"Spanish for Europe"
be aware that this is castilian spanish, not north/south american spanish.
"Very good, except..."
This audiobook needs a downloadable companion booklet as some other language courses have. It helps to "see" what is being heard. It can be hard to distinguish between some letters when heard, but seeing them makes the learning much easier. Otherwise, a great Spanish course for the price.
I have also purchased Rapid Italian, Vols. 1 & 2 and am grateful for the accompanying booklets that aid my learning.

"An O.K. Review of Basic Castillian Spanish"
Not too bad if you just want a quick and dirty review of the basics.Remember, this is European Spanish, not Spanish as it is generally spoken in The Americas. Anyone could benefit from the basic vocabulary and grammar, as long as one remembers that local dialects and customs will vary.
