Yeah, I enjoyed it. Count me in as another who was expecting something different. What I've realized with this series is the just when you think you know what it is it changes. Whether that's a good thing or a bad depends on your point of view.
There were times in the course of the story that I didn't know who was who, so that was a little jarring.
Unless you listen to all three releases back to back, you will have most likely forgotten (like I did) what the returning characters sound like or who they are and it is challenging at times on first listen with the addition of new personalities to figure out who is speaking. I initially had difficulty differentiating between Quintus (the brother who had a small role this time) and Atticus (the family friend). Also, identifying Pompey (a minor character) when he first speaks will go a long way for overall enjoyment of what's going on! Henry Nott's voice as the more footage involved Julius Caesar is easier to remember and identify. Someone that already knows what all the casted actors sound like on a regular basis (native UK citizens that are entertainment media savvy) probably wouldn't experience this issue to any significant degree.
