Just Awful

Any additional comments?

This book sounded like it was written in a different language, and then published in english via un-edited use of Google Translate. There were tense and conjugation errors that graded on me and distracted from the subject matter. There was also very little information here. I think Roger Banks had a couple of pages of material to fit into this 3 hr book, so there was a lot of repeating. A lot of repeating.

Further, the narrator was terrible as well. For the first chapter I couldn't tell if the narrator was an actual person, or one of those programs that read inputted text with arbitrary inflection. This narrator should read stereo instructions and nothing else.

The production value, too was poor. Often the narrator mispronounced something, and just took another try and the editor let us listen to both takes. Anything to add minutes to the bottom line I guess.

Please don't buy this "book".

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
