I am curious, is the audio book abridged and the book far too long? Or what else could it be?

- _s_a_m_ 2y agoIn my opinion Andy Weir is not a very good writer anyways, he is ok. When the story is interesting enough that is typically fine, like in The Martian. Hail Mary is too long certainly, characters a little flat, however, Ray can fix the flat characters in the audio book a little with his good voice acting.
- progbits 2y agoWithout getting into spoilers, the very high quality narration makes the story better.
- Suppafly 2y agoI can understand people preferring to have things narrated to them, but I fail to see how narration can make a book from something you don't like at all into something you like. Ultimately no matter how good the narration is, either you like the story or you don't.
- kadoban 2y agoAudiobooks can do a lot to give _character_ to characters that are otherwise quite flat.
