No more converting files. A serviceable audiobook that met basic expectations.

It kept me moderately engaged during workouts but didn't leave a lasting impression. A functional audiobook production that met basic requirements. The narrator's voice was pleasant enough to listen to for extended periods, though their performance didn't add much interpretation to the text. The audio engineering was competent without being remarkable.
