Amazon Polly - AI Voice
The Fall Of Kingdoms, Fifth Book In The Head Dragon Series, Chapter One, Audio File.
Of Note, Amazon Polly's AI does a pretty good job as a reader, but you'll note a certain lack of intonation in the reader's voice. Also, the AI cannot disquise between words like "red" and "read." So when you hear the error, it's the AI, not the text. Also, this audio file was created in January 2023. The AI may have been updated since the file was created. I'm hoping to have an update in 2026. I'll know then if the AI has gotten smarter.
I've inserted an audio sample of the Novel to give prospective readers the flavor and feel for the Novel.
