What I enjoy most about Voltaire is how he combines philosophy with satire. The Huron gives an excellent outsider perspective of the events happening in France in the 17th century.

The story is very good and the recording is pretty clear. However, the last book would not load for me and the reading is sometimes very slow in pace.
