Goose bumps are traveling up and down my arms and spine. Amarok, that was gorgeous! You have a beautiful reading voice; the pacing was superb and the story riveting. I brought my computer down with me to listen to this as I was eating supper, but it was so softly read, it required headphones to hear it and I ended up so caught by the beauty of the story and your reading, I quit eating so I could concentrate on just listening. I found your German accented English lovely to listen to as well! This is one I will listen to again and again. I'm so glad you decided to do this!
What exquisite handling of Aragorn's healing of Faramir! Aragorn's quiet urgency as he feels himself beginning to fade, Faramir's gentle resistance and his heart-rending initial desire to move on, are so evocative, the emotions so beautifully understated, but yet, sooooo intense. Mmmmm delicious for both the ear and the heart.
It's been such a fun advenuture both making and listening to these. I hope Michelle's legacy will continue to bring stories and readers like this to the podfic format!
