Four classic science-fiction stories: 20 hours of great listening. This collection of classic Wells tales includes The Invisible Man, The Time Machine, The War of The Worlds, and The Island of Doctor Moreau.

The stories are pretty nice, but as this was my first exposure to them I had difficulty staying engaged. Very often the narrator would sound bored, or there'd be distracting background sounds, whether intentional or not. One sound in particular is like a compact disk player's whirring and twittering. This certainly removes the listener from any immersion into the story.

4 great classics by hg wells which are beyond me to review. The readers are all I can speak to.

the island of doctor Moreau: no complaints beyond a couple mispronunciations.
the invisible man: decent reading, but with horribly cheesy sound effects thrown in on occasion.
war of the worlds: great reading, maybe a bit slow for me, but that's just preference.
the time machine: perfect. can't say more than that.

classic stories and good readers.

H. G. Wells wrote such marvelous stories - whether this audio book or in any other form, I highly recommend them.

Stories are as good as ever!

Dr. Moreau's narrating aside, this is a wonderful collection of essential Wells. I believe it is George Eistice who really needs a lesson in commas. Suffer through it. The story, and the others with great narration, are well worth the distraction.

Timeless great stories
