Wirt's writing here is interesting. Her 'Nancy Drew' books were well plotted for a young readership. FLASH EVANS does for boys what Nancy did for girls. The story holds up pretty well over time. Maybe 3.5 stars for the words. Sadly, the audio isn't up to the book. Odd frequent pauses suggest maybe voice-activated recording. The recording is disappointing, but if one can stay with it, the tale is like the radio serials for kids in the 1930s-'40s.

The recording and reading is absolutely horrible!!!!!! I couldn’t even listen to most of it to give a proper review which is a shame ๐ I hope someone re-records this and with a better more experienced reader for the voice.
