Critiques

very hard to understand


(1 stars)

The ready has a very strong accent that makes really difficult to understand the content, on top of that, the quality of the sound it’s quite poor. Really a shame for such a book.

very difficult to understand


(1 stars)

the reader has a very thick accent and it was difficult to understand what hes saying. I dont usually have difficulty understanding people with accents, but I did with this recording


(3 stars)

it was all intelligible but multiple different readers with very different accents leaves me struggling to match proper names with each other. still it is easier than reading the text. thank you!

struggled to understand

I am an Indian, but still struggled to understand the accent. There is no point in having an audiobook where no one can understand the audio.
