Narrator was Terrible

Would you try another book written by Ben Ohmart or narrated by Fred Frees?

Not sure

Who was your favorite character and why?

Well Mel Blanc Duh

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator was atrocious, he constantly sounded surprised or excited. He had a monotone voice that stayed at the same excited sound, didn't matter what he was reading

Any additional comments?

I gave this book a good go. Gave up half way through chapter three as the narrator was so darn annoying. Which I think is a real shame because I believe the book would have been interesting otherwise.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
