I love the download options. ListenBook gives me so many ways to get my audiobooks onto my device. A serviceable audiobook that met basic expectations. The narration was clear if somewhat unremarkable, and the production quality was standard without any noticeable technical issues.

The narration was competent but lacked the extra spark that makes some audiobooks truly special. Still worth a listen though.
