I finally got around to reading this one that's been on my list since middle school. While the plot did not disappoint, I think I would have preferred to read it myself rather than listen - some of the cast was excellent, (Constance and Warbeak in particular sounded perfectly matched to their characters,) as a whole the cast felt like they were rushing lines sometimes, and the narrator especially seemed to give no reactive space between sentences or thoughts. I think I would have loved this book far more had I read it younger, but I still felt that it was worth the wait!
