    Avoid

    What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

    If the you would remove the music and changed the narrator.

    How could the performance have been better?

    No music

    You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

    OK

    Any additional comments?

    Do not buy its a waste, you can not understand a single thing because of that awful music in the backround.

    nothing new

    bad music blots out some of the reading and wastes minutes of listening time with no dialog at all. What is said is old news or badly researched. don't waste money or credits on this fecal mater.

    Save your time

    Muffled recording.
    Thick nearly incomprehensible accent.
    Too many musical tracks - which are too loud.
    Auditorily disturbing.
    I'm not sure whether or not there was decent information since I could barely understand it.

    Terrible

    This recording is terrible. The choice to play music all throughout the reading, with varying levels of volume, is so distracting that it makes it impossible to focus on what's being said.

    Why the Music?

    Who had the idea to play music during the reading of an audio book? And what does heavy metal music have to do with Jesuits? I completely wasted my money on this purchase.

    Brutal listen

    Sappy music that interferes with the listening and subject matter that assumes you're already an expert in the subject. This thing listens like something that was cut out of the middle of a more descriptive and interesting book. A complete waste of my time and money.

    Poor Listen

    Philip Gardner, from what I've heard, should have been very interesting. Sadly, I could not understand what he was saying due to the music... and such awful music! I'd really like to have my money back on this one.

    Music, Maestro...NOT

    If the author paused to clear his throat, it was a cue to strike up the band, or sometimes, the orchestra. The interesting facts about secret societies, their origins, their place in history and how they influenced, and continue to influence, governments and nations are hard to concentrate on due the constant interruption of music ranging from classical to rock. The author's own accent adds to the difficulties. A listener will get something out of this short read but the production doesn't make it easy.
