This book is unlistenable

This is the worst audio book I've ever bought. I don't know if there's a problem with the text as well, but the AI narration is horrible. It can't decide on whether Cherokee is pronounced CHAIR-o-kee, or chair-OH-kee. "Cherokee syllabary" is pronouced "Cherokee syllable". There are passages like - "Hunting in this region required special techniques as there was no snow that slowed down the speeds of deer. Many of the hunters perfected the calls to attract the frogs and keep them away from their weapons." (Forests and Soutwest).
So, I'll be returning this book.
