Very difficult listen

Listening to the virtual voice is difficult. I could not get into the story because the voice was so monotonous.

Superb story telling!

This is one of my favorite books of all times. Definitely worth a listen if you are a fan of dystopian fiction.

AI voice still needs some work

Overall, a very good story. The virtual voice takes getting used to, a bit to monotone and emotionless.

One of the best books I’ve listened to in a while!

I really enjoyed the story and characters. It’s educational and entertaining. And a few years ahead of its time!

Great title

Story is excellent. The Virtual Voice Narrator is just awful. Monotone, no change in tone from male to female, old voice to young kid. Would be great to have an actual Narrator redo this story

good story, virtual narrator needs work

I enjoyed the story, but the virtual narration on this title is not quite ready for prime time.

I recently listened to another book that also used the virtual narration, and it sounded fine, but this one had a lot of places where it was VERY obvious that it wasn't a human reading.

The biggest issues were with acronyms, foreign words, and similar things.

I got really tired of hearing, "Hon" (i.e. the short version of "Honey") sound like it was a Chinese name. It should've been pronounced "hun" but instead sounded like the first part of "Honda."

There were also some words that came out garbled.

That said, it was still a lot better than older-gen text-to- voice, and was mostly tolerable.

I wouldn't have paid money to buy this audio book however.

Right wing propaganda

Too much for me, but I did listen. Some ideas are good,, robot voice is unsteady in sound and cadence

Survivalists will like this book.

Did Sherry Thomas actually write this book???? If you are a prepper you may like it. Otherwise - skip!

The AI generated voice was a miss too. On the positive side there was no swallowing and taking breath. On the negative side it was too monotone and mispronounced some words, and skipped a few words.

Absolutely horrible to listen to AI is monotone

The Ai blows goats it's horrible to listen to. This story may have been good if a actual person read it so it don't sound so dead and monotone
