Fantastic

What a fantastic way to rediscover an old favorite. Kenneth Branagh was moving as always.

The gentleman's science fiction in a lady's mind!

Eloquently written, the characters were 3 dimensional with depth. Frankenstein tortures himself unnecessarily. The details leave questions.

Actually, a really good read

I'd heard so much about Frankenstein in general society that I just kind of assumed that this novel would be boring and cliche, or that I had already thought of the arguments and tensions of the story. I was wrong, quite happily so! This book is quick and engaging and well worth the read. Kenneth Branagh does a wonderful job with his narration. I very much enjoyed this Audible book

Great reading

Amazing story and amazing reading, only wish it was a longer version of the story.

The narrator did a marvelous job.

I loved this adaptation great job, bravo. I highly recommend this, especially for people who are not into the original text by Mary Shelly.
