A Great Flight Comfort.

This was a great read that I got to listen to. The story is a decent story and the audio is exceptional. Anthony Soto has a voice that is serene and inviting. His narration paints the world as a beautiful picture.

Time travelling with a strong villian

Disclaimer: I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. I really liked the book's opening, I think the main villain character is quite interesting, and there were a lot to find out about the character, which was what drawn me to the book. But personally, I think it would be better to read the book than listen to the audiobook because it gets quite confusing after a while. There are many characters and many eras, different worlds to explore and they are tied together but it is very hard to keep track of all the characters and the worlds. Which is a pity, because I do like some of the characters and I think they are pretty brilliantly written, but at the same time there are also characters that seemed to be rushed, or the need to keep them a 'mystery' made them quite insignificant and cliche. Still I think that will eventually be resolved as the story proceeds. Narration by Anthony Soto was quite good. He had a good grasp on the characters and expresses their emotions quite well. I did notice that there are some parts where there are white noise, that is a little distracting at times but might not be obvious to most.

Couldn't finish it

I was given this review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. The narrators voice isn’t bad, but you it sounds like he’s reading the book rather than narrating a story and it sounds like he recorded it on his home computer, no production at all. I thought this book was bad, it really didn’t make much sense to me, it was too hard to follow unless you were paying close attention. There was too much jumping around in “time” in the book. I couldn't finish it and don’t recommend it.
