Great story

A.I narration was poor, plus, there were a lot of times where it was obviously not well-edited, obvious spelling errors and such. But, still an engaging story and quite enjoyable.

Pretty good

I just wish this had been read by a human and not AI. The story was pretty good, but haveing human read it would have made it great.

Decent story

Ai is a horrible way to narrate a story. An amateur would be better than ai. It made a decent story bad.

Glad the audiobook was available

I appreciate that this audiobook was narrated in the first place, but the AI male narrator needs some work. The characters didn't stand out in any memorable way. Lots of nukes.

My Last Virtual Voice Title

Great story made almost unlistenable by virtual voice. No inflection, no accents, plenty of mispronounced words. Someone (human) should proofread these books before passing them to the computer. I’m sure the author is disappointed
