Amazing group of stories! Worth ever cent!

This was amazing book. Everytime I was finished with one section I couldn't wait to start the next. Each Author is a talented teller of stories and held the source material in an amazing light.

Almost akes to much effort to enjoy

as with several other reviewers.. I liked the stories, but this narrator.. had to listen to several parts over and over again to get a better understanding of which character was saying what. Too much work to make this an enjoyable experience in stark contrast to the other books in the series I've listened to. Bad enough in fact Ill be avoiding other works narrated by him.

Great Story

Great story and the narration wasn't bad himself, but where he recorded he sounded like he was in a bathroom...the ones we had in fourth grade. I loved the book but was a chore due to that aspect of the narration.

Good stories not so good narration

Good stories, if you like spies, espionage and are they like us stories then this title has them. The biggest problem though is the narrator. He sounds like he was reading in a large unfinished basement 5 feet from the microphone. It’s not a deal breaker but can be distracting. And has a fairly but not completely monotone voice. Some variation but a lot of times I was wondering if another character was speaking or if it was the same the had previously. Stories where great but a lot less grandiose in scale compared to the two previous titles in the series

original and inventive stories!

I loved the stories, all of them! This whole series has been fun and easy to pay attention to. However, the recording is echo-y, and the narrators southern accent is terrible. I almost had to skip those.
