No One There (A Sofia Blake FBI Suspense Thriller—Book One): Digitally narrated using a synthesized voice

Written by Ava Strong

Narrated by Gabriella (synthesized voice)

This recording has been digitally produced by DeepZen Limited, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. DeepZen uses Emotive Speech Technology to create digital narrations that offer a similar listening experience to human narration. FBI special agent Sofia Blake, with a Ph.D. in linguistics, can decipher any hidden codes, messages or foreign languages the Bureau sends her way, finding patterns where others cannot and making her indispensable in tracking down the most heinous of serial killers. When a prominent community member is found dead with a cryptic note during the annual Dia de los Muertos celebration, Sofia must crack a cypher that only she can solve—if she can do it in time to save the next victim…

“The plot has many twists and turns, but it is the ending, which I did not see coming at all, that totally defines this book as one of the most riveting that I have read in years.”

Storyline was fantastic but I'm a fan of digitalized readers but you really need to listen back to your story because the computer software that you're using does not know pronunciation of words and it really distracts from the story.

The story is good but the audio version is terrible! The synthesized voice is horrible and the words get mispronounced 1/3 of the time

[Tara Kear · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Book story flowed nicely. The digitally enhanced reading was awful. It continually missed pronounced words over and over. My future audiobooks I will make sure it is a live person reading it.
