Reviews
Poor Sound Quality
Scott
Unfortunately the sound quality in this book makes it almost impossible to listen too. There is a massive echo. It’s such a same, the sound quality of this recording has really let down what would otherwise be a wonderful reading.
Seldom Played
Honestly, I had heard about the reader for this book having an echo but it didn’t honestly bother me. I was able to hear everything in this text. He was a very able reader who didn’t struggle. He had a very good cadence. I found myself getting into this overly long book and I genuinely liked it.
