Bad

I struggled to finish the first chapter. Very vague and unhelpful audio book. For revision or learning purposes it is not helpful as it provides very little detail. For recreational purposes the droning narration will ruin any experience.

Awful

Skipped chapter 2 to 4. The whole app crashed whenever we tried to play chapter 2.
