Narrator just ok- still worth a read or a listen

Revisado: 12-11-19

I love this series and after reading the first one with a physical book, I decided to go audio with the others. An avid audio booker - I have become accustomed to top notch narrators who have a vocal range to differentiate characters. I wish Christina had more of a vocal range. It is often difficult to tell male characters apart and she uses her voice volume or pace (inconsistently) to differentiate which can be hard to hear at times. It is almost impossible to just get lost in the story.

She shows promise - I hope to it improves in the books to come!

It grew on me and now I am hooked!

it started out seemingly flat and one-dimensional, but it slowly unfolded into the promise of a tapestry of stories and characters. My least favorite thing is the female characters in the first book are stereotypical fighting over the man and a bit shrill. However, I speed past this dialogue to get to the more interesting parts of the story.

meditation and mindfulness one man's journey

Revisado: 05-11-16

It was challenging to get through the first 30 pages or so and as Dan got to the meditation and mindfulness part I'm glad I did. As an experienced meditator of 20-plus years, I found Dan described these concepts and practices in a way that is very understandable and relatable. I don't even try to explain them because they are so foreign to the Western mind including my own when I first began practicing. The first 30 pages or so when I was wondering if I was reading the right book later proved to be important context to Dan's Journey in this practice. Thanks Dan for writing the book! The more people who can embrace these practices the better.

Professional Narration

Revisado: 05-02-16

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I would recommend the story in book form not audible. The narrator's voice is very bland. That combined with the fact that Gellhorn is not a sympathetic character/person is not a good match for an audible experience.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Gellhorn's life and accomplishments

How could the performance have been better?

A more dynamic narrator
