Narrator is a miss

I have to say, I was really looking forward to this book, the topic of actual risk management is undeserved, so I was anxious to get this book. However I'm disappointed. The choice of narrator was a mistake in my opinion. He doesn't speak clearly and has poor pronunciation. I find him difficult and unpleasant to listen to. If I was an author of an audio book I would listen to the end product before releasing it and have it redone if it came out like this. It's probably a good book but I can't stand listening to it. Regarding the content, i'm only in chapter one, but so far it reads more like security best practices than the finer points of actual risk management work. I'd like to see a re-release of the book with a different narrator, maybe then I could get further into it. Bummer.
