Ratings and reviews

This is by far the worst version of Frankenstein I've ever heard. Even the Librivox versions are better than this. The author's inflection is all over the place, words are mispronounced… this book is unlistenable.

Love it! Yes it's a computer voice but the best quality and most natural currently available. Free reading of a sci fi/horror classic? Yes please, keep these coming Googs!

this novel has been on mye 'must read' list and i am eternally grateful to have had it read to me in audiobook format while doing other daily activities. . .many thanks for having it free and it was NOTHING what was expected. . .the film industry really had a hey day turning this into something completely different from the original text. . .mye only 'complaint' is that it was read with a masculine voice as one feels it ought to have been in a feminine voice as the author was a VERY talented female. . .very ahead of her peers and a master of storytelling. ~cheers~
