Love the story as always, but..

The sound effects are overwhelming and ultimately very distracting from the narrator and other performers. The rage goes to high and loud as to be uncomfortable (because the narration is eclipsed by the FX)

Go get the regular audiobook, I wish I could refund this one.

Love Brent Weeks !! Its been a while

Great Dramatization Part 1 went by in a blink. Only regret is I didnt save it fer a roadtrip.

the music can overpower the dialog sometimes

I love the story, however the sound engineer didn't balance out the music and sound effects with the dialog very well. Sometimes I couldn't, or struggled to, hear the narrative.

Chill on the SFX

Good story overall, good performance.
But maybe avoid having the sounds of pigs squealing be louder than the narrator for an entire chapter…

the damn music

lower the volume of the music and tell the narrator to slow tf down. the music is constantly blasting and the narrator is speed reading through one of my favorite stories.
