About this listen

Paramédico is a brilliant collection of adventures by Australian paramedic Benjamin Gilmour as he works and volunteers on ambulances around the world. From England to Mexico, and Iceland to Pakistan, Gilmour takes us on an extraordinary thrill-ride with his wild co-workers. Along the way, he learns a few things, too, and shows us not only how precious life truly is, but how to passionately embrace it.

I have listened to Benjamin's other book 'the gap', and really enjoyed it. This book is hard work as the narrator is unfortunately not very good, making it sound very boring and monotone. The book spends ages talking about the authors time in Pakistan and it gets to a point where it just seems to repeat it self after a while. We listen to these books while travelling in the car and this is the first one we have not finished as it was just hard work and pretty dull.

Starts out well

A bunch of stories that confirm to the writer that only he and his NSW Ambulance fellows are true paramedics. Nobody else from around the world can hold a torch to his part-time majesty.

The voice of arrogance

I am sure the content of this book is stellar, I love Benjamin’s other works. But the voice of the reader in this was so irritating, I could not finish the book. This teenage sounding voice with a slight lisp and cotton wool sound really irked me. Not sure of the intent here, but it was a big oversight I think.

Poor selection of voice
