An Excellent Story Ruined by Bad Narration

This is not a review of the actual story, it is a review of the production only. I love Lisa Clark O’Neill’s books and have read most of them. I downloaded the audible version and was very disappointed in the narration which was performed by Audible’s Virtual Voice. If I hadn’t read the book first and known how good this book is, then this audible production would have put me off the story all together. As it was I got about a third of the way through listening to the book then gave up. There are no different voice tones for the different characters so you can’t tell when it’s another character talking. If there is a hyphen in the writing Virtual Voice says “dash”. There are a few more oddities which I found really distracting. I’m sorry Audible I won’t be purchasing any more books that have Virtual Voice narration until there is an improvement in the quality of the narration.
