Lose the Narrator or Lose Customers !
This narrator takes the prize for Worst Narration Ever Heard ! Have been listening to audio novels for over 15 years and she hits a low I never realized existed.
She makes Wimsey sound like a bad castrati in a medieval chorus : he squeals to show a range of emotions from surprize to astonishment to delight. I kept waiting for her-as-him to hit high C.
McDowell has taken the idea of "camp" into a whole new dimension. Poor Peter.
Ngaio Marsh put it best in an open letter to an aspiring would-be writer : You poor, poor boy. Poor, poor Peter Wimsey.
And poor poor listeners.

Nope, returning immediately.
I loath and despise Jane McDowell's unintelligible narration. I listened for a few minutes, I skipped forward to a different chapter, I tried, and I just about cried. Thank you, Audible, I will be taking advantage of your return policy this time.
I know that other people have recorded versions of Dorothy L Sayers books. I regret bitterly that I cannot buy those recordings online in Canada at this time. I'll be searching for old second hand copies on CD as my last hope.
