"Great Story Bad reader"
I loved the book just like I loved all of the other ones in this series.
The only thing that drove me crazy is that the reader did not listen to any of the other books before she read this book, and she mispronounced some of the main titles.
I feel that if Audible is going to use different readers for a series they should at least make them listen to the first book so that even if the pronunciation is wrong in the first book at least that way the rest will be the same.
"the voice acting is lacking"
I havent listened to many audio books but have been to public readings. This voice acting was mostly flat or forced. bad work done on a good book
"Great story but crappy production"
Sadly the narrator is terrible. She mispronounces SO many words, even common everyday words. When she speaks in the characters voices she speaks haltingly like a robot. There is long pauses in the oddest spots and she miss speaks alot. All of which the director, producer and editor should have caught and fixed. If I were the author I'd be very angry about how they butchered my book.
