Needs an editor and professional narration!

First let me say that I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the depth of the characters and how they grew and changed through their hardship. Which made it doubly disappointing and distracting every time words were mispronounced; background static and pitch changes occurred that made it obvious this wasn't a professional recording; and entire sentences or more were repeated where a break in narration had occurred and recommenced. Authors shouldn't narrate snd record their own books in their basements. Having said all that - I'm invested enough to wonder what happens next, as it ended on a cliffhanger. Guessing I'll have to read the next book and skip the audiobook.
