A few words didn’t seem to be pronounced correctly to me. Long silent pauses between chapters made me unsure if my Bluetooth was cutting out.

Glad to have finally experienced this story though. Some of the voices were good though, others were acceptable I guess.

Decent but a few annoying bits

Excellent vocal acting.
The story was episodic and doesn’t add a lot to the Star Wars lore.

Excellent narration
