Wonderfully narrated.

I loved the narrator and the stories are fascinating. As a person who's family is originally from Scotland, it was a great way to feel connected to some tales that my kin may have also heard.

Not stories

Due to the title, I expected this to be stories instead, it was analyzing stories and it was not interesting to me. I wanted to hear the old stories.
