i enjoyed this book when i read it as a child, but found this audio version stilted and the pronunciation of some words difficult. I won't be listening to it again.

The narration is incomprehensible - not worth even trying to follow the story as you have to concentrate so hard just to understand it
Story rating is based on the book rather than the audible

a classic novel with a great storyline rendered useless by a reader who not only mispronounced words to the extent that I was left confused as to what they should have been but also neglected to pause at the appropriate times to indicate character changes ( which could not be deciphered by voice as he maintained the same monotone throughout the story).
if you want this book in audio format, don't buy this one.

great book, ruined by the reader

Probably an interesting book but the narrators voice was very difficult to understand so I didn’t finish the book as this spoiled it for me and I couldn’t follow it
