Reviewer: gooch12 - 1/11/2009 9:38Subject: Good, not great, recording There was a single reader throughout, and though her voice was pleasant and clear enough, she read rather quickly and without feeling. Furthermore, she mispronounced a number of words along the way. Not enough to annoy, but enough to be noticeable. Sound levels of the recording are good, etc. Well worth a listen. |
