Editor reviews

Narrator Marcie Millard provides a straight-faced performance that enhances the humor and sometimes-surreal extravagance of this comedy. Principia Martindale is a fervent Christian who finds herself assigned to spread God's word to a tiny Texas ghost town with a population of 15. Principia sets up in the town's ruined church and soon begins to perform miracles at the Shrine, a screen door where the image of Christ appears at sunset. Principia is pushy and assertive, but Millard keeps listeners on her side, especially as Principia begins to form a very non-spiritual bond with a charming ex-seminarian. Listeners will also find the variations on the Texas accent that Millard deploys for the different characters a delight.
