bland narration

I thought this lacked a real zing for the mini stories.
the narration was so robotic and bland I felt like turning it off.
I only stuck with it because the actual content was quiet good.

Very general stories instead of revealing historie

Poor stories... I expected some insights but got none. These are for people who know nothing at all about history.

Fair

It was OK. The reading voice on it was a bit annoying after a while though.

Too many subheadings

This podcast moves around way too much and does not really explain anything in detail. It chops and changes and this makes it hard to follow.

A bit like having someone read Wikipedia to you

Mostly quite dry retellings of standard historical events. Nothing new, and pretty uninspiring. Headings are far too frequent and break up the narrative. Sometimes the narrator seems to place emphasis on the wrong place in the sentence, as if he's reading it for the first time.

You'll probably learn a couple of things but they might not stay with you because of the uninspiring way they're presented.

Very informative

A wide range of periods and characters explained and latest ideas discussed. Loved the format of each episode. And I loved them all.

Interesting topics

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

yes, if you wanted a brief interpretation of historic events. If you are after a more substantial, in depth program, look elsewhere.

Which character – as performed by the narrator – was your favourite?

good narration

Any additional comments?

I wish the episodes where longer & more in-depth.
