Disappointed

There is nothing that bothers me more, then changing out the narrator several books into a series. It’s like changing out a main character actor in a popular series that ruins the entire storyline. The second thing that I cannot stand is when corrections are made, or retakes if you will, but both the mistakes and the retakes are played one right after the other. The book has many corrections that were left in. I usually enjoy this author, and this series. But between the retakes and the subpar narration, it ruined the book for me.

Narration lacked a lot

I am not sure if it was because is was a new narrator, but it sounded more like AI and blah. Obviously the voices and name pronunciations were different ect. I am usually excited to hear more of the story with this series, but I was just trying to get through this one.

Lots of repeats

It seems that this book was rushed through editing. There are numerous repeats. Unusual for audible.

bad editing

they didn't spend much time editing this as there are many repetitive parts and the new guy say Jan's name wrong. good story though

A darker storyline than other books in the series

Kind of a darker storyline than the rest of the books. New narrator is not as good as Philip Sacramento but isn’t bad. Many of the books have lines that get repeated and this one had more than the rest. I don’t think it’s an issue with the book I think it’s a glitch in Audible.

Did not like change in narrator

Phillip Sacramento did a great job of creating unique voices for each character that really enhanced the story. This was my least favorite in the series simply due to the change in narration made it harder to follow who was speaking throughout.

Good story but the narration was poor

Jan is a very big Swedish man. Pronounced “Yahn” . Drove me nuts the entire book.

Poor narration with numerous mispronunciations

I have enjoyed the previous “Troy Stark” novels. This one is very disappointing. The editing was the worst I have ever heard. Sentences repeated throughout the story

Poor and unedited narration

I like the Troy Stark series. And I won’t pretend that I don’t understand at some level how all this stuff works when it comes to narration and contracts. But you hear a story and you associate the narrator‘s voice with the characters and then to change it up and add a new one who is not very good and the longer the book went, the more unedited part of the narrative existed. I didn’t use a credit for an audible book that was unedited. I was very, very, very, very disappointed in this book. I really like Troy Stark’s character. I just could not choke this one down.

Editing is Horrible and I Miss Philip Sacramento Narration

I miss the Philip Sacramento narration! After listening through the previous books in the series, changing the narrator is killing the book for me. Narrators who are new to a series should be required to at least listen to previous narration in that series. Mispronouncing names and places with regularity just makes this seem like it’s not a book in the series, but just a standalone for me. There’s no hard edge and accents are only partially attempted. And that’s a reflection on not only the narrator, but also the engineer and the production company who had to review this before publishing and thought it was good enough.

Every 10-15 minutes there are repeated lines that aren't edited out. The current narrator isn't to blame. It's the publisher for the audio version who deserves a zero star review.
