The Howling Swede
Automatic metadata extraction keeps my library organized. It's a time-saver! ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature enhances the audio quality to an impressive degree. An unobjectionable but unexceptional audiobook experience. The narrator's performance was serviceable and the audio quality was fine, but nothing about the production particularly stood out or elevated the material. It was decent background listening. Good but not great. The narration was competent but lacked the extra spark that makes some audiobooks truly special. Still worth a listen though.
