I love this book! It had great character is so many twists and turns it made my head spin. But the storyline kept me going I wanted to hear what would happen next I couldn't put the book down. I'm so sad the story is over. I will have to check out more books by this author because it was amazing. The readers were also superb. Thanks Wilke for writing such a great book!

RETRIBUTION WINS!

First, let the potential reader be warned of serious misinformation presented in the description; the 7 hours furnished should actually be 37 hours (nothing truly surprising since it came from Wikipedia). The story itself is compelling and the length of it is somewhat justified by the meticulous examination of a brilliant, yet warped, mind. Collins again justifies his reputation as a master weaver of mystery and intrigue.

Great story, but read it yourself

While I loved the novel, the listening experience wasn’t enjoyable. David Barnes & Jordan were great, Alan Winterrowd quite good and easy to understand. However, after trying several of the remaining chapters, I gave up, downloaded the novel to my kindle and read it myself. Struggling to understand what the readers were saying proved to be too frustrating for me.

Stick with it!

Henrietta Higgins

This is such a compelling and fascinating book. Lydia Gwilt's letters and diaries are some of the funniest portrayals of the 19th century gender war you're likely to encounter. Some of the readers in Book 2 are challenging to listen to, but the story itself makes it worthwhile to persevere.

The story is good, some readers (like Valli) are terrible. Valli makes the book uninteresting, she mispronounces, has terrible diction and sounds a like a child learning to read. She also has a very disagreeable voice. I almost decided to skip the chapters read by her.

Excellent Story

Great story, all the way through. Wilkie Collins is becoming a favorite author of mine. The story of Armadale was interesting from beginning to end. A couple of the readers were difficult to understand, but the vast majority were very good.

Masterpiece

This book was simply incredible. Now that I have finished it (though long), I wish there was more. Wilkie Collins in my opinion is one of the most underrated authors of all times.
