My favorite Barsoom story, marred by a strange performance

Perhaps one of the best of Burrough's Martian stories, but odd voicing choices made this a very difficult listen. Characters spoke in effete tones, deep southern or California valley girl accents, and were jarringly out of place in this story, and greatly detracted from my enjoyment. This isn't to say the performance was bad, as it would fit in other genres, only that the characterizations felt distractingly inappropriate for this work.

A good story ruined by a comically bad reading

The narrator chose to voice characters in comically silly ways, with groan-worthy accents and goofy inflections. Yes, it's a classic pulp sci-fi sort of yarn and not terribly serious, but it's a fun story and deserved better than this treatment.
