Non-linear timeline.

Lots of information. Sometimes repetitive. Why say his third voyage, then that he had already done two voyages though? My tutor would have ripped me to shreds for that.

Nice bitesized information.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

The stories are written documentaries and not lullabies as some of the narrators reading them, especially the female ones. It was making me sleepy instead peaking my interest.

UNSUITABLE NARRATION.

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

Fair

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.

Interesting topics

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.
