Review: On Riverton Road by Jesse Elison, read by Andrew Eiden
On Riverton Road is the first literary novel and second book from new, rising author Jesse Elison. Just recently released in audiobook format, the story follows Dean Stamper, an old bull riding champion who returns from his retirement in order to ride the greatest bucking bull ever.
On Riverton Road is clearly inspired by events in the author’s life, as he grew up is a rodeo family an followed his older bull riding brothers around small towns throughout the Western United States. Thus, I especially appreciated the authenticity of this adventure.
Written with care and talent, On Riverton Road is a slow burn that offers the listener an inside look into a way of life that the most of us know almost close to nothing about. The plot is driven by a relatable character that is just like us, flawed and human. I appreciated the vivid memories that are popping to life in the reader’s mind.
The audiobook version of On Riverton Road is expertly narrated by award-winning voice actor Andrew Eiden. He reads in a relaxed and soothing cadence, perfectly capturing the atmosphere of this modern western, while at the same time managing to create a high level of immersion for those listening to the audio production.
Andrew Eiden‘s performance makes this already interesting modern western an even more captivating narrative experience. If you have 9 free hours on your hand, don’t hesitate to give On Riverton Road a try.
