This series is AMAZING! Especially if you enjoy Radio Dramas This series is AMAZING! Especially if you enjoy Radio Dramas. it is not mono toned and dry like some audio books.
Wonderful, but be careful of current description I love these, and have been looking for them for years. I had copies as a child that were scratched and I’m so happy to have finally found them. However, note that the description is incorrect as THESE ARE ABRIDGED. They tell the whole story, but they are not word for world audiobooks. They are adaptations performed by a full cast on BBC radio, and they are excellent, but do not buy them expecting them to be unabridged editions.
