Narration

Revisado: 04-19-23

While not bad, the narrator sounds like he should be reading young children's books. It's difficult to focus on the serious situations when it feels like I'm listening to the narrator of Curious George. Also when reading a characters inner thoughts he doesn't use their voice, rather he reads it normally. No other audio book narrator I've heard does that, so it kept throwing me off.
I thought it was a bit interesting how he uses classic style comic hero voices for the characters, though I believe it would have been better of they only spoke that way while in costume as a way of masking their true voice. As it is we have to hear Titan in his Crimson Chin voice throughout it all, even when he's supposed to be shouting in defence of his son, and it's quite silly.
Stories like Journey to the West can make this work more, since those kinds of stories are written in a more comical style. However I think it works to the detriment of the storie in this case.
Overall I think a somewhat more drama style narration would work better, especially for the parts of the series that include Krodin. I genuinely can't imagine this narration style describing Krodin killing slaves or throwing heads through people's chests.
