Reviews

Nice


(5 stars)

I'm fond of these stories and it's lovely to have a single narrator version. Peter Yearsley does his usual competent job. His reading style is a good fit for these gentle stories.


(5 stars)

A good selection and as Peter says, very like M.R. James but without his knack for terror . Read in a suitably gentle tone. Please keep them coming Peter

Pleasant ghost stories


(4 stars)

As others say, like M. R. James without the creepiness. Good variety. Perfectly read, as always, by Peter Yearsley.


(5 stars)

Loved the stories. Love this narrator. Old fashioned, gentle stories with a delightful main character.
