Well read, classic stories. These make great background listening, the narrator is clear and the stories are good but a bit longwinded due to the style of writing.

probably some of the best realistic sci fi, fantasy from 1800s. Jules Verne what a legend

very much worth it

I love these stories but unfortunately here they are read with what comes across as a total disconnect from the story being read. The narrator sounds like he is reading a bus timetable. Unfortunately that carries the same feeling over to the listener.

Edit: Come the third story, "Around The World In 80 Days" the narrator comes alive. His voice, pacing and tone seem to fit this story much better than the previous two. This one is much more special.

Audio quality is good but occasionally sibilance or a strange mild distortion creeps in. (I'm not talking about the narrator's own way of saying 's', this is in addition to that. Disappointed.

brilliant stories but marred by terrible narration
the narrator constantly hisses through his teeth, reads like he is narrating a technical manual and does not pronounce places names properly. Saville Row, Sydenham, Marylebone, and Cromarty are constantly mispronounced. this is lazy narration and could not be bothered to research before reading
obviously just collecting a pay cheque

Great stories but awful narration

Epic

In Jounrey to the. Centre of the Earth the main characters are Prof Lindenbrock and his nephew Axel. I can see no reason why you would anglicize their names and it ruins it.

why anglicize the names ?
