terrible narrator

it was very bad narrator, the story was ok slowing down the speed is essentially to even understand the narrator

Good story but hindered by narration

The story was read too quickly and mostly in a monotone that made it difficult for me to stay focused on it. I was disappointed and will be looking for another version by a different narrator.
