Brilliant !
Avid listener
Love this, 3rd time of listening and almost feel as though I'm travelling with them. The narrator is brilliant with accents and moods of the different characters. Well done and thank you. I'm fascinated with anything to do with the gold rush era and would appreciate any recommendations (that's if I haven't already read/listened to them all)
worth a listen
