Interesting and informative
Interesting and thoughtfully presented, however the reading (of one book in particular) came across as aimed at school students. Additionally, some pronunciation was questionable. Not only of Spanish words but also a number of English words which were pronounced incorrectly repeatedly throughout the book, which became distracting. There were also a number of outright contradictions between one sentence and the next.

A good listen
Informative and interesting content. As a previous listener noted, I, too, was put off by some terrible and incorrect pronunciations in English, Spanish, and local languages.
The narrator re-reads lines and can be heard clearing his throat. it is as if they didn't bother editing.
The pronunciations and lack of editing makes for a very low budget impression. The content however makes this a worthy listen.
