Short and precise

Very well edited, getting a 10+ hour read shortened to just over an hour’s read!

Not what i was expecting.

The story was not what I was expecting, alot different than the movies and popular culture

A classic well-read

Yes it’s an abridged version. But life is short and the amount of content worth reading or listening to is almost endless.

another great abridgement

the story doesn't need more than an hour to tell you everything while still giving you the story in good detail

Keeps you entertained

The narrator does an amazing job telling the story and the different tones of voice he uses really make you feel like you’re there in the story.
