Sir Derek Jacobi reads a collection of tales from the master of ghost stories, M. R. James, whose stories have for many years inspired the BBC's A Ghost Story for Christmas TV adaptations. M. R. James was described as "a man who, in company with Sheridan le Fanu, is the best ghost-story writer England has ever produced".Public Domain (P)2014 Audible, Inc.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This book, and volume two, are very good for the newcomer to M.R. James's work. The only downside to this anthology is perhaps the fact some of his best stories are not included. I would have loved to have heard Jacobi's take on "Casting The Runes".

An (Almost) Excellent Introduction.

It was enjoyable listen as long as you don’t expect to be scared by stories of this time period

Products of their time

I love British stories, especially Victorian-Era ones. Although ghost or horror stories are not my favorite genre, I do like a well-written tale (Dr. Jekyll, Dracula and the like). This first collection of M.T. James' work is entertaining, mostly due the exceptional narration by Derek Jacobi. The stories themselves are fine enough but not particularly scary or surprising. Overall the collection is an interesting look into the not too distant past.

Derek Jakobi is the best part of this collection

A defining performance by Sir Derek Jacobi. The stories themselves need no introduction and I’ve never tired of hearing or reading them again. And now for Volume 2 !

A corker. Best heard before Christmas.

Derek Jacobi is the perfect narrator for these stories, imbuing them with the gothic spookiness we all love so much. I find some of the stories just too open ended, without enough content to tie together any real sense of what the heck happened; nonetheless they are extremely gratifying, particularly when listening as opposed to reading, giving the sense that you are actually present at one of James’ famous fireside holiday ghost story readings for a select small group of his students. Transported to another world and another time; that is what these stories and Jacobi’s excellent performance does for the listener. I love them

Very enjoyable, full of atmosphere
