Reviews
A LibriVox Listener
Another good Haggard read, wish it had been longer... As for the reader I thoroughly enjoyed her accent which gave an exotic air to the story that fit perfectly with it. Perhaps her critics lack the sophistication and experience to frely understand an unfamiliar accent. I hope their vicious commentary doesn't deter this reader from volunteering.
Good short story
Seven Archers
The reader's accent though charming made it very difficult to understand her, otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.
Quick but good
Josh Erickson
Or rather graphic tale but good well written I did speed up the reader but it Was well done
Brett Miller
not the best by Haggard. the reader is an "English as a second language" person who has a marked accent. She does very well, but you have to pay close attention. Still, it must be remembered that she does much better than I would while trying to read a foreign language
David Stame
Very heavy accent. good short story. However, I've found the true enjoyment in the author's stories, are found in the longer, more descriptive tales. This story lacks the time to truly get acquainted with the characters. more of a "hit n run".
The Tale of Three Lions
Future Big Game Hunter
Another good tale from deepest, darkest Africa. At 3 chapters a bit short but still full of what to expect from our hunter AQ.
good
