Dreadful narration

So disappointed with this purchase. I’m sure the stories are good but the narration is absolutely ridiculous and I can’t stand listening to it. Boooo

Narration dreadful.

I'm sure the stories would be good but I couldn't listen to them because of the weird reading style of the narrator.
