ListenBook's loop and shuffle playback options have made audiobook revisiting and studying a breeze. A decent listen overall. The narration was clear, though some character voices sounded similar.

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.
