Customer Reviews
much too fast delivery
The narration is too rushed, typical fast american delivery, but good value for money, I have got used to it over the last few weeks and now listen it a lot..it is a bargain really.
As good as it gets
If I could give this 100 stars I would.
I'm interested in the koans of zen and this contains just about all of the famous ones that you can trawl the internet to find.
Alec Sand's voice contains the required tone to pass on the tales, no shouting, no getting carried away and no over the top portraying it to impact. Simple, quiet, relaxed reading. Very easy to close your eyes and pass some time listening to and the stories are still left to the listener to think about. There's a good 2 hours to 2 hours 30 minutes to listen to and then some music to relax to.
For £2.95 you can't go wrong, by far my favourite audiobook to lie in bed and listen to.
