Christian and all the men sound DOPEY and OLD. I don't think this is Becca's fault but how Random House altered the version. SO far, in this book all I keep thinking is about how bad they screwed up the voices.ĭid Becca Battoe do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?īecca did a great job in the first book but again the male voices are horrible in this version. I am anixous to see how their relationship evolves and I am rooting for them both. I am happily married for 16 years but this book captues perfectly the feeling and the excitement of falling in love. I LOVED Fifty Shades Of Grey, Ana sounded young but SHE IS! I loved Christian's voice, strong but sexy.

If you’ve listened to books by E L James before, how does this one compare? I am only into the first 10 minutes and I cannot stand the narration. What did you like best about Fifty Shades Darker? What did you like least? The adult content take a second stage to their story.īRING BACK THE ORIGINAL NARRATION! "UN" REMASTERED The love story between Christian and Ana is so intense, and so many unanswered questions from the first were answer on this one. I increase my review to 2 stars from the first book, just because she lost the "bubble gum" voice. After listening to over 480 audio books I know what I like and don’t like from a narrator. You really can’t ask more from the narrator when her only experience on narrating books is over teens (6 books) and children’s books (4 books). I’m still blaming the producers or decision maker for the narration choice. Also sometime she forgets to change voice inflection and I didn’t even know which character was speaking. The inflections leave a lot to be desire too, pauses and emphasis on sections that doesn’t make sense and just confuse the listener. Same narrator and yeah it lost the child inflection and fast marathon narration that Becca Battoe gives to the first one but its terrible when it come to the voices for the male characters.

Well the 2nd book is not better and no new technology that improve the quality. To make a new copy of a recording using new technology in order to improve its quality. For those that had anything to do with the producing or decision makers of this audible, this section is for you: Re’mas’ter =(Noun) a new master copy of earlier recorder / (Verb transitive) make better quality copy of old recording. Random House trick me! Shame on ME for purchasingĮven so I told myself I wasn’t purchasing the 2nd or 3rd one I felt I should after the note posted regarding Random House “re-mastered” copy.
