The greatest audible of all time! :)

The only audiobook you should ever need or want. People asked for it and we got what we wanted.

An Amazing Read

This may not be your typical audio file, and definitely is not a typical "audio book"; but the amount and range of talent showcased in the short experience is truly enjoyable. 10/10 and I wish there was more.
