Customer Reviews
Lots of fun!
A great reading of the story. My only issue is technical: there is no volume modulation post-processing making it unacceptable to go to sleep to: sometimes the recording is quiet and sometimes the reader shouts, waking me up :( Please please PLEASE start using automatic gain control or something to even out the audio volume. It will have the added benefit of making these fun readings sound more professional :)
Amazing!
Thank you so much for doing this! You have such an amazing reading voice. I've loved reading the story online, but now I can take it with me. Keep on updating! I can't wait for the next chapter!!!
Very cool
This podcast is great. I probably wouldn't have ever read HPatMoR, but with the podcast I can still get the wonderful lessons wrapped in a fun setting.
(Full disclosure: Eneasz Brodski is a close personal friend of mine, and I am the voice contributor for Dumbldore.)
