Reviews

A Good Thrill


(5 stars)

As others have said, a bit funny to hear an Aussi as the reader, but he did an amazing job! I didn't notice any mispronunciation, but I'm an American, so that could be chalked up to dialect. Good story and an excellent reader!

Good book, storyline is excellent but it's a bit odd that an Aussie is the voice of an 18th century English man. Very well read though except for a few mispronounciations
