This is abridged.

This is only a fraction of the complete book. I wasted my credit because there was no indication of this. I had hoped to use this to jump back and forth between audio and dead tree for efficiency because I was reading it for a class. Audible should clearly indicate when works are abridged. I’m annoyed.
