Great story, good narrator, audiobook format is c

I love this story so much. And the furst narrator is engaging! The second narrator has a sweet voice but I much prefer the first. my big problem with the audiobook is that none of the chapters are labeled, book is broken into six parts for download purposes but not labeled. It's very difficult to tell which book I'm on, and Which chapter I'm in in that book. Twice, in the audiobook, the story shifts of abruptly and I I've tried to see if the book was changing or what caused the change. I've tried to rewind and relisten to make sure I didn't miss something. it would have been much easier had there been any indication of where in the story I was

Missing two of the "Anne" books

This set is missing "Anne of Windy Poplars" and "Anne of Ingleside". The narrator of the first few books is TERRIBLE, painful to listen to. I would rather have bought the books separately with a decent narrator.

Not a good listen

The classic content is as delightful as usual, but the voicing by Tara Ward is bad enough to be distracting. Anne comes across as whiny and cartoonish. Marilla, the adult women and all the male characters share a monotonous, uniform growl. And, why on Earth does Davy have an American western accent? Audible breathing and swallowing sprinkled liberally throughout make this rendition unlistenable. I’m disappointed enough to stop halfway through and look for a different version.

Wonderful Books

The books are great. All of the readers do a nice job but the changes between takes some getting used to every time.

Note: its only 6 books, vs the full 8

Anne of Green Gables is one of my top two favorite books. This recording allowed me to enjoy them again. Please note it skips over anne of Windy Poplars and Anne of Ingleside.
