Publisher's Summary:
Ghosts get stuck sometimes.
Franklin helps them move from this world to the next. Sometimes that means giving a ghost a ride so they can confront their killer. Other times, it means listening to the wind in his fields and the trucks blowing down the interstate and hearing the songs a ghost needs to sing.
Generally, Franklin happily does whatever a ghost needs. It's his duty.
Then Gloria shows up. She wants Franklin to steal the crop of his rival, Karl - they compete every year at the Kentucky State Fair for the blue ribbon prize for who grows the best popping corn.
Franklin's no thief. His mama taught him better.
But something else is out there, hiding in the fields. Something much worse than a ghost.
A creature that's not interested in stealing crops, but in taking people's lives and powers.
A thing that Franklin and his family must stop.

Entertaining
This was a good story with a steady pace and a few scary moments. The narrator did an excellent job with the voices. I would not have chosen the way the main character spoke but I suppose that was how the author intended it to be. Other than that it was entertaining.

It was a interesting story
I felt the narrator did Not do the story justice, his voice was just to boring and I nearly fell asleep several times because of that.
I believe with the right narrator this story could have really poped.
The Popcorn Thief
Any additional comments?
The Popcorn Thief,narrated brilliantly by Michael Gilboe,is an interesting story of a man obsessed with his popcorn crop.This man and many of his 'kin' have special abilities,like seeing ghosts,or spirits...which we learn are NOT the same thing.Franklin is in a popcorn rivalry with a neighbor and his ghost friends are not making it any easier.People are turning up dead and poor Franklin gets framed...by ghosts.Will he be able to prove he's innocent?Give a listen and find out!"I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast or MalarHouse dot com"

Although there are just enough scary things to prickle the back of your neck, this is a gentle and charming fantasy. The author, wisely, does not revel in the horrific. Instead, she treats the supernatural in a down-home, accepting and almost casual way. Some folks are special.
