"Great Selection"
Great selection of tales. Some readers better than others but, overall, very creepy.
still tilting at windmills, after all of these years.
"If you can take the accent"
Like Lovecraft?
As a Lovecraft fan it is easy to slip into these stories.
Sound less like a London Public School Boy.
The stories are good but the narrator is just too posh to handle. It made me feel like I was sitting in Regents Park eavesdropping on two old friends talking.
I would recommend listing to a preview of it before buying; if you like the narrator go for it!
"Please God, make it stop!!"
The stories were great.
The performance was beyond dreadful. There actually were several different narrators, and it would not be fait to diss them all. One of them had several stories assigned to him and his voice was like nails on a chalk board. The rhythm of his voice was bizarre -- he cant possibly actually speak like that, nor surely does he think that the authors intended their work to sound like that. It was AWFUL.
