Foul language

Revisado: 07-17-24

I started to listen to this podcast because I believed the host knew a lot of information about the subject. I didn't expect profanity. I won't be listening again.

Nasty!

Revisado: 10-08-21

I didn't make it through the first scene before I had to turn it off. I don't think much of a narrator who would read such trash aloud. Yeech!.

Boring Narrator

Revisado: 08-02-21

Jessica Almasy used to irritate me, but I realize now that she was better than I thought. Her voice for Aunt Peg was wonderful. This new narrator speaks too slowly and sounds bored with the story. Nearly every character speaks in the same voice. She mispronounces words--even the author's name! I'm seriously considering returning the next book unread.

Reader needs to look up unfamiliar words

Revisado: 03-14-21

The performance was okay, but the narrator mispronounced several ordinary words she clearly didn't understand. One of them might not be her fault. The author continually uses the word "clamored" when it should be "clambered".

insightful and deeply satisfying

Bill O'Reilly and Martin dugard did an excellent job of chronicling the life and death of Jesus the Christ.

Shattered

Revisado: 10-05-18

Dick Francis lost his beloved wife and stopped writing after this novel, so the title is perfect. it isn't his best plotted work, but the subject is fascinating and there isn't a Dick Francis I don't enjoy rereading. The narrator ruined the Audible version. He sounded computer-generated: monotone, mechanical and bored, even during the murderous Rose's scorching rampage. I will never forget his name because I am determined never to again suffer his voice.

Most annoying narrator EV-ER

Revisado: 09-22-16

I read everything Elizabeth George writes. I don't really like this series and, after reading the print edition of "Edge of the Water," I realize that the Audible narrator is the cause. She speaks in an over-enunciated monotone bored whine and has a dreadful habit of pronouncing "them" as "thum" and "something" as "sthumthing". Unfortunately, there are hundreds of those two words in the work. I ended this novel depressed and irritable. I bought the final installment, but I don't think even George is enough incentive to convince me to subject myself to that appalling voice. I wish I could return it.

Don't buy this unless you like hearing profanity

Revisado: 04-22-16

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

If the author realized she could write a profane character without using the actual words.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Nothing written by Kerry Greenwoof.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

She said the nasty words.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

As far as I am concerned, anyone who ambushed me that way has written a worthless book.

Any additional comments?

I have heard so much profanity on Audible books that I don't intend to buy another audio book. You might consider warning your listeners about bad language. Better yet, stop recording it.
