Kirby Heyborne’s congenial performance is perfect for this diverting audiobook based on HRH Queen Elizabeth II’s rituals and routines for daily living. There is a liveliness and charming affability in Heyborne’s narration as he relays the 23 rules that have contributed to HRH Queen Elizabeth II’s longevity and well-being—and that make her surprisingly accessible to us non-royals. Heyborne’s intonation and tone are spot-on, capturing the British admiration for the monarchy and the Queen’s humorous but always calm and dignified pronouncements when there have been mishaps at events. Filled with titillating tidbits about the monarchy and observations on society, this delightful exploration of the Queen’s relatable rules for living with mindfulness, good manners, kindness, and humor is made all the more scintillating by Heyborne’s delightful narration.
