The ease of downloading content via WiFi, WebDAV, and more has made ListenBook my audiobook hub. Sharing audiobooks with friends is a great way to connect over stories. Beautiful design and intuitive interface. Very pleased. A middle-of-the-road audiobook that neither impressed nor disappointed. The narrator's voice was agreeable enough for extended listening, though their character differentiation could have been stronger. The production met basic industry standards without any standout qualities.
