Reviews

Difficult to understand


(2.5 stars)

Would enjoy this book but the narrator regular mumbles words to the point of not being able to follow text. What a shame after al her hard work.

The narration...


(1 stars)

The single problem with this audiobook is the narrator; fails to pronounce words clearly, rushing through the text, sounding bored, lack of intonation...etc...etc. A work like this deserves much better and has been totally ruined by the careless narration. What a shame... a total shame.

Inspiring


(5 stars)

The narrator has a beautiful voice and great delivery. I would agree with others that it would be helpful to slow down and enunciate the words a bit more. Otherwise an excellent job.

The reader was heavenly too.


(5 stars)

So lovely, very joy giving. It is inspiring to listen and learn about the wonderful saints who went before us and how they lived. Thank you!

ok


(3 stars)

Woman reader is pretty good. I do think that she could enunciate and inflect more as it words run into other words obscuring the meaning.


(5 stars)

A wonderful edition of a classic book.
