Good tale great narration


(5 Sterne)

I really enjoyed this tale,read by a all star Librivox cast of readers. I found Isabel a very intriguing and a little difficult to figure out at times very charming. I found the ending a little bit different than I thought it would be, but a good one. Thanks to all the great readers and a very enjoyable time! This is well worth a listen.

Confusing and irritating

This book had some good moments, but mostly it was too convoluted to be believable. And the title character was just irritating.
