one star off for volume variability

Revisado: 10-23-21

Great story, if a little too goody-goody. Great narration, but the volume shifts from whisper quiet to yelling loud are a problem. The first I couldn't hear without changing the volume and replaying. The second earned complaints from people in another room. Annoying.

Good narration and story.

Revisado: 12-30-16

Mr. Crosthwaite does a good job with the reading. He captures the flavor and style of the writing well. His reading matches the author's mytho-poetic narrative voice. I read portions of the book, listened to others, and read while listening to the majority of the book because I had been asked to review the audiobook (I know the narrator). Technically the book is well written and the narrator matched the writing style well.

My problem with the book stems from the passive tone of the writing which is part of the mytho-poetic atmosphere the author intended. The story line was good, but I found myself too distanced from it. I prefer a more first person narrative that brings me close into the action and the characters' emotions/actions.

Despite my personal reading preferences I give this audio book 4 stars because I almost never give out 5 stars. 3 stars would have unfairly given too much weight to my personal style preferences. While Mr Crostwaite attempted to give me a free copy of the audio book, the code didn't work and I used one of my monthly audible credits and my kindle unlimited account to read, listen and review.
