Too fast

The reader does not seem to breath, it is hard to know when a story starts and when another ends, specially because theres more than one story for one myth.

But for the narrator.. it would have been a 4

I have listened to two hours of it. Fortunately I also have the physical book, but if I want to walk around listening to it, it is impossible. The narrator, whom I usually like, is rushing through each section. it is as if the file is compressed to take out every little bitty pause. Impossible to tolerate. Sorry I wasted my credit on it.

Bad Narrator.

I don't know what the narrator was thinking. She rushes through each story barely breathing. Must have had a time limit.

Finally, "read," another great classic

The reader is a little slow for my taste, but I listen to all of my audiobooks sped up so that's very much my own opinion. The story was great and I'm glad I've finally experienced this great work.
