Is Primer good for learning English?

Primer is best suited to highly advanced learners who want to understand English in all its detail. The dialogue moves at around 134 words per minute, with frequent back-and-forth exchanges. Learners will hear plenty of useful natural English, but some lines may still require a second listen. Following the story requires attention, so language difficulty is not the only challenge here. If your English is close to C1/C2, Primer can be useful for building confidence with more complex narratives.
