I have never heard a book with sound effects and music before. This series has proven to be the most interesting series I have heard. If you’re looking for real entertainment beyond the narrator’s voice, then this series will be the series for you. Thanks to the narrator as well as the production team for giving me the opportunity to step into this alternate reality. The use of all the sound effects as well as the different voices makes it very easy to get lost in Anita’s world.
