- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wonderful, especially for a Welsh UK homeschool family living in Seattle, USA. It was really intriguing and had a nice story line... narration was awesome.. thank you!
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Why are free libravox narrated open source books being offered on a paid subscription service?Very discouraging.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I thoroughly enjoyed the story. The narrator is decent but has only 1 voice. That's the only reason for not giving it 5 stars.
