Delightful

Revisado: 03-05-25

Excellent narrator enhances this story, which will especially appeal to fans of Jane Austen. It's a pleasure to follow the thoughts and emotions of a small cast of characters as they navigate falling in love. An unusual heroine adds to the plot which, although simple, is enjoyable.

Excellent narrator, enjoyable story

Revisado: 02-27-25

Excellent narrator adds greatly to this gently humorous story. Despite a slow beginning, by the middle it's enjoyable to hope the appallingly selfish beauty with her temper tantrums will get her comeuppance!

Delightful

Revisado: 02-25-25

Excellent narrator enhances this lighthearted story of gentle romance and humor, set in the lovely French countryside. The English and French characters are charming, except for the extremely unpleasant Countess (every story needs a villain!) and the shady Hubert. A wonderful and totally unexpected surprise twist occurs near the end of the story.

Superb narrator

Revisado: 02-10-25

Excellent murder mystery with a large cast of suspects, all of whom are given distinct voices and accents by the superb narrator, David Suchet. Don't be put off from listening to this book by the horribly annoying voice of the first character who speaks at the beginning of the story. Although her voice suits her personality, it's a relief when the story shifts away to other people, and she is rarely heard again.

Superb narrator

Revisado: 02-05-25

Superb narration of the Sherlock Holmes stories, with interesting introduction written by Stephen Fry. It's a pleasure to hear the classic original stories, which include some lesser known ones as well as beloved favorites.

Wonderful story and narrator

Revisado: 01-30-25

What a pleasure to hear witty and very funny banter, made even more humorous by a gifted narrator. The hero is wonderful, both protective of and sensitive to the heroine. It's refreshing to enjoy an unusual romance, that takes the time to build from friendship to love, while the hero and heroine rescue an endearing street urchin and pursue villains. It's also unusual and enjoyable to see how the couple fares after marrying. And this story ties together beautifully with the other two wonderful stories in this series, which is a tribute to the author's skill.

Inspiring true story

Revisado: 01-05-25

Moving and inspiring true story of the Carpathian's Captain and his brave rescue of the Titanic survivors. The Captain's resolute determination to save as many people as possible, and the risks and hard work he and his entire crew endured to make it safely through the countless icebergs at top speed in the dark winter night are remarkable. The devout Captain continued to act honorably while ensuring the rescued passengers were cared for aboard his ship. A male narrator is very good as the Captain, and a female narrator sings beautifully several haunting hymns during a memorial service aboard ship.

Wonderful story and narrator

Revisado: 12-15-24

Excellent story with superb narrator. The two main characters slowly get to know and appreciate each other, which makes their eventual love very believable. This novel of an arranged marriage begins with a subtle tribute to Georgette Heyer's A Civil Contract, but this is a much happier story. The intelligent heroine is unusual because she is considered plain, and because she is devoted to successfully running the art pottery inherited from her father.

Great narrator, unusual storyline

Revisado: 11-04-24

Superb narrator and delightful heroine in an unusual storyline that revolves around rumors of mental illness and murder in the hero's family. Hero's best friend adds humor, and brief Shakespeare quotes by the cheerful, adventurous, heroine help balance the serious subject matter.

Excellent narrator and story

Revisado: 10-02-24

Superb narrator enhances this extremely well-written story. Delightful heroine with a loving heart and brave cheerfulness in the face of society's scorn and verbal cruelty. Memorable twins whose frank comments and unabashed questions are hysterically funny.
