Narrative

Absolutely unpleasant to listen to. Uncomfortable and annoying ending to all phrases. I am refering to the inflection. Won't listen any further to this book by Cathy Dobson.

Agree with Ivan - narrator's voice is unfortunately irritating - ok for free of charge Libravox - not here. Only made it through one sdtory. Test first before purchase.
