What made the experience of listening to Elvenquest the most enjoyable?

Looking forward to every episode, I listened to these in the gym, made me look forward to going!

What did you like best about this story?

Great performances, well written episodes every time, lots of laughs, I could go on and on.

Which character – as performed by the narrators – was your favourite?

Hmm, a tough one, Stephen Mangan was great in this, it was a good ensemble cast, perhaps Alastair McGowan edged it as Lord Darkness.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I'm not sure about being moved, but I laughed in every episode.

Any additional comments?

I've already recommended this to a few people, great series, good value (24 episodes, 4 series in one collection), and won't disappoint.

I just didn't know what to expect with this, but it had us all in hysterics all the way listening and my daughters reaction after the first half hour was funny.
She never used to concentrate listening to stories for long until we discovered Audible, now shes happy to listen for a number of hours to the story or play, esp when they have good narrators or actors

Non stop laughter. Had us in stiches all the way
