Neil writes beautifully, and the reading just blends so well with his writing that it's seamless. Leaving that aside, however, the experience with this book was the smoothest I've ever had with an audio book. If I had bought the book for a child, I'd be very angry, but I bought the book for myself, so that didn't cause me any problems, just some surprise - although parents should be forewarned. There's a sexual encounter in there that is definitely NOT child appropriate. Stardust, however, doesn't have anything for me to be critical OF, except its designation as a children's book. I generally have something critical to say about any audio book - even if it's only that it isn't being read the way I, my own perfect self, would read it.
