Unsure how to rate this

I thought these stories were lackluster until I heard the narrator butcher my favorite short story of all time (Aftermaths by Lois McMaster Bujold). I don't know how the narrator can make such a mess and still get paid. First he pronounced McCaster not McMaster. He made other story name pronunciations inconsistent with any other reader of her stories. most importantly, he drained the life out of it. I barely wanted to finish the story even though I love the original. So then I wondered maybe the rest of these stories are actually quite good and he just butchered them all similarly.

Stories OK, Narration awful

The stories were alright, some I had read before, some not. But who hired the narrator and did no one listen to it before it was published. Not only does he not know how to pronounce Barrayar but he mispronounced Lois McMaster Bujolds name multie times, kept saying McCaster. Very disappointing in both the publisher and narrator, ruined that story for me.
