Title: Part Good, Part Bad
Review: I was interested in listening to the audio presentation of 'I Am Legend' and was not disappointed in it. The story differs greatly from the movie and it was a pleasure to hear it. The narrator of that story did a great job.However, when I got to the 'Other Stories' part of the audio book (about 4-5 disks into the 10 disk set), I found myself very disappointed by the poor narration (performed by a different narrator). I suppose some of the stories might have been ok, but like a previous reviewer, I stopped listening at about disk 7 because I couldn't stand listening to the narrator anymore ... couldn't even force myself. I've listened to a lot of audio books because I do so much driving and of the hundreds of books I've read this narrator was by far the worst. The short stories weren't Mattheson's best. I have read many of his short stories and liked others much better.My recommendation would be to find another audio version of I Am Legend that doesn't include the short stories.
Is the review positive or negative?
