>The Screwtape Letters, now in its 70th anniversary year, is an iconic classic on spiritual warfare and the power of the devil. This profound and striking narrative takes the form of a series of letters from Screwtape, a devil high in the Infernal Civil Service, to his nephew Wormwood, a junior colleague engaged in his first mission on Earth trying to secure the damnation of a young man who has just become a Christian. Although the young man initially looks to be a willing victim, he changes his ways and is ‘lost’ to the young devil.

2012 marks the 60th anniversary of the publication of C. S. Lewis’s classic, Mere Christianity. Having sold over half a million copies in the UK alone, his overview of Christianity has been imitated many times, but never outdone. Mere Christianity brings together Lewis’s legendary broadcasts from the war years; talks in which he set out simply to ‘"explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times."

Can't anyone teach me how to pray?"" Millions of people today are asking the same question. There is a sense of the necessity of prayer - we have to pray. But how?' Prayer is central to Christian faith; indeed, as Timothy Keller notes in his introduction, it is the main way we experience deep change. Yet so many people struggle with prayer - a struggle that the author himself has shared. This wise and inspiring book is the fruit of those struggles, offering a real and glorious vision of what it can mean to seek God in prayer.

For 300 years, The Pilgrim's Progress has remained perhaps the best-loved and most read of devotional fictions. In plain yet powerful and moving language, Bunyan tells the story of Christian's struggle to attain salvation and the Gates of Heaven. He must pass through the Slough of Despond, ward off the temptations of Vanity Fair, and fight the monstrous Apollyon. In Part II, his wife and children follow the same path, helped and protected by Great-heart, until for them, too, "the trumpets sound on the other side."

Great reading - and an index!
What did you like most about Complete NIV Audio Bible?
I have a couple of other Audible Bibles and this is by far the best. David Suchet is a great reader. In addition, there is no background music, which is a surprisingly big bonus. When listening to the Bible with music in the background, it quickly feels very repetitive. Probably the best bit of this audio Bible is that the chapters match the chapters in the books and there is an index document provided. In the past, I have spent ages trying to find a particular passage in other audio Bibles. Now it's easy!
What about David Suchet’s performance did you like?
David Suchet has a wonderful reading voice and the reading is unhurried and clear. You can (if you want) listen at double speed and it is still clear. Perhaps it could become soporific, but that's not always a bad thing!
Any additional comments?
If you are an Audible Member with a monthly plan and you buy using credits, make sure you buy the two half Bibles (2 credits) rather than the 8 smaller sections (8 credits).

What would have made Complete NIV Audio Bible better?
David's voice is amazing, just what I hoped.
However, have still to work out how on earth I am supposed to find a given book of the Bible let alone a chapter. So disappointing. Bought it so I could listen on bus but spent all of journey trying to find which section I needed to be listening to :-(
What did you like best about this story?

What aspect of David Suchet’s performance might you have changed?
Nothing
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Great Narration, poor editing
David Suchet is a great narrator for the bible, and this is an excellent recording. However I am stunned that there are no bible book names used for chapter headings, only continuous numbers right the way through from Genusis to Revelation. This makes it impossible to find a particular book and chapter you would like to listen to, (unless you go through and bookmark them all yourself), in the same you you might read a paper bible. Barmy!

Any additional comments?
If you buy this audiobook you will be surprised to find that all the chapters on the audio are only identified by a list of chapters from 1-510. Yes, really. No mention of the individual prophets or New Testament writers.To find out where, say, you access Ezekiel 15 you have to look it up on an accompanying list sent as a pdf. Hardly handy if you are listening on a country walk! My use of this audiobook has been greatly improved by putting bookmarks at the start of each book. A time consuming effort but worth it. What a pity that the producers of this audiobook did not stop to think, or take advice, on how its listeners might wish to make use of this valuable resource. The Bible is not a book in which one begins in Genesis and keeps going. Well, not usually anyway. Quick, easy access to each individual book is vital. 'Chapter 294' is an almost worthless signifier unless you have a very mathematical brain and can work out that that is Mark 16 or you are able to carry sheets of A4 paper with you everywhere that lists the chapter numbers. Btw if you are trying to find a particular chapter and use the pdf that accompanies the audiobook, the chapters given are incorrect by one digit. If you want Revelation 1 don't go to chapter 490 as per the list: go to 489 instead. It is a petty that despite other comments similar to mine there has been no amendment or modification to the crass system that was initially put in place with this otherwise excellent work. Even with the bookmarks it is still tricky finding a specific chapter in a lengthy prophet like Isaiah. I suppose I should bookmark each of the 66 chapters individually!

"How do I find what I'm looking for?"
Like the many before me it's such a shame that the best book in the world, narrated so beautiful but that the book names and chapters aren't included with the price of the audiobook.
Really disappointed with that part. The reading is fabulous and beautifully clear.

So where are the Book Markers!!????
Is there anything you would change about this book?
So you hire David Suchet to read the entire Bible and he does a Magnificent job as you would expect. Then you package it all up and decide not to put in any labels on the chapter makers. This is the Bible, a collection of BOOKS and those books have Chapters and verses. now if you want to listen to lets say the book of John, you have to Guess where it is and what chapter to jump to.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, add correct labelling to the Chapter markers so they reflect the book they are jumping to.
Probably the best read Bible audio book, let down by the implementation of the editing and compilation of the audiobooks themselves.

Great reading, awful organization
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Like all the other reviews say, this is a really fantastic reading of the bible, but audible have put no thought whatsoever into it's organization.
The books chapters aren't labeled, and don't even match up with bible chapters (i.e you can sometimes have the end of one book and the beginning of the next one in the same chapter).
There is a pdf which lists out the books to chapters, but it's a separate pdf and not viable on your mobile.
Who was your favorite character and why?
.... god? .... it's supposed to be his book after all
What about David Suchet’s performance did you like?
To be honest its a more or less faultless reading, great diction intonation etc
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Complete NIV Audio Bible?
I'd fix the chapters!
it really shouldn't be hard, even if it can't go into the detail of specific verses, splitting each biblical book into a multi-part download would allow them to be sorted individually and then the chapter numbers could at least match up with the ones in the bible

A humbling privilege to hear.
David Suchet narrates the Bible in such an inspiring and engaging manner. His voice leads you into the words so that you really want to listen to the message of the Bible. I even could engage with Revelations in a new way!

Great for walking the dog!
Where does Complete NIV Audio Bible rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Good performance from David Suchet, easy listening.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Complete NIV Audio Bible?
Although I have needed to put in the bookmarks for the books manually, now that that is done, it is easy to navigate to chapter 1 of each book, although you could easily bookmark every 5th book.
Which character – as performed by David Suchet – was your favourite?
Impossible to say, given that it is the Bible. I used to listen to the bible through my bible app but it required a data connection, so having this downloaded makes for easy listening.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No. I have been doing HTBs BIOY app, but sometimes I get behind and need to catchup, listening as I drive, run or walk the dog. Also listening and then reading through helps me to focus and reflect on what I am reading.
Any additional comments?
Great audio bible, no regrets.
