Narrator made the experience better

Another well-done narration by Simon Vance. What a life, to read aloud all kinds of interesting works and be paid for it.

Great narration and well written

Simon Vance as always makes this a pleasure to listen to. The book itself is good too and gives a good introduction to St. Augustine to inspire the listener to explore further.
