A review by wulvaen
Mortal Coil by Derek Landy

2.5

Fucking hell what on Earth happened with this audiobook? The original narrator Rupert Degas is gone, and he was amazing, and he was replaced with Brian Bowles who, while putting in some effort to retain the accents and mannerisms of each character, was shite.

He often had trouble remembering how the voices sound, for example his voice for Sanguine often went back and forth from sounding like a resident of Texas, to Chris Rock???
How does one even pull something like that off, that's impressive, terrible, but still impressive.

On top of that, the iconic music associated with the first three books is completely gone, and while the previous audiobook lacked music entirely, this book had music at the beginning and end of the book and it was incompatible with the tone and vibe of the books.

Was going to give a 2 stars for the audiobook, but at least he put effort into keeping the accents and voices, but not enough to be as enjoyable as the other books.
