Love the Introduction!

It did make me want to listen to more; Neil Gaiman has an amazing voice and should definitely narrate more! : )

A deception, and a total rip-off.

This is NOT the entire book. This is nothing more than the blurb on the back cover. It is just a couple of minutes of describing the most bare-bones superficial descriptions of the main characters.

A two page introduction for a 254 page book.




The "audiobook" Induction is the introduction to the book Swords and Deviltry, which contains three main stories and the aforementioned 2 page Induction.

By reading time, the four sections are as follows, with each section costing $1.99 when separated from the whole.
Induction: 5 minutes for $1.99 or 40 cents/min
Snow Women 203 minutes for $1.99 or 1 cent/min
Unholy Grail 76 minutes for $1.99 or 2.5 cents/min
Ill Met in Lankhmar 172 minutes for $1.99 or 0.85 cents/min

The cost for reading about 1% of the time content of the book (Induction) is 25% of the cost of the time for reading the entire audiobook.

Hardly equitable.
