Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 260
The bloody-minded Montresor leads the pompous Fortunato deep into the catacombs, seeking the famed Amontillado wine. Here we have one of Poe’s most terrifying, and most “beloved” tales. Revenge and pomposity commingle beneath the river’s bed, leading to a delightfully sinister conclusion.

Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 5
The room was on the fourth floor, and the door was locked - with the key on the inside. The windows were closed and fastened - on the inside. The chimney was too narrow for a cat to get through. So how did the murderer escape? And whose were the two angry voices heard by the neighbours as they ran up the stairs? Nobody in Paris could find any answers to this mystery.Except Auguste Dupin, who could see further and think more clearly than other people.

Dumbed Down
Revisado: 01-23-14
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
This is a "dumbed down" version of the story. Most unfortunately the description does not indicate the rewritten and edited text. The missing parts are really part of the beauty of Poe's writing.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
Poe is a remarkable storyteller, and the ending does not disappoint.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
He was far too friendly, light-hearted.
What character would you cut from The Murders in Rue Morgue (Adaptation)?
All the characters are vital to the story.
Any additional comments?
This adaptation was poorly done. While the description says it is unabrigded.
