I really wanted to love this story as I know the real legends that came from it are amazing. However the books itself is incredibly disjointed with the reader being taken all over the place. However the worst choice was the narrator. I understand trying to like a voice to the story telling but this went too far. A slow monotonous drawl that will either drive you insane or send you to sleep. Sadly it was a return from me as I just couldn't see it past the half way point. Re record it and it stands a chance.

A mid decent story with a terrible narrator.
