I'm glad that you mentioned the narration.
There are actually two versions at Audible. Which one belongs to this ebook (this has been an issue over and over again about Whispersync deals and, to my knowledge, no one has come up with a truly satisfactory answer)? Well, the ebook page says that the Audible audio (alone) is $9.95. When you go to Audible's webpage for the audiobook, one version is $14.95, and the other is $9.95. I had to assume the one priced $9.95 was the version that a person would get, because it was the same price as the Amazon ebook webpage said that it was. That is not fail-safe, I know, but that's about the best that I know to do.
I didn't see, at Audible, the version with the Donada Peters narration, full stop.
Beauty is in the ear of the beholder, anyway. Both versions of the audiobook at Audible have a respectable 4.2 rating.
Thanks for your kudos about the book. I never know whether or not a particular Whispersync deal will go over well or will be a dud.
