Reviews
This story is a HOOT!
mikezane
The guy shoots the cat and misses, hitting another guy, who sues another guy who punishes his son for shooting the first guy... oh what a tangle! Mark does an excellent job as always with his recordings and voices. Thanks!
Clever story

Well read, fun listen - thanks!
Amusing and witty story
Marcus Söderlund
I enjoy Mark Smiths reading, he has an excellent style of acting the characters, and unlike most professional audio book readers, without annoying mannerisms or overacting. However, I could not help but imagine Jar-Jar Binks when he was acting the man who got shot! The story is very amusing and well worth the time. Recommended!
Delightful
