Helpful Score: 5

I'm glad I listened to this audio book. It was interesting and gave me a new perspective on ocean swimmers, human and marine. However, it's obvious the narrator is the author rather than an actor. Cox's voice is nice, but her annunciation is not polished like a professional's would be. If the book were long, this might have annoyed me but it was not much of a distraction. I only had to rewind a couple of times. Regarding the writing itself, Cox really needed a good editor. Minor changes could have made for much better prose. All in all, though, a short, satisfying read.
