Favorite one by far

I love this story from start to finish. favorite character is Ray, because of what she goes through and how she handles everything; it is amazing.

I have listened to and read this story multiple times; I love it! In my opinion, the narration was on point.

Terrible Narrator

Would you try another book from Meghan O'Brien and/or Amanda Goodyear?

I would like to continue listening/reading Meghan O'Brien's books, but I really don't think I could tolerate listening to this narrator.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

She actually detracted from the story. I felt like her voice was very grating and I often was pulled from the story because I was so distracted.

Was Battle Scars worth the listening time?

I did enjoy the story but the narration was awful.

Horrible voice

I love this story but the voice butchered it completely. I was so disappointed. Shame

Terrible Narration!

Narrator is just awful. Story lacks good conversation between main characters but the premise of the story is fantastic!

potentially a great listen

Ok the story was sound. The narrator had a decent enough voice and that's where it ends; no concept on how to tell the story or how to portray the characters at all.
