They had a version for sale in the past (same narrator, prob same recording, 54 hours) that was one title/one credit.

This older version won't show up in the current for sale catalog. However, if you purchased it, you will still be able to see it, download it, and listen to it by searching your personal library.

So, don't purchase the 2-volume version until you first check your library, if you think you might have already purchased this title some years back.
To each their own I guess but I've seen the opposite in my environment with more people getting into it. I personally love it as well. Yes it is flawed but then again, what show isn't. In a long line of crappy and mediocre shows Shogun stands out imho.

Quote from amax :
FX series suffers for the same reason. They're claiming universal acclaim, and the mainstream establishment critics definitely took the bait/money, but most normies like me gave up after the first two extremely strong episodes. Really went into the weeds from there...

Actually thought Ep3 was 10/10. Incredible. I'm still halfway through the season. It's a solid ass show.

I almost bought The Martian again after they re-released a slightly different version. Miffed about this one because it's been on my wishlist forever.

I'm more into streaming video, hoping for another cheap HULU deal on the FX series.

Why is it now two books other than to make money? I really hate that they split the books to just increase revenue.

I think it starts falling apart during the keystone cop-like action choreography of the "nautical lessons" episode, descending into melodrama and procedural minutiae after that.

If a book tickles my memory as a possible prev purchase, then I always check the release date on the first-sale version and then check my library. To be sure.

V annoying that they offer no warning.

Is there any difference in the quality of the narration? TIA

I also found the FX series on my Youtube TV VOD but with commercials. Recording the following episodes so hope to skip commercials. I was in Japan in the 50's and 60's so can relate to this scenery before it was westernized. I grew up on Samurai and Sumo TV

Pretty sure it's the same narrator. There is an audio preview for both.
