Reseñas
Wonderful Book, Atrocious Readers.
Jeff Scott
Wonderful historic novel ruined by the inconsistent reading by a team of readers, some of which have heavy accents making them difficult to understand, others that speak in painfully slow and boring monotone, and some of which did a splendid job. Unfortunately, despite my interest in the material, I feel like I only heard or understood about 35% of the reading. Such a shame to have slaughtered such a splendid book in this manner.
a bland stew
Vern
this is not a story of adventure. it's mostly political discussions with a thin, vague romance in it. different reader for every chapter. most of them were hard to understand or painfully slow and monotone. It's hard to listen to deep American history in a oriental accent where many common words are pronounced wrong. Hard to listen to, especially since the story was mostly boring.
