Virtual voice 2.5 and story 3.5

The narration sounds like a virtual voice. The tonal quality and expression are not too bad, actually, but the narration doesn’t add anything to the story experience. It is tolerable, not annoying, and allows readers to finish the story while doing other things. The female protagonist’s name is “Sabine” which pronounced as a German name, is Suh-BEA-nuh. The virtual voice pronounces it two or three different ways throughout the book. As a Kindle Unlimited subscriber, I like this option. However, the virtual voice is NOT a fitting replacement for a real, human voice actor. A human being adds interpretation and emotions to the story which is clearly lacking here.

As for the story, it is typical Jan Thompson. It is filled with scripture and meant to edify as well as entertain. The females are cool towards males, emotionally detached, and play hard to get. The males have different issues which are resolved through the books. Thompson resolves issues through Biblical ideals.
