Horrid narration

The narrator sounded drunk and couldn’t say certain words. The stories could have been good if not for the narrator.

Horrible Recording!

was this done in the 1980s? background music is extremely distracting. bad recording or microphone used, and overall I had to stop after only one or two minutes of listening. I jumped around within the book to see if it continued as badly as it started, and... yep

Don't even try to listen

I strongly believe if Ms. Agatha heard this man trying to narrate her books she'd clobber him over the head.

This has got to be the worst narration in history, that NOISE in the background is actually the best sound coming from this.

Bottom line if you'd like to enjoy the written work of AC either read it yourself or go find a different narrator FAST!!!

I couldn't get past 3 whole min of this noise and only then because I thought it was going to end. I give the story a 4 start rating because I went and listen to it elsewhere.

Atrocious Narration and Pathetic Production

The narrator sounds like he is drunk and that is on top of his inability to pronounce words correctly on numerous occasions... and the very distracting background music that is at times even louder that the narrator is an utter INSANITY … why on earth would there be a background music for reading a book... the music distracted me so much that I could not concentrate on the story and accompanied with the atrocious way the narrator was reading as if while inebriated I just could not at all tolerate the bloody farce of this production... and I cannot find a way to return it which adds an insult to the injury of having paid for this pathetic claptrap.

One of the worst recorded books

Narrator terrible.
Background noise very annoying.
Should get my money back.
Other much better recorded books of Agatha Christie's stories

The most Atrocious recording EVER

DO NOT get this! It had to have been recorded in an echo chamber with a hand held recording devise AND whoever thought that playing techno music throughout the whole thing was insane. It was as if someone purposefully did everything they could to ruin these stories! I could only listen to about 2 minutes of it before turning it off. I spot checked other chapters to see if the music was throughout and it was.

A sin against A Christy

Read the book Audio is horrible. Sounds like the reader is in a tin can. Probably the worst audiobook I have ever heard and I’ve been an Audible member/subscriber since a subscription came with a free MP3 player

Reader

The reader was hard to understand. His voice would go from too loud to too quiet.
