Praise for The Last Coon Hunter, Book I of the Ryland Creek Saga, 5th Anniversary Ed, the audiobook:
Special note: The Last Coon Hunter, 5th Anniversary Edition won Second Place in the 2022 New York State Outdoor Writers Association Excellence in Craft award--Television, Radio, Video, and Audio category.
Listener Reviews:
The Last Coon Hunter is a touching story revolving around the lifestyle of a widowed father, his two sons, and their beloved coon hounds. Their lives intertwine with other good folks from the Painted Post area, a few unsavory characters, and even the supernatural to weave a pleasant and sometimes sad tale of an era gone by.
In this audio book, the narrator brought to life numerous personalities with clarity and nuance. You would swear there was more than one voice actor! Wayne Thompson’s depth of vocal talent infused and complimented the story’s setting and nostalgic quality.
I purchased, read, and enjoyed the print version of this book a few years ago. The new fifth anniversary addition has improved the story, although it’s challenging to pinpoint where the author made changes.
Combined with the narrator’s soothing tone, this audio book was a balm to the soul to unwind from reality and “step” into the woods of Painted Post. I hear there is magic there if you know where to look.

From Wayne Thompson, the voice actor for both The Last Coon Hunter (Fifth Anniversary Edition) (TLCH) and An Exceptional Hound: Book II of the Ryland Creek Saga:
Before I sign off on this little note, I want to say something personal to you. I auditioned for TLCH [The Last Coon Hunter] specifically because the audition scene was wholesome, gentle, and beautifully written. Young love burst through the page, and the charm and tenderness with which you told the tale made me unable not to read the script in hopes that I might do it some justice. My great hope is still that I have done your exceptional work justice. Your tales are far more than homespun yarns, they are very deep and endearing lessons on and about life, both its simple joys and it gut wrenching sorrows. You are a master! I am honored to have read them . . .
