"Exceptional story."
Wonderful story in every way. I couldn't wait to listen to it every day. Narrator was excellent and used many different accents. Will get more of this author.
"Story good, narrator not as good."
Good story without the usual bad language. Interesting characters and easy to listen to & follow even when doing something else at the same time. The only negative was the narrator. Although she reads with many different voices, her natural voice was distracting for me.
