Toby Moore's narration in ‘Playing With the Enemy’ is nothing short of exceptional. His clear and measured voice perfectly captures the tone of the era while making Gene’s story relatable and accessible. The pacing is well-balanced; it never feels rushed but maintains an engaging flow that keeps you listening long into the night. What sets this audiobook apart are specific moments, such as when Gene recounts his time with the Brooklyn Dodgers or discusses his experiences during WWII. These personal anecdotes feel raw and intimate, making the historical context come alive in a powerful way. However, some sections could benefit from more dynamic narration to match the intensity of the narrative. Overall, Toby’s performance is nothing short of superb.
