I don't understand why this series has chopped and changed narrators, which has completely messed up the character voices. The first book was really by Simon Russell Beale, who did an excellent job on that and the third book. Another author did the 2nd book, but Bill Wallis has narrated the 4th book and this one, and he is absolutely awful! He has totally changed the voices of the characters, turning Billy Raven into to some kind of cockney sounding idiot, and Benjamin now is American?! Mr Onimous went from being posh English to now Foreign sounding- sounds like a cross between Russian and Italian. What on earth?!

Why did the narrator do this?! It has totally ruined the series for me. If Audible do any more Charlie Bone books, they should go back to using Simon Russell Beale.

Great series ruined by awful narrator!
