Great story but it gives me butterflies and no different voices for different people. You will probably get butterflies but it will be worth it.

Intense Atmosphere

Seems like a good story, but I can't get on with the monotonous, dispassionate reader with her interminable pauses. Please, for the love of literature, put some feeling into it.

Ruined by lacklustre reading

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
A magical story which unfolds its imagination, as a tree which walks and a gateway to heaven, at every fold the story rates a new turn.

Extraordinary
