Review - Teleportation Device

Dear David is an Audible Approved Producer produces and performs in numerous audiobooks as well as the audio drama A Ninth World Journal and performs in several other audio dramas. http://ninthworldjournal.com TRANSCRIPT I am Januae, and this is my review of the teleportation device. I cannot give it a favorable review, as it is only good for one use. Perhaps my negative review should be for the Veilwardens and the Ustiliator that caused me to jaunt randomly. The ritual they performed on me made things worse. In fact, I would give jaunting randomly a very unfavorable review. It is dangerous and unpredictable. I do not recommend it. Jaunting randomly: I give it one star. This episode of Listen, Rinse, Repeat was written, produced, and performed by David S. Dear of A Ninth World Journal Kevin MacLeod at Incompetech.com
