Review:
I recced this story
here at Epic Recs not too long ago, and the plot summary is there, but now I want to highlight the way erica_schall gives this a fabulous deadpan reading that makes the peasants and the goats, and everything really, that much funnier. It's magic, the way she voices the poor nervous villagers recounting their story for Arthur, and the way Arthur and Merlin behave toward one another. Her voice is low and clear, and she has great comic timing. It's the perfect podfic to listen to again and again when you want to laugh at a little sweetness and absurdity.
