“I think the actor’s voice great. Naturally the story is. Sure - as a Brit I’d first looked for a “true” English narrative but the depth, tone and character interchange of this mature vAmerican English voice was very soothing and didn’t detract at all from the beautiful joy of the author’s words....”Read full review »

“Talk about turning a classic into a jumble of words.
Listened to the first episode for 5-10 minutes and gave up.
Breathe, for goodness sake draw a breath and slow down.
Moderate, all the words don’t have to be spat out like a machine gun.”

“Narrator is very good. It is a tad slow, but I won’t take any stars off for that because you can just listen at double speed. That’s how I listened, and it was great.”

“The woman who reads the book does an excellent job. Dickens wrote some long sentences, and she reads them so you can follow along and understand the idea. The story is so very good and she does it justice.”

“I have read Tale of Two Cities a couple of times. I consider it to be a timeless tale I can easily relate to. Dickens’ use of imagery phrasing to convey the emotion and atmosphere of the settings in his novel is the work of a master weaver of epic scope. Ms. Akers’ reading does great justice to...”Read full review »

“Amazing to get this audiobook for free, I highly recommend it to others.
What a story - twists and turns, tension and excitement, Dickens at his masterful best.
Great if you want a dramatisation of the French Revolution too.”

“Glad to see a free audiobook, but I wish it was formatted as one, rather than as a podcast. Speaker is dry and slow; using the double speed function on my iPhone is a must. Book is long, drawn-out, and unnecessarily wordy, but that is no fault of this work. Fell asleep while listening first time...”Read full review »
