most of the readers were fine to excellent, and no missed lines/words, but several are dry, dull, or hard to listen to.

good stories mostly


(3.5 Sterne)

A collection of interesting tales. some good, some not so good. must say that the reader of the last two stories had the most hilarious German accent I've ever heard.

Yay! Love Andrew lang, hate mixed reading! Wish you'd just choose the reader and be done with it.
