Yeah, bad robot reading

Unfortunately, I have to agree with the previous commentator. Most of the stories are read with bad old-school robot voices. This is definitely not what I expect from Audible. I returned this title because it's actually impossible to read. Current AI reading is mostly fine, but it's not it.

Mostly robot voices!

So far at least half the stories are read by mechanical voices! If I wanted an emotionally flat, uncomprehending narrator I would have bought an ebook and asked my tablet to read it aloud for free. I want my money back!

Good stuff

I liked the variety. both in he stories and narrators. Some better than others of course, but overall, very good.
