Good storyline, poor narration

The storyline is good, not great. This is early Timmothy Zahn material, so it has promise, but not his best work. The narrator leaves a great deal to be desired. Kyle Tait is monotone, choppy and somewhat boring in his delivery. Very little voice inflection and very little difference between characters when he's reading. Hard to stay awake at times.
