Missing relevant navigation

Good narration. The navigation of the read was clunky. Please add a pdf that outlines what each chapter
contains. Bonus points for time references for easier navigation.


Actually loved the summary at the end of the book, but
Found I really wanted that information at the start of each book, rather than receive it at the end.

Needs Titles

Unfortunately, this Audible lists chapters as Chapter 1, 2 etc, but because of the content, they REALLY need to put the book titles in with the chapter numbers. As it is now, finding books is a mess.

Please Label the Books

The various books in this compilation are just designated as numerical chapters rather than Nominally Titled
