Horrible Audio

The reading was just that, reading, and not well read. It sounded like a first read through by a grade schooler. The voice was OK, but timing and emphasis was choppy and out of sync.
All in all, horrible. I will NOT be continuing this series. It was just too hard to listen to!

Poor reading on top of lack luster story

I only got this book to finish off the series (with the other books being included with my membership). This is not the worst read book I’ve heard but it’s in the top 3. The reading is very stilted—are we sure it’s not AI? But the writing is also stilted, which doesn’t help.

But I did make it to the end of the series (the first 5 books), and it was OK.

Hard to follow

There is a new narrator. She did not do voices well. Every other sentence had a “she said or he said” or other variation of the same. She showed very little emotion in her words. In fact, I checked to make sure it wasn’t AI generated. Please bring back Chelsea for future volumes! I loved the first four books but this one really turned me off. I struggled to finish the story.

Great story, poor narrator

I've been binging all the books in the series. This is the first one I've struggled with. The narrator is monotone and I struggle to know who is speaking as most characters sound the same. There is little character difference. It sounds like AI generated.

Good story, ok narration.

The continued story is great. My only criticism is that the narrator is not, in my opinion, best suited to an action packed sci-fi story. Her voice is very soothing, and better suited to bedtime stories.

Not my favorite book of the series so far.

The story was okay but didn't seem to be as well written as the first four. The narration was very stilted, with the inflection being very odd. I wanted to hear the story but found the narration very distracting much of the time. I'm hoping the rest of the books in the series are better.

Poor narrator and story is not much new

This narrator puts more emphasis on "said so-and-so," than the words the characters say! She barely alters her voice for the different characters. Who the heck thought she should narrate? She's almost as bad as an AI narrator. I forced myself to finish the book in the hope the story would be worth it, and it barely was.

New Narrator is garbage.

I have no idea why they changed narrator in the middle of the series but it was a really bad decision. I loved the first couple books and the narrator was decent but I am pretty sure this will be the last story of the series I waste my time with especially if they keep this new narrator. Disappointed for sure.
