Wouldn’t download on any device.
Couldn’t even get this to download on any of my different devices. Managed to listen to a few pages before the file reached a corrupted part and deleted itself. Pointless.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME THIS WILL RUIN AUDIO FOR YO
I am a devoted audio listener but this has to be the worst thing I have ever invested in. I honestly do not make this sort of review lightly but I have never ever heard such poor reading. I might have believed this was a technically created reading as the pace and tone of the reader was really unreal.
You have to give great marks for Austen's novels - they are wonderful - but the presentation offered here could turn anyone off listening to audio story listening.
I should have realised at the really cheap cost that there was something wrong but I honestly do not see how anyone has the nerve to charge for this. I lasted 10 minutes. The mean thing is that the sample does not reflect what the real audio book truly sounds like - that piece must be the best recorded part of the whole 76 hours.
I could not believe how bad the reading was and skipped to other parts to see if the bit I had listened to was a blip - it was not.
So please if you love Austen (as I do) go look for another presentation.

Wooden performance
As a fan of Jane Austen since my teens I was looking forward to listening to the complete novels. Alas! I'm afraid this narrator - apart from mispronunciation of some English names; provided, at best, a wooden performance. After 30 minutes I had to switch it off. I returned only for love of the material . I have P&P performed by Rosamund Pike - which I would highly recommend.

An American Robot
A couple of minutes of this was all it took. At a price of only £0.73 it may seem like a bargain but it isn't.

Not ‘Complete’ despite the title.
This purports to have all but it lacks Sanditon. It starts with the incomplete ‘The Watsons’ so the incompleteness isn’t why it’s not there. I was linked to a kindle version which did have Sanditon so I didn’t look that closely.
I opened it to find there is no table of contents identifying which story is where except here in the selling page and that’s when I realised Sanditon wasn’t listed. I skipped through starting each chapter to make sure.
I can’t comment on the voice that many others don’t like because at that point I let it play without listening just so I could review the incompleteness.
Lastly, I have no idea why o bought it for cash instead of using a credit. But that makes it non-returnable. Which sounds illegal. But here we are.
