I Absolutely Loved This!!!!!

This was an amazing story that had so many twists and turns and was performed excellently!!

Very interesting and informative book!

I originally bought this book in paperback form for our daughter to read and she never read it, so I listened to it. I found it to be fascinating and interesting to read about the history of the Middle East. The beginning was a bit slow, but picked up and held my attention until the end.

I could not get the right speed on this one.

Unfortunately, the narrator's voice came through extremely slow and monotonous at 1.0 and sounded odd at any other speed. I really couldn't handle it.

awful

sounds like a robot. i can't even listen to it. only made it 5 minutes. i have no idea what story is so i can't rate that

😴

It was very slow. 😐 Even when I sped it up it was very slow.
