Great Story! Love it!

I was looking for a nice fantasy story that was interesting, funny and without a lot of obnoxious screaming, and so far, this is it! Thanks and keep at it!

Great, Quick Listen

I've only listened to the first few episodes of The Prickwillow Papers, and I must say that it hooked me from the get-go. Maddy's voice acting is superb, the audio editing is excellent, the writing is great, and I absolutely related to and loved Sylda right from episode 1.

Definitely recommend this fantasy audio drama!

Excellent Story

I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. The setting, the characters and the humor is delivered with laser precision. What a great bit of entertainment!
