I liked the idea and it was free so WTH you know. So there were parts of the story that were great and others not so much. For free it was great EXCEPT, and I’m sure monetarily it was better but, VIRTUAL NARRATORS ARE THE ABSOLUTE WORST!!!! “Abel L.E.D. the kid into the shelter” is just one of a couple hundred mispronunciations and incorrect inflections. Ruined a decent story. Just my opinion.

It was an original idea for sure.

I feel like the story has some real potential, but I gotta tell you, Virtual Voice is a death sentence. No inflection, no life, no difference between characters, just a robot reading the script. Apparently reviewing the reading is not part of the Virtual Voice experience either. Just the worst overall listening experience and the story really does have promise. Maybe a human will read it someday and bring it to life. One positive note, I now know to avoid Virtual Voice audio books in the future!

Overall a D-

I liked that it was free. Possibly 2 reasons for that, to get more reviews and because it’s hard to think of a price much above free that wouldn’t leave you feeling tricked out of your money for a substandard product.

That said, This virtual reader is definitely better than the audible title I listened to a while back that was very annoying because the pacing was all wrong and frequent mispronunciations. Possibly in time it will be competitive. For example, when there is a word that could be pronounced 2 different ways like ‘tear’ which has the same spelling without regard to if it’s what happens when a person cries or what happens when you rip something.

Intonation and general delivery is too monotone.

As long as virtual reader books are free, they might make the monthly subscription worth it, but only if they get better.
