One of the most powerful stories I have ever listened to. The reader has a clear and pleasant voice and carries you through the story seamlessly. The character voices are done very well and keep in line with the personalities. I will definitely be listening to many more!

Not the Best Dickens Story

Excellent reader. Probably the most often quoted tale by Dickens, and second most well-known behind A Christmas Carol. An average Dickens story is better than the the best from most other authors. Rife with symbolism and metaphor. A timeless story of political import.

Brad is an excellent narrator
