![]() ![]() Overall I'd say it was a pretty decent short listen and it makes a really good fist at providing an accessible way to enjoy this classic horror story. With all that going on it would have been easy for the voices to get lost a little but they remained crystal clear throughout. To my ears the sound was beautifully mastered because there are multiple voices, lots of music and a plethora of sound effects including some nice bass-laden thunder. Given the classical form I think that the cast do an excellent job with it. As such its translation to an audio play means that it did seem to jump around a little and anyone new to the story might find it a little harder to follow. As a novel Something Wicked This Way Comes was fairly light on dialogue and heavy on quite heavy prose. The story thus examines themes of maturity and aging, concentrating on the cusp between childhood and adulthood. It tells the story of two friends, Jim Nightshade and Will Halloway, who are thirteen and yearn to be older. As such it's a reasonably accessible way either to re-visit the story or even hear it for the first time. Something Wicked This Way Comes is one of Ray Bradbury s most popular works. This audio play has kept faith with the original book released some 55 years ago.
