Penguin shouid not have chosen this narrator. He’s really monotone and ruins the book because if it.

This is a terrible narration

Nice story but the narrator lacks personality which left me cold I'm afraid to say

Having been spoilt by the excellent narration on some of the other Dredd audiobooks out there, the poor quality here is a bit shocking.
The story itself is great and in such a character rich world, it is odd that the narrator makes no attempt to give any of them personality.
He seems to genuinely struggling with reading outloud and comes off as amateurish.

Great Story, Bad Narration

I was really looking forward to enjoying this book but the narrator is really annoying sometimes it sounds like trying to read as fast as he can and other times there's pauses when they don't need to be I don't like criticising anyone but I can't listen for more than an hour very frustrating

Good book not a great narrator

Desperately trying to listen to this but the narration is some of THE worst I’ve ever listened to. I’m an hour and a half in and I can’t listen to anymore (it’s about 11hrs). Incredibly monotone voice. Massive, strange pauses mid-sentence, some very strange intonation, audible mouth champing and swallowing. Feels like this hasn’t been edited at all. listen to the sample.

Such a shame as the story itself seems like great Judge Dredd material. Purely down to the narration alone, they’ve somehow made events surrounding one of the most epic Dredd events, Apocalypse War, simultaneously painful to listen to and sleep inducing.

Awful narration
