurs. But a good baseball story if you can get past those issues. Does give a fair assessment of the way players would move up to the majors. I heard very little differences in the voices but overall I really liked the way Rowdy Delany read the book. What drives me crazy, even though I understand it, is the LibriVox announcement before every chapter. You just have to get past that and not let it interfere with the story.

I have listened to mainly male readers as they seem to do female voices better women doing male voices. However Rowdy Delaney does an excellent job of reading this book and she has proved me wrong. She kept my attention and just had a nice flow of words that made this book really easy to listen. I would listen to another by her if offered.

I enjoyed the book

Women narrators should ONLY read titles authored by women. Zane Grey must be rolling in his grave!
