Some good ideas. Some bad execution.

Spoiler free: the setup is really solid. Potential Nazi ghost ship? Sign me up everytime. When it sticks to that, it's pretty good. It just doesn't want to stick to that.

I stumbled upon this title and am so glad I did. The story lures you in with some obvious twists, but then can still zig instead of zag. Very enjoyable! The narration is perfect. All major characters take on distinct personalities. Looking forward to more from Mr. Slayton!

Not sure if the writing or the narration, but no one is likable. I stuck it out hoping that they'd at least stick the landing. Nope.

The story itself is decent. Parts can be pretty powerful. The delivery though is just not very good. The male narrators in particular just seem completely disinterested.

MILD SPOILERS POSSIBLE

I really like a lot of this. Our initial protagonist has a lot of potential. It's a promising setup. As the events begin to unfold, I started to get into it. And then...meh. The local police character struck me as just inconsistent. I'm not sure if it was the writing of the performance. It just didn't work for me. The biggest plot issue I have is the way a certain thing was conveyed to a certain place. Um, really? That's the best you could think up? My eyes just rolled again thinking back on it.

The performance fluctuates as well. Some of our characters are just spot-on. It's when he tries to veer into American accents that it falls apart. They're caricatures, not characters at that point. One sounds like my untalented uncle attempting a Foghorn Leghorn impression. Our reader also has trouble sticking with each of these. It almost becomes laughable near the end when a character is speaking and you can hear the accent transitioning to a different voice the actor is using. A bit better direction could have prevented it certainly.

Overall, it was mostly ok. At times it verged on becoming something more, and then just didn't.

Without the physical text it's hard to say where the fault lies here. The narration is absolutely awful. Emphasis and flow is spotty at the best of times. That makes the material impossible to appreciate.
