Good stories ruined by poor narration
The collection contains some great tales, but the narrator’s eccentric delivery makes them almost unendurable. Very disappointing.

couldn't get past the overly dramatic narrator

5 minutes narration too much
Given the story a three rating as a I couldn’t bear the narrator long enough to rate the actual story.
