Enjoyable
I enjoyed the story and the voice acting. it was difficult in the beginning to learn to listen to the thick French accent of the main character, but after I got used to it, it added to the story. The full cast production was great. Overall I recommend this, but with the understanding that it's not as easy to listen to as other books.
