There are too many bad audiobooks out there, but this is certainly not one of them. It's a great thing if you can just put on your headphones and listen to an audiobook like this one. At first, I was questioning where it was going, but after listening to it for a while, I got into it. Then I saw this specific book for what it was: A fantastic endeavor by an educated writer and expert narrator.
