Writing a story is a craft, but so is reading a story out loud. It’s a performance of a single voice that must engage the reader and hold them. Chris Devon does this; he’s a terrific narrator and reader of stories.

Being read to can be one of the simplest, yet one of the greatest pleasures there is. But reading a book aloud in a way that keeps listeners engaged from beginning to end is as difficult a balancing act as writing one. As a narrator, Chris brings great care for his craft along with a sharp ear for detail and a vivid sense of character – not to mention boundless enthusiasm. It’s a combination that can lift words off the page and give them life in ways even the author never quite expected: a kind of real-life magic.
