Querida Lu Ahn Funck
Women of Scotland is a thematic time trip through Scottish history, and the important part women have played in its past. From the humble to the great, Scottish women have been at the forefront and background of events. Here are the fisherwomen, the warriors, the great writers, the Jacobites, the martyrs, and the mill girls. Without them, Scotland would not have existed. Join a great journey from the Dark Ages to the 21st century, and learn about the women who have been the driving force behind this small, yet dynamic nation.

This is the first book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Querida Lu Ahn Funck ) and I would listen to another. Her voice is pleasant and I think she read this content well. However, I do not know if she is of Scottish heritage, but I believe the Scottish accent is not natural for her. Out of curiosity, I previewed a few other books and seems hers is a typical American accent. She did quite well in most areas, but in others, it would seem she would lose the lilting sound and Scottish ‘r’ (which made me question her natural accent). I am a bit confused and disappointed that they did not find someone with a native Scottish accent. Not that I feel this book needs to be done in such a manner, but it appears that is their choice, and therefore, in a book extolling Scottish women, why not have a Scottish narrator?
Quality of audio was bad. Sometimes every other sentence had a different volume. Sometimes part of a sentence. There was some running together of sentences and repeated segments that should have been edited out.
There are no explicit sex scenes, excessive violence or swearing.

A lot of information but a good book.

I'm not sure what accent this narrator thought they were doing but I do know two things for certain: 1) It's fake; and 2) It sure isn't Scottish. Why the narrator chose not to use their own voice/accent (assuming American) is beyond me but that choice made this audiobook a total disaster.
In addition to the bad narration, the audio quality was bad and the entire production was pock-marked by poor and obvious edits. A wonderful tale ruined by an amateur narration and production. I think I'll try to find this book in print and imagine my Scottish grandmother is reading it to me.
