Reviews

No track titles


(1 stars)

I downloaded the entire 5 volume collection, only to discover that volumes 3-5 have no track titles (they don't show the name of the story/poem--they just say track 1, track 2, etc.), which means that you have no way to intelligently skip ahead to a specific poem or story. For a regular audio book this wouldn't matter so much, but in a collection like this, it makes the audio book almost unusable.

Not bad


(3.5 stars)

But honest the dude reading Spirits of the Dead sounded like he was reading it in the toilet lol I love Bob but did he say Edgar Allan Pow on Lenore lol
