I had listened to the podcasts, though only long after I had read the books in the first place.

But now, with the first (and one assumes the rest, shortly) of the Smuggler's Tales, the narrator is Emily Woo Zeller, and I am not enjoying her narration. Instead of allowing the narrative to flow, every. single. sentence. has. to. be. separate. and. distinct.

If this were another author, I'd send the book back to Audible. But I won't do that to Lowell. (And I know he had zero control over the choice of narrators or anything else. )
I listened to Lovell's Quarter Share and while I liked it well enough, I haven't bought the next one. I do have all his ebooks, so I like the stories but I found myself wondering how much more there was to go a number of times while listening to the audiobook.
