Dalona's first story was missing a chapter : but it got put back in at the end!

Still great stories, though!

Slight hiccup!

While I enjoyed Paratime!, I'm unlikely to listen to it again without significant work, as the final story is completely destroyed by having several chapters in the wrong order. As Audible doesn't present you with the ability to download audiobooks in chapters any more, I'd have to chop the file up and restructure it myself in order to make it listenable.

Excellent stories, marred by shoddy audiobook
