Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I would recommend the book rather than the audio book to a friend yes. I wouldn't recommend the audio book because the narration sadly lets the book and it's author down.

What other book might you compare Footsteps in Time: A Time Travel Fantasy to, and why?

This book had an excellent plot and although it is in the popular time travel genre, it really is a unique story.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Being from Wales I know what a Welsh accent should sound like, and listening to the narrator get it totally wrong made me cringe. I was too busy at times being thoroughly put off by the accent that I wouldn't be able to concentrate on the story.

Could you see Footsteps in Time: A Time Travel Fantasy being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?

I am sure it could be a good TV show, but not sure who the actors would be, just as long as the Welsh characters were actually Welsh, that's what would matter most.

Any additional comments?

I won this audio book which I was thrilled about because I loved the sound of the story. I promised to review it and am sad that I couldn't write anything more positive about it's narration. GIven a new narrator this book could easily get 4 and 5 star reviews.

Good Story

I have only just listened to 2 minutes of this book, but that was enough to tell me that the narrator cannot do a Welsh accent. It’s possibly part Scottish, part Polish – but definitely not from any region of Wales - not even hundreds of years ago! Also, she is incapable of pronouncing ‘ll’ which, given the name of one of the main characters is Llywelyn... really trying to decide if I can bear to continue!

Don’t listen to this if you’re Welsh!

As a Welsh speaker I'm amazed I managed to make it to the end of the book. I had the first book on Kindle. When I first started listening to this one I gave up after less than a minute. I have never heard such diabolical pronunciation - even my husband can do better than that and he's not a Welsh speaker. I decided to try to get past the poor pronunciation by carrying on listening to it, but I will not be purchasing any more of the audio books as I can't bear to think about the mangling of the language of heaven! I wish the powers that be would give more consideration to who narrates what.

Story: great! Narration: absolute rubbish!

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Truly disappointing. This could have been a good storyline, but the narrators mono tone coupled with the worst welsh accent I have ever heard...a mixture between bad Scottish and African, totally spoiled it. So much so that I just couldn't listen beyond chapter 2! I would advise you give this one a miss.

Awful narration

If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more?

It sounds like a machine is reading this. It's off putting and I stopped listening

Disappointment

The worst performance ever
