Compelling from start to finish
Tony Britton is a wonderful voice for Francis' books and this story is a good example. A simple yet moving storyline with themes brought alive in key characters worth listening to over and over

Dick Francis wins again!
What made the experience of listening to 10-lb Penalty the most enjoyable?
Tony Britton's voice is perfect for these stories
An excellent story which, although I read the book years ago still managed to take me by surprise
What other book might you compare 10-lb Penalty to, and why?
Shattered is similarly excellent, different and compelling
What about Tony Britton’s performance did you like?
Confident, clear and varied according to character - he's just great, I could listen to him all day every day
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes
Any additional comments?
I bet Michael Connolly's Harry Bosch stories would be great as Audio books and read by Tony Britton would be gripping

Another enjoyable experience from Dick Francis
Although a pensioner and new to audio books I can only admire how easy I found the transformation from hard print to audio.I have read most of Dick Francis's books but must admit that listening to Tony Britain deliver each chapter was 10/10 of a top quality book.

You sure this was Dick Francis?
Terrible plot, ridiculous characters, just can’t believe this was a DF novel.
I have enjoyed DF books for years. this one odd going back, tried to finish it but couldn’t last the pace!
