not sure about the AI

the stories where really good but AI voice couldn't portray all the emotions correctly making some of the scenes unreadable or confusing.

The AI voice is a huge disservice.

The stories were good but the monotone voice that mispronounced and missed words was painful. I tried to focus on the stories, but then something would be misread or the lack of inflection would confuse the meaning and I’d focus on the robotic voice again. Please use humans to narrate!

horrible AI narration took away from the experience

Good King stories but AI narration took the umph out of the stories, devised them of emotion and left them flat

Not King’s best.

Stories were okay. Synthetic narration was sub-par, not terrible, but not nearly as good as a human.

First story was decent…

The AI narrator was a huge disservice to the authors whose stories followed the first. I couldn’t listen to the monotonous dialogue any longer. Some things (aka emotion, inflection, tone) cannot be mimicked by a computer.

Swindled out of my money

1st, the AI was horrible. At one point instead of calling 9-1-1 it read call 900-1-1. Secondly, these stories have the quality of Mrs. Brown's 6th grade creative righting class. I wasted my money by buying the Kindle version and the audio too. Granted that I'm disappointed but I'm sure Mr. King's, his family and others are very happy with these stories this I'm sure of.
