Review: Live from Medicine Park by Constance Squires, read by Tom Burka
Live from Medicine Park is a truly beautifully written story from best-selling and award-winning author Constance Squires and the audiobook version has been released in March 2020, almost three years after its original publication date.
I started listening to Live from Medicine Park without reading the Publisher’s Summary and I suggest that you do the same, as I consider that it gives away to much about the plot. All that you need to know is that Live from Medicine Park follows a some really interesting characters. Ray Wheeler is a filmmaker specializing in documentaries who agrees, reluctantly, to shoot the comeback concert of Lena Wells, an iconic rock-and-roll singer who hit it big in the ’70s. But, can they both pull of such a feat, as the singer was at the top of her game almost two decades ago? As if this wasn’t enough, new characters are introduced and things get complicated fast…
The audiobook is brought to life by actor, voice-over artist, narrator, blogger and writer Tom Burka who manages to deliver a great performance. With his voice, cadence and reading style reminiscent of those of the great audiobook industry’s legendary Richard Ferrone, Tom Burka was a very inspired choice for this recording.
Sometimes funny, other times tragic, but always entertaining, Live from Medicine Park by Constance Squires was already a great book and now it’s even better as an audiobook, thanks to the talent and passion of its narrator! With lifelike characters, vivid locations and a writing style that perfectly mimics non-fiction, this production will appeal to both fans of music and of documentaries alike.
I also post reviews or articles at the author, narrator or publisher’s request, so, if you are in need of assistance in finding the perfect narrator for your book or just want to have a review on my blog, do get in touch.
