Publisher's Summary:
What is difference?
Is it in how we speak,
How we look,
Or how we see the world?
Is it the color of our eyes,
The swing of our walk,
Or the very essence of
Our minds?
Whatever it is,
Maybe we should embrace it
Rather than wanting to
Run away
Or kill it.
Next time there is
Difference
Think,
What about me?
How do they see me?
Do I care?
Should I care?
What, in the end, do
We need but
Love
And
Acceptance?
Regardless of change.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
This audiobook is extremely short. The entire thing only lasts twenty-one minutes, but those twenty-one minutes pack in a lot of story.
Thomas is an odd child. He has always been this way. Then, one night at the age of seven, he experiences something that affects him in a very strange way.
This event not only makes him seem even weirder than he had before, but it also alters him physically.
What happened that night? How does a seven year old wake up in the middle of a forest with no memory of how he got there?
The answers to those questions will affect not only Thomas, but the rest of humanity.
I enjoyed listening to this audiobook and was surprised to find out that it is narrator Phil Mayes first professional narration. He did a wonderful job in voicing not only the children's voices but also as the voice of the third-party storyteller. He speaks clearly and is easily understood which is important for the listener. I rate the narration as 5 out of 5 stars.
The only thing I disliked about this audiobook was the story's ending. I felt that it could have been wrapped up in a much neater fashion. I assume that the author left the story unfinished for a reason. I understand that this tactic leaves the listener able to speculate on the various outcomes for the story and it's characters. But, to me this audiobook actually seemed like it was the opening chapter for a novel and that the listener was left 'hanging' just as the story seemed about to get even more interesting.
With that said, if author Julie Elizabeth Powell ever decides to turn this story into a full-length novel, I would be very interested in reading it. It is for that reason that I rate "Three Into One" as 4 out of 5 stars.
~ I received a free copy of this audiobook from the narrator in exchange for an honest review.
Drew me in & left me wanting more
Thomas has always been odd. But then one day when he was nearly 7 years old something mysterious happens. He doesnt recall how he ended up in that forest. Things got odder afterwards, like all of Thomass hair falling out. Thomas keeps his secret of that night, what little he can remember. Meanwhile, Chris is also odd, her red hair going grey way too early and her long arms that folks cant help but notice. As with Thomas, this oddness came over her all at once just before her 7th birthday. She has vague memories of that strange night in the woods. Then there is Zach, who recalls seeing the other two in the woods that night. Now, 50 years later, the Event is nearly upon them, something that could affect all of Earth.
This was an interesting little bit of fiction.
