A Winter Dream

By: Richard Paul Evans

Narrated by: Fred Berman

From wonderful storyteller and author of the best-selling phenomenon The Christmas Box, a new holiday novel based on the story of Joseph and the coat of many colors.

Joe is forced out of the family business by his jealous siblings. Moving on to another company, he soon becomes chief advisor to the CEO. But when the economy turns, Joe's siblings need his help to save the family business.

Based on the Old Testament story about Joseph and the coat of many colors and including a love story, A Winter Dream can be embraced for its message of forgiveness by believers and nonbelievers alike.

Fantastic Story

What made the experience of listening to A Winter Dream the most enjoyable?

I was drawn to the fact that this story was based on a biblical story.

What other book might you compare A Winter Dream to and why?

I don't compare books to one another because I like to enjoy each one and the gifts it bestows.

What about Fred Berman’s performance did you like?

Great performance!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, this was a great story.

Any additional comments?

My only suggestion would be that it is not necessary to begin the narrative by explaining the story of Joseph from the Bible. Giving out that information at the beginning removes the anticipation of the reader since we already know how it will end.

A good interpretation of a biblical story

Well written and performed. The writer is very creative in being able to take a classic bible story and relate it to present day. I highly recommend it.

Excellent Listen.

Winter Garden by Kristen Hannah

Have you listened to any of Fred Berman’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Not that I can remember.

If you could take any character from A Winter Dream out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Probably each of them at different times - only because I feel everyone at one time or another finds themselves experiencing similar situations ( falling on either side.)

I couldn't stop listening

Any additional comments?

no

Too predictive

Given the story is written after the biblical story, but any reader knew what would happen before the event. Maybe if you don’t know the Bible, it might be better, but I was disappointed in this book. Way too predictive.

Great book

Nothing not to like. Narration is spot on. Story pulls you in immediately. Interesting characters.
