Good story; narrator is okay

I liked it overall, but the narrator constantly sounded like she was declaiming, like she was always on the radio. Real radio hosts don't talk like that, especially not when they're not on the air.

That said, she does have a lovely voice. I just wish that when the character says she's angry, she actually sounded angry.

Would you listen to Drink Deep again? Why?

I listen to the series fairly frequently.

How could the performance have been better?

Get a different narrator. Seriously. All the interrogatives are flat; no upswing on the intonation at the end of a question. And the mispronunciations... "supposably", "undoubtably", "Dar-eye-us" (it should "Dare-ee-us", and she got it right early on in the series), "doc-tor'-al", among other sins. All the men drawl, and her pauses at commas are just weird. It's like she doesn't pre-read her copy. It is, quite frankly, appalling. I can only assume she works really, really cheap. I'd be thrilled to rebuy the series if it was re-recorded by someone who can read the English language correctly.

Justine Eyre might be a perfectly decent narrator, but her English accent is atrocious and I must add my voice to the chorus saying "El-woz? What?"

I really wish this book could be re-recorded by Kate Reading. They did it with one of the Artemis Fowl books, when they used someone other than Nathaniel Parker. The backlash against the other narrator was so great (I assume) that they had Nathaniel Parker re-record the book.

Kate Reading is the voice of this series. Please let her be the voice of the *entire* series.
