Loved the book already, and this narrator is fantastic. Glad I got it and will definitely get the rest of the series.

A visual book-- not worth the audio version

Don't get me wrong, this was a pretty good listen. I really think that both Trixie and Katya would be great narrators and did an excellent job narrating. But like so many similar books, it's a rehashing of material that we've heard before, for the most part. It's 3 hours and change-- about the length of what, 3 podcast episodes? That would be fine, if the audio version had included the HEAVY amount of visual content, which let's be honest, was the main point of this book. I certainly wouldn't have paid $30~ for this, but I'm disappointed that I wasted a credit on it.

Really great book. To the point, intuitive, no BS. I will for sure be buying this author (and narrator)'s other books in the near future.

Narration is pretty bad, I listened to 1.5 hours of it and could not continue. The narrator seems to just say one word after another, rather than put appropriate emphasis on words in a sentence, etc. In addition, the "female" voices are really irritating. I have returned this book.

I absolutely love the narrator, Hugh Fraser. These aren't my favourite of Christie's books, however.

Response to "incorrect" pronunciation of "gaol"

From: grammarphobia.com/blog/2013/12/jail-gaol.html
"The short answer, according to Oxford Dictionaries online, is that the word “gaol” was “originally pronounced with a hard g, as in goat.” Here's a fuller answer. “Etymologically, a jail is a 'little cage,' ” John Ayto says in his Dictionary of Word Origins."

The narrator is NOT in fact pronouncing "gaol" incorrectly. He's spot-on.
