Not impressed by the presentation

Why is the cover for this audio version a cowboy riding a bucking bronco?

The reader speaks in short phrases and makes understanding more difficult than if whole sentences were spoken as sentences instead of three or four short groups of words

Decent story, poorly narrated

The narrator reads this as if he is narrating a PBS wildlife documentary. The voice just doesn't bring the story alive.

narrator's voice is too deep, sounds strained, hard to tell difference between characters

The narration was terrible, his forced sounding bass voice was hard to listen to, very little difference between characters.

Good Story Though Not Pleased with Conclusion

I think we all knew where this story would end, but still sad.

Also, in this particular recording, chapter 33 is actually a repeat of the reading of chapter 1, and should be fixed.
