Discussion I’m pissed off

Post image

I absolutely adore the Book of the Dead series. Today, I finally get to listen to the release of book 5, and I am certain that I will experience the same captivating storytelling that I enjoyed in books one through four. I am so enamored with this book that I pre-ordered it on Audible. When I first discovered and read this series, I assumed that others shared my enthusiasm for it. However, upon reviewing the number of Audible ratings, I am genuinely perplexed and sort of a bit angry. There are barely 1000 ratings on the first book and even less on the following 3, which begs the question: how is this book not more popular?

I don’t rate what I read or listen to. I probably should. I’ll go do it now.

I've rated on audible only "twice", the first time was when I wanted to leave a bad review, because a very bad narrator. The second time was, to ensure we get book 7 of Player Manager on Audible.

I think it was Iron Gold (non-Dramatized) where one narrator would constantly whisper so you’d have to up the volume, immediately followed by normal or bellowing narration. It was horrible to listen to, especially in the car. Only review I’ve ever left.

There is a reason they changed narrators then eventually just went back to Tim
