In terms of its content, Heretics is classic Chesterton, although it is a bit more tedious than some of his other works. Unless you are well aware of important British literary figures of the late 19th and early 20th centuries--and appreciate their influence on English culture-- it will be a difficult read.

Having said that, the main object of my critique here is not the content but the narrator. Several reviewers have held him up as an excellent narrator, but I must demur. I do think he has a pleasant voice, and his style of delivery is engaging enough. However, I do not believe that he is equal to the task of reading this particular work. He mispronounces more than his fair share of words, and these mistakes quickly become distracting. In my opinion, literature of this rank warrants a narrator who is more self-aware, conscientious, and linguistically qualified.
