I have been an Audible listener almost since the company's beginning and isn't the first time I have noticed the quality change when audio publishers change and narrators change. This just shows a lack in production control and very poor sound editing by this studio apparently. There are also several spots in this recording where the book just repeats itself. Another problem is the difference in pronunciation of the special titles and words used here, but this just goes back to the different narrators. Jeff Gelder's voice makes it difficult to follow which character is speaking at times, not to mention the monotone and dull recitation with a decided lack of inflection at times.

I see that the first book has a different audio publisher so this explains the new narrator.

I was all set to hear Sean Crisden, and it was such a let down. Unfortunately, I didn't pay attention to who the narrator was until after I had purchased the book. I love this genre and story line and was ecstatic to see the second book here. Wonderful 2nd book, less than stellar narrator.
