Summary
This audiobook includes unabridged recordings of 10 of Charles Dickens' great novels in one audiobook.
The novels included here are:
A Tale of Two Cities: a classic tale about two lovers caught up in the French Revolution.
Bleak House: a story about a endless court case over a disputed inheritance, and the lives destroyed by folly and a broken judicial system.
Great Expectations: one of Dickens' greatest novels, full of unforgettable characters such as Pip and Miss Havisham.
The Old Curiosity Shop: Nell and her grandfather are pursued by the evil hunchback Mr Quilp through a a grotesque London inhabited by eccentric characters.
Oliver Twist: the classic novel about Oliver the poorhouse boy, and his adventures among the London underworld.
Nicholas Nickleby: this colossal work follows the adventures of Nicholas Nickleby, whose father’s death leaves him to fend for his mother and sister.
Our Mutual Friend: Dickens' last novel, it is a sophisticated novel with a rare combination of social insight and psychological analysis.
Little Dorrit: following the life of Little Dorrit, the novel shines a light on the society and the government of the period and is a great work of satire.
Dombey and Son: a sprawling story following the complex relationship between shipping firm owner Paul Dombey and his daughter, Florence.
A Christmas Carol: Dickens' classic and sentimental novel about the ghosts of Christmas who help an old Scrooge find salvation. This story is credited with reviving the practice of celebrating Christmas, which had fallen into disuse in England, and has also spawned countless movie and television adaptations and rip-offs.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Corrupt!
Amazing literature but so many corrupted chapters that it really frustrated me that I didn't know how much I missed of each story throughout the ten as it became my practice to forward until the title I wished to listen to restarted.
what I thought was a bargain turned out to be a false economy. This should be corrected for future listeners, not the quality I have come to expect as it let down the well read texts. Shame!

Garbled recordings
I totally enjoyed the audiobook until Our Mutual Friend and again Little Dorrit, I did not bother with the rest. The books are overlapping in some places that all of a sudden I was listening to a different book altogether and not the one I am supposed to be listening.

Quality narration for a great storyteller
I have now listened to two of the ten stories, TOTC and GE and find the narration faultless and no failures in the recording. It great value for money and good to visit a classic writer such as Charles Dickens. If people find faults in listening then it may be due technical issues as such a large download and can be stored in multiple parts rather than single. Though I have not had this issue in this case and had recently all past downloads and reinstalled app on phone. A very enjoyable listen.

Problem with audio
Audio keeps stopping and then goes back and I try to play it, it goes back to the beginning. Annoying I couldn’t enjoy listening to.

So disappointed!!!
I'm so sorry, but I just cannot listen this man's voice. It sounds like it's computer generated. I downloaded these to listen to on holiday but foolishly didn't listen to a sample before doing so. Please listen before downloading. I'm so disappointed. Not for me I'm afraid.

Can’t listen to this man’s voice
I can’t listen to this man’s voice it makes it really difficult to follow the story. The emotion in his voice is constantly at the same note. The story also jumps ahead …. I’ve had to give up entirely on this.
