Deliver Us From Evil
David Baldacci
Read by Ron McLarty
Ron McLarty comfortably handles the diverse accents and speech rhythms required to establish identifiable characters of both genders. Several characters in this thriller are making repeat appearances from the recent novel The Whole Truth. McLarty's command of pace and clarity of delivery allow the listener to navigate the challenges of following two separate investigations while also untangling the pathology of a war criminal and terrorist. McLarty’s subtle emotional intensity is particularly compelling as he presents horrifying scenes without theatrics.

Season Of Gifts
Richard Peck
Read by Ron McLarty
Grandma Dowdel is back! She's up to her old tricks of bestowing her "gifts" upon the unsuspecting, this time her new neighbors, a young minister and his family. Peck’s story portrays life in a small American town in 1958. Ron McLarty’s pacing, cadence, and tone fit the setting and characters perfectly. McLarty saves the best for Grandma Dowdel. His rich, gravelly, no-nonsense vocalization carries her all-knowing sagacity and wry sense of humor. Once again, we fear not for our young protagonist or his family because Grandma Dowdel is there. McLarty knows we are relying on Grandma Dowdel to work her quiet magic, and his delivery reassures us that she will. Peck has treated readers to another literary gift, and McLarty reads it with aplomb. J.K.R. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2009]
Many authors read their own books. But with Traveler, there's a sweet twist. Author Ron McLarty is an established actor and audio narrator. But thanks to Stephen King, McLarty is now a published novelist. In 2003, King wrote a glowing review in Entertainment Weekly of McLarty's unpublished novel, The Memory of Running, which King had heard on audio.
Publishers took notice, and now McLarty has released his second novel, Traveler. It is a wistful depiction of East Providence, RI, in the 1960's, a gritty Italian/Irish/Portuguese neighborhood. The narrator in the novel, Jono Riley, is a New York City actor/bartender who returns home after he receives a letter about the death of his first love.
