Stories ruined by terrible narration.

I listened to the first story, then skipped to the start of several others to see if the narration improved. Unfortunately it didn't vary. To me the narrator sounded like a cross between a female Uriah Heep and the witch from Snow White. I couldn't listen to any more, irrespective of how good the stories may have been, so I returned it. I'd advise others to listen to the sample before considering purchasing this audiobook.

Reader is just unbelievable. couldn't possibly get through this audiobook. Stories themselves may well be fine.
