I for one thought the narrator absolutely nailed this assignment. Da5id is deliberately a name that only makes sense in text (like Ke$ha) and if written today would have had an emoji in his name, and Ng is not really pronounceable to Anglophones because it's literally a sound we don't make in English. His delivery is perfect for the over the top edgy attitude that the author is parodying, and had me in stitches multiple times.

This narrator needed a better editor. They lose all credibility if they can't even pronounce character names correctly. Da5id is simply pronounced David. Ng is pronounced Ing, not Ung. If you're going to narrate this work, you have to have some basic understanding of leetspeak and Asian culture.

When I was a child there was a kid's show on TV called Ffalabalam, and thanks to this audiobook I've now got the theme tune running around my head, despite not having heard it in almost 40yrs
reply

Minor point for the narrator:
Da5id ought to be pronounced just David
V=5 in writing.
If you want to pronounce it, (weirdly) it should be Daqiinqued

reply

If you have the audiobook for Mirrorshades that would be awesome. Either way, thanks for all the great audiobooks!
