I think the reader does the various accents really well, but I honestly don't know an Edinburgh accent from a Glaswegian one. <br /><br />I'm really enjoying the audio versions of these books and don't think I will switch to reading them mid-series.JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15714418.post-58951709254495400832010-08-14T19:11:08.523-06:002010-08-14T19:11:08.523-06:00I have wanted to read some of Alexander McCall Smi...I have wanted to read some of Alexander McCall Smith's books - maybe I will just listen to them - are the accents done well?Booksnychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11197753056299399065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15714418.post-53980375064579430782010-08-07T15:59:55.608-06:002010-08-07T15:59:55.608-06:00I'm glad you're still enjoying these books...I'm glad you're still enjoying these books but I see you've been listening to them. I'm going to check Robert Ian McKenzie out just to see if he can manage both the Glaswegian and Edinburgh accents. I don't think I could do a good Edinburgh one. Ramsey Dunbarton would be too much to cope with but there are quite a lot of them around!Katrinahttp://piningforthewest.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
