I don't really know how to put this into words. I actually couldn't listen to this book because of the narrator's bizarre style. Long inexplicable pauses/hanging on the last word of most every sentence.
Listen to a sample before buying. Stories are classics but make sure you can handle the truly awful narration.

worst narrator ever
