About this listen

Dick Francis has written 36 best selling novels, one autobiography, and one biography. With Field of 13, he turns his hand to the short story. The settings range from the national Hunt at Cheltenham, where a middle-aged owner falls in love with her jockey, to the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, where demon drink and wilting willpower take their toll.

found some endings flat, bit I must admit I'm not keen on short stories

Disappointing

I’ve always enjoyed Dick Francis books, it’s been a long time since I’d read this one and I wanted something to listen to while driving. These stories really haven’t aged too badly and kept me interested and engaged. I have all his (and his son’s) books on my kindle but I’ll definitely be getting some more on audible for long car journeys.

Very entertaining short stories

I love Dick Francis's books , however this is the first one with short stories have 'read'. All different and all rounded, complete little stories in their own right. The narration by Tony Britton was first class.

Good.
