Missing most of chapter 3

Revisado: 10-30-21

This audio book is great, but most of chapter three is missing. There might be more chapters missing too, I haven’t listened to the whole book yet.

Loved the book, not the narrator

Revisado: 10-02-21

I loved this book, and will listen to it many more times. It was worth the purchase price and then some. The only thing I didn't like was the narrator. I just didn't think she fit the story very well.

I thoroughly enjoyed this recording of one of my favorite books. The narrator brought the book to life for me. The voices were excellent.

Multiple narrators, and volume issues

Revisado: 06-05-20

I love this story and have listened to multiple versions and translations. This one is my least favorite. The multiple narrators are jarring, and the audio keeps jumping from low to high volume.

It doesn't get any better than this!

I was thrilled to find this recording by Stephen Fry, since I love both Holmes and Fry. It was well worth the credit that I spent for it: over 60 hours of listening pleasure. Fry's forewords to each of the novels and story collections are a nice addition. I just wish this collection included The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes as well. Fry's performance is excellent- his range of voices is astounding. Highly recommended.

Wonderful Performance!

I've tried listening to The Pickwick Papers read by two different narrators and couldn't stand either of them, so I was thrilled to discover Tadhg Hynes's narration. All of his audiobooks are wonderful, and this one is no different. Tadhg's lively expression is perfect for Dickens' works. An absolute pleasure to listen to! I don't remember the last time I've laughed so much while listening to a book!

What did you love best about A Christmas Carol?

I loved this audiobook from beginning to end. Tadhg Hynes does Dickens' classic full justice. His narration shows a familiarity with and love of the work that make this edition particularly enjoyable.His character voices are flawless. Listening to this edition will definitely become a Christmas tradition.

My Favorite Recording of Great Expectations!

Revisado: 04-09-13

Would you consider the audio edition of Great Expectations to be better than the print version?

My favorite way to enjoy Dickens' works is to listen to them. The only way Great Expectations could get any better than this recording, is if I could hear Dickens himself reading it (and even then, it would depend on Dickens' voice!).

Who was your favorite character and why?

Joe will always be my favorite. He's so loving and good-hearted.

Have you listened to any of Tadhg Hynes’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Tadhg's performances are always superb, and this one was right up there with the others. It's wonderful to hear his love for the books that he reads.

Any additional comments?

If you're considering buying this recording, go for it! I've listened to more than one other recording of Great Expectations (including one previously purchased from Audible), and this one is far and away the best.
