Isn’t there a Hawaiian narrator that could’ve done this?

Isn’t there a Hawaiian narrator that could’ve done this?
Revisado: 10-11-23
I am Hawaiian, so these stories are especially meaningful to me. While the narrator makes a good effort, the mispronunciation of the Hawaiian language really disappoints. The way he says “Ka’iulani” in particular was horrible, this iconic and beloved last princess of the Kingdom of Hawaii is one known to all Hawaiians and his pronunciation of her name confirmed to me that this narrator has no idea who she was and should not be narrating these stories.

When the immortal Fae destroyed the ancient wall dividing the worlds of Man and Faery, the very fabric of the universe was damaged, and now Earth is vanishing bit by bit. Only the long-lost Song of Making - a haunting, dangerous melody that is the source of life itself - can save the planet.

So disappointed.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
No, the new narrators are horrible. They don't even do the accents, they're supposed to be in Ireland!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Barrons, too many reasons why.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
The old narrators made the story so much better and more interesting. The new ones are boring and I'm having trouble staying awake to listen to it.
Was Feverborn worth the listening time?
NO!
Any additional comments?
I've loved this series from the very beginning, but I've only been able to listen to the first three chapters, which is why I've given the story 5 stars. It's not the author's fault the narrators are so horrible, I'm going to just buy the book and get my Fever fix that way. BRING BACK NATALIE ROSS AND PHIL GIGANTE!
