		<description><![CDATA[[Remastering] was a wise decision. Not only has Mr. Morris chosen voice actors who have the skill to deliver the lines well <em>and</em> to fit together in an ensemble, the addition of vocal variety and sound effects both magnify the story's greatest asset, which is <em>spectacle</em>.]]></description>
