THE SECOND BEST BOOKM I’VE READ IN AGES
This is a really good book if you have read the first one and I’m exited to read the next one.
I would recommend it to anyone over the age of about nine
But it is definitely up my top favourite books I’ve read

Couldn't get through it
The change in narrator totally ruined the series. Every time the narrator pronounced says instead of sez, my eyes rolled. The transitions between chapters was awful as well. Get the print edition if you want to know the end of the story. This is just a waste of your money / credit.

What happened to the narrator!?
Great story. Poor narration.
The first two book were narrated well (minus croaky’s voice), this book is narrated so poorly. It’s lacklustre and boring; the chapter numbers are read out at the end of each chapter- without a pause. This ruins any sense of suspense.

another great story, but let down by the reader
this is another great roar story. takes a while to get going, but really hits its stride as it gets to the final act. However, while the first two books were narrated perfectly, this narration is lifeless and very weak... there are even a number of mispronounced words and phrases that suggest this was a rushed production.
hoping for better on book 4

Another great story, what happened 2 the narrator?
we have loved the stories of Arthur and Rose's adventures in Roar, but the narration of the 1sr 2 books was awesome this is really lack lustre in comparison. not sure what happened with the editing but the chapter ends and the narrator reads "chapter x" as if it was the next word in a sentence from the last chapter. No pause at all to think about what happened, any suspense is ruined by it. Really spoiled it.
