I browsed, I saw, I bought!

I was so pleased to see Browns masterpiece on Audible. A thorough history of Eoorup and the Krishtns! Yes, that's how the reader pronounces those words. Peter Brown's speech is as poetic as his writings. A flowing English bard is Peter Brown. So you'd think an English voice would be a good idea. instead an American , and a heavy accent at that is reading this. I am still happy with the purchase. Every chapter is listed so you can brows the chapter easy.
