REVIEW: This collection was very good. I enjoy any stories involving the Barclay´s. Also, the introduction of Jason Whittaker. Somehow, the stories involving with Jason are pretty good. He brings in adventure and also a perspectives that young adults and grown up´s can get into. I really enjoyed "Unto Us a Child is Born", an AIO Christmas story. Very good!!¤

2) Audio CD Book Changing Times (Adventures in Odyssey) by Tommy Nelson. This is the first full set that take place after Whit took off to the Middle East (in real life, Hal Smith, the voice of Whit, had died. About 2 years later they found Paul Herlinger to carry on the character). There was apparently some fear that the show would fall apart. However, it seems that the writers were stretched creatively, and the result is a great set of episodes. Possibly the most notable is the 2-part "A Name, Not a Number" where Whit´s son Jason moves to Odyssey to help run Whit´s shop. It covers Jason´s life in Government Intelligence, and how it follows him to Odyssey. We also meet Jack Allen (voiced by Mr. Ed´s Allen Young), and old friend of Whit who has moved to Odyssey to help run Whit´s End. Also, Tom Riley decides to run for mayor, but runs into opposition from mysterious means. There´s a LOT to like in this one, and for long-time listers, it sets the stage for a lot more in future shows.¤
