No, apparently Shatner's a terrible reader too. Harlan Ellison gave a whole load of Caedmon sf and fantasy records a big review back in the day and this LP was the only stinker of the bunch. Ellison took Shatner to task for not being able to pronounce various basic scientific words and repeatedly not reading the sentences so that they parsed smoothly (implying that Shatner did no preparation). I think there was also something about obtrusive sound effects and musical stings that also interrupted ease of listening.

Mindwebs had an issue with those. Maybe it was an 1970s thing.
