Poorly researched, poorly edited, disrespectful.
Makes basic blunders like confusing Te Waipounamu and Te Wahipounamu and claiming that Classical-period Māori practiced "polyamory". It's downright disrespectful to Māori that neither Audible nor the reader thought it was worth a scrap of effort to learn to pronounce Māori words correctly. Very disappointing.
