Title: Uneven Volume
Review: Michael York overly emotes so that, for instance, Peter is always shouting and Lucy talks softly. I am constantly adjusting the sound volume. This is a great book, but it is exhausting and annoying trying to follow Michael York. I wish the producers had modulated the volume. I do not have this issue with any of my other audio books. For a contrast, try Christopher Timothy's reading of James Herriott's "All Creatures Great and Small." Timothy also does a dramatic reading with different voices, but the volume is reasonable and the voices are plausible. I get the impression York was trying to treat reading "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" like a Shakesperean stage production. It is overblown.
