Would listen to the narrator again happily as he has an easy and pleasant voice.
The audiobook was amazing, lots of different styles but all tied in wonderfully, very happy and impressed.

Utterly fantastic

I am a great fan of Lovecraft and generally this anthology did him justice. I'm just disappointed with the way it has been presented. The editing is poor in that spoken sections often miss the ending or beginning causing a stilted performance and the need to replay to see if the missed words can be discerned.

Great content bad editing

About half the stories where great, the other half so so. Narration was spot on though.

Great narration but not perfect

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Structural writing devices such as the occasional use of very short chapters and chapter subtitles detract from the flow of narrative at some points. The final index is difficult to follow in the absence of what I assume would be helpful formatting in the written text. Nevertheless a worthwhile listen for those who have read some of HPs work.

Diverse and engaging performance

I planned to listen to this book every now and then as a means to kill short amounts of time, but I gotta say, I went through it in several days. Very entertaining!

Brilliantly entertaining!
