| Things aren't quite right in Odyssey, and no one can quite put their finger on why. Novacom, the new company in town, seems to want to fit in and make its new neighbors happy. Mitch, their new P.R. man, certainly strikes Connie's fancy. And Whit has a great opportunity to reach out to Connellsville when he's offered a chance to open a second Whit's End there. But there's plenty of time for fun, too, as Alex must try to get some cookies past Rodney to his grandmother. And there's the mystery of the broken window. Plus Edwin Blackgaard has to deal with daily life without Shakespeare when the assistant breaks a leg. This collection feels like a return to the fun of the old stories. I love having some kind of ongoing story that advances a little at a time, but I also enjoy the stand-alone stories. This collection has a good mix of both. It's also nice to see the same kids in enough stories to watch them develop. I'm really starting to like the current crop. Having listened to Adventures in Odyssey since it started, I'm glad to see a return to the kind of story telling that hooked me as a kid. Hopefully, they can keep this going for years to come. |
