Great story but some odd narration choices

While the narration of Fox is quite good, but Finn’s sometimes comes across as rushed. The narrator does a decent job of bringing Finn and Fox to life but there were some weird choices for some of the secondary town folk characters, the worst being the way every female character comes out sounding like they’re all old women.

I enjoyed seeing the story through the narrator’s inflections and contribution to the story.
