Drew, this is impossible to understand for me. It sounds like gibberish unless I concentrate hard. Even then, if it's not enjoyable and easy, I don't want to struggle through. I am also more used to reading than listening.

Thank you for the feedback - I really enjoyed his accent but it sounds like it’s not a very good fit for most people - keep an eye out and I’ll probably upload a new version in the next day or two. I already created it because someone else couldn’t understand well but I’ve been trying to beat another deadline.

Sorry, I had a very hard time understanding this narrator, so didn't listen to the complete story.

Thank you for the feedback. I will keep track of that. I spent a couple years in French speaking countries so it felt very natural to me. I'll consider recreating the audiobook if others are struggling.

It was a just very unfamiliar accent to me, and truth be told, I really do prefer to read rather than listen. I have even found myself turning on closed captioning to watch some shows from the UK LOL I was just curious, but I'm sure I'm the exception.

No reason to be sorry - it's good feedback nonetheless. I have some audiobooks up for sale so this tells me that if I use a stronger accent, I should probably have a second optional (free) upload for purchasers who are less accustomed to accents. Thank you.
