It’s a quick and easy to listen history of Marie Antoinette

I enjoyed listening to the story, because the narrator is lively, and her voice is clear. It was easy to listen in doing some research before visiting France and Versailles castle specifically.

Interesting and easy to follow!

I loved the narrator who spoke clearly and had a pleasant voice. This audio book was easy to listen to. It didn't bog you down with too many details and didn't sugar coat the life of Marie Antoinette but reminded us she was human. it really made you see the danger of mob rule and mentality being allowed to run amok.

Fast history lesson

An hour and a half covers Marie's life and gives you some interesting details.

I had some issues with the volume decreasing but I am not sure if it was the recording.

I received a free copy of this book at my request and voluntarily leave this honest review.

Good book to own

I learned a lot from this book. Plus the reading is clear, making the book easier to understand.

Disappointed listener of Review the Entire Life Story of Marie Antoinette

I am rather disappointed with way this story is written and by the way the narrator reads. There are mispronunciations of words and a poor use of pauses, which break up the flow of the narration. I became quite irritated with the unprofessional narration and therefore did not enjoy listening to this Audible production.
