crystal singer

narration was good. very disappointed because major passages were omitted. I didn't want the short story, I thought I was buying the full version. I hope you don't do this with all the books

Great Stuff!

Overall, I enjoyed it like I did the book. however, the narrator just couldn't quite manage some of the accents she tried. I listened over a car trip, though, and it really helped keep me awake and focused.

didn't like the narrator at all.
I've read the book numerous times so I know it isn't the story

Shortened version

Why is it not noted that this is a shortened version of the book? The original is a wonderful story. I wanted it in its complete form.

Too many important parts cut

I should’ve paid attention, and noticed this is not an unabridged version. Entire paragraphs in the early part of the story, parts that are important later, have been trimmed out for the sake of time. I’ve actually given up on listening to this because it’s ruined the experience of wanting to have an audiobook of one of my favourite Anne McCaffrey tales.

Would be five star plus it were UNABRIDGED

What a great DISAPPOINTMENT having to listen to an ABRIDGED version, not to hear the full mystery about the crystal singer and Killashandra adventures . . .
AND SPOIL ALERT, the next book, KILLASHANDRA IS ALSO ABRIDGED and it gets worse,
the third book, CRYSTAL LINE, has not been recorded on audible.

My only HOPE is that ALL THREE BOOKS of the series BE RE-RECORDED AS UNabridged.
By the way, I have read the books several times through the years and they were wonderful, they were unabridged, . . . Imagine that.
