Oxen and Morons

A Wonderful Week for a Quest, Book II

By: Michael Young

Narrated by: Kevin Perkins

The first musical quest was only the beginning! Waking up with a taco hangover after celebrating their last win, Bellissimo realizes there's more to the Uppercase prophecy than they thought, and this part deals with her! With Sir Roderick at her side, she must defeat the Beandom's four fearsome Oxymorons: the Little Giant, the Jumbo Shrimp, the Living Dead, and the Moronic Ox. Success will bring them to the mythical One Bean and the Treasure of Ages, but can she succeed, working with a man with an ego bigger than Mount Ominous? More than treasure, she hopes to obtain the greatest gift of all: the ability to sleep in whenever she wants.

What a Blast! Hilarious!

Bellissimo and Sir Roderick are off on a quest! They must solve the Uppercase prophecy and part 2 is centered around Bellissimo! The two, aided by a couple of friends, must defeat the four fearsome Oxymorons! Clues are found in their encounters with the Little Giant, the Jumbo Shrimp, the Living Dead, and the Moronic Ox. If Bellissimo can solve this part, she can obtain the Treasure of Ages!

The author, Michael Young, crafts a magical narrative that is action-filled, fun, and captivating! Each character is deliberately woven into the storyline. The dialogue is entertaining, capturing the essence of each character and their purpose, and keeps the narrative moving quickly.

The narrator, Kevin Perkins, continues to amaze me! He effortlessly transitions between male and female characters, giving each a distinct, consistent voice throughout the narrative. I've enjoyed his work for years, but only now realize the full extent of his talent. His vocal range is impressive, with female voices as skillfully rendered as the male ones.

This is one of those rare finds that bring a smile to your face as you listen to the highly talented Kevin Perkins and enjoy the delightful fun created by Michael Young! Together they bring this book to life!

Amusing

Received from Originstoryapp.

As the title says this is a rather amusing book. The story is simple and has odd developments which makes this a great story for young readers.

I was happy with the ending and the extra short stories at the end were also amusing to hear.

I was amazed at the versatility of Keven Perkins' narration. His performance was a joy to listen to and added to my enjoyment of the story. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.
