From AudioFile
In the first book in this trilogy, narrator Paul Michael's depiction of Robert, Maggie, and 8-year-old Nathan captures the tension and pathos of Maggie's impending death from cancer. Michael's stellar performance of Nathan's purchase of shoes for his mother to meet Jesus in is captivating. In the second book, narrator Oliver Wyman continues Nathan's story--he is now a third-year medical student--with a compelling narration that matches voice to mood. In the third book, Donna VanLiere and Oliver Wyman portray a warm family story of loss and renewed hope when a couple spends Christmas with Emily, a special 5-year-old. The two narrators capture the couple's tension and Emily's joy in an especially believable performance. This exceptional set is an enjoyable Christmas selection.
