Sadly, the lisp of the reader is a bit annoying. And it is making me lose focus in the book. Which is rare for me. I'll keep on listening for a while more to see if the book itself kicks off enough for me to disregard the shortcomings of the narrator. The book picks up speed about halfway through. And after that the lisp isn't relevant anymore. Or might be I became used to it. Regardless, a book worth listening to!
