    For those coming from Part 2, yes the narration is different as are the voices of the characters.
    This however, does not take away from the great job by this narrator. A few chapters in, and we meet new characters
    and this narrator does a great job with them and the story gets more engaging along the the way.
    So hang in there, and don't let the different narrator turn you away from this great story and great narration

    My only complaint is the inconsistencies in the accents. John should be a jersey accent and Dale only shifts back into a New England accent when the narrator is reminded hahah. Otherwise everyone sounds like Burnette.

      peoples accent can change over time. I do think that the accents are a bit over the top for North Carolina. Im in rural alabama and we do not even use that much of a draw. and while southerners may be seen as dumb for the way many of us speak slowly in comparison to other areas of the country. the sheer amount of knowledge you can gain from talking to locals, on nearly any subject is quite staggering. i work as an engineer myself.
      personally i feel that it would be awesome if audiobooks used people from the regions in books for narrators. i believe it would bring some great authenticity

    I was not particularly fond of the new narrator but as the story goes on he is doing a good job. I wish he would have done better with the different accents as the First Gentleman, but he is doing a great job. I just chalked it up to the (unlikely) fact that John’s accent changed due to stress and even though he has been there for years, he is going native. As they say.

      Sounds like it's a different narrator for the last part too. There don't seem to be any Southern accents at all at the start of part 4 now. All the changes do make it a little hard to stay invested. Kind of like if your favorite character in a movie keeps getting recast but the writers expect you to believe the newly cast actor / actress is still the same person. 😑

    All this narrator nonsense! If you don’t like it don’t listen. Go and buy the books and read them or pay for Audible. Bet non of you moaning Minnie’s have made a financial contribution to the channel? Entitled much? As a Brit I prefer the mid Atlantic narration and I’m grateful for the opportunity to listen for free.

      I agree. It’s free here and not too many ads. It’s expensive on Audible.

      The narrator also changes on Audible.

    I like the new narrator. Kinda reminds me of Matthew McConaughey. I like Matthew McConaughey. He is sexy. 😊

    Not a fan of stuffy English voices.
