pretty good


(4 stars)

Interesting rant in a couple of chapters about religious zealots, their ignorance and hatred of science. Guess some things don’t change even in the hundred years since the book was published. (The author was a Unitarian minister) About the reader- once I slowed down the speed of his reading, he was much easier to understand. (Except for the name of the Marquis de Sade, which he pronounced as “Shadeh”, he was a decent reader. Took me a few minutes to figure out who reader was referring to.

Pretty good

I took a while getting used to this reader but once I did, I enjoyed his reading. The plot is a bit strange. it's worth listening to.


(4.5 stars)

Two chapters are reversed, 12 and 13 I think? Thank God for this reader! He keeps me in mysteries. An interesting storyline.


(5 stars)

I slowed down the playback like the first reviewer suggested. It worked and I enjoyed the book and reader.
