Wonderful reminder of human suffering and triumph. The characters are believable and brought into life by the author.

Took a short while to warm up to the old English but the drama and liveliness of the writing pulled me in. I was amused by the narrator change of voice to portray the characters.

Enjoyed it

I will never know why a producer would hire a person with a speech defect to be a narrator, nor why such a person wants to display the defect thus!!! Really!!

REALLY??

My students and I found this narration impossible to listen to. As one student put it "It sounds like they haven't read out loud before." I understand what they meant. The narration is choppy, doesn't contain a natural flow, and thus produces a boring and monotonous read for the duration of the book. We lasted 2 chapters before moving to Kate Petrie, who produces higher-quality material.

Horrible, Horrible Narration
