The stories are entertaining and well written, but virtual voice narration is awful. It has the ability to take a great story and make it mediocre at best. I wish they would stop using it.

Lots of great stories here, but the companies that record audiobooks need to collectively agree to stop using virtual voice. The mistakes it makes are so frequent and so egregious that they seriously undermine the quality of otherwise great stories.

I enjoyed the first couple books, but they seem to be going downhill. The AI narration has never been good but it’s getting worse, with bad inflection and a lot of mispronunciations. The story itself also seems AI-generated. It lacks any variety, as if the author has never used a thesaurus. Exactly the same descriptive phrases and exactly the same moves in every fight, as well as exactly the same phrases to describe every weapon. I really wanted to like this book, but it just left me disappointed.

I very much enjoyed the story itself but, just like the last book, I was very disappointed that they used virtual voice. The tone, emotion, and inflection are all wrong. They need to go back to an actual human reading the books.

I listen to a lot of podcasts, and I like the quality of the stories here. Each situation is interesting, and the material is well written. It’s clear that Donny Dust isn’t a professional narrator, but that not what he’s known for and he does a good enough job of it. I also like the fact that, whenever possible, they use real audio from the people involved. I’m definitely looking forward to future episodes as they are released.

The story itself was very entertaining, particularly the way she wove a variety of traditional stories together. What I enjoyed most though, was the way the reader gave a unique voice to each character. I definitely recommend this book to fans of traditional fairy tales

I couldn’t even finish the book. Maybe it’s good, I’ll never know. The choice to use virtual voice for narration was a poor one, and it ruined the book for me.

This series is disappointing. I stuck it out through the first two books hoping it would get better, but it didn’t. The stories were filled with cheesy cliches, and with incorrect information that could have been resolved easily with a 30 second google search. It’s as if the authors were writing about things they don’t really know about, using only information they had gleaned from watching B-rated movies.

I was impressed with this book. The story is well written, with good character development and enough plot twists to keep it interesting. I was surprised to find that it’s written with no profanity to make it kid friendly, but it doesn’t read like a kids book. It’s intended to appeal to both kids and adults, and does so really well. Their choice of reader is a good also, I definitely recommend this one.

While I liked the overall story idea, the presentation was much too wordy. It often felt like the author was just dragging it out, like a kid in school adding fluff to reach a minimum word count set by their teacher. It frequently dragged on and by the end I was just waiting for it to be over. Even the surprise twist at the end didn’t redeem the overall book for me, and I really wanted to like this one.
