There is a perfect copy on a well known pirate site i found. Really is a amazing book. However, some of the readers do not have an excellent command of the English language and made it difficult to listen to portions of the book.
Those with less than perfect English should not volunteer to read. Ultimately, it provides a less than desirable listening experience. Reviewer: Alex - November 30, Subject: Book This is an awesome book, I loved the first part especially, although the revenge is pretty sweet too. I liked the ending also, overall probably my favorite book. Alexandre Dumas is the man! Reviewer: Jamie - September 13, Subject: Fanastic - but could be improved This is an amazing story, very much worth following through to the end.
Some of the readers are quite fantastic and it was great to hear such an array of voices. However, I concur with past comments that certain chapters may need to be re-recorded.
I hate to draw attention to one reader in particular, but the voice of the 25th chapter, who may be from Portugal, is one of the hardest to comprehend. I get the impression she struggles with the meaning of certain words which are not expressed correctly and appear to be glossed over too quickly.
I don't mean to offend, I think she does overall a great service by volunteering, and her recordings improve throughout the book. Still, chapter 25 demonstrates how hard it can be to follow the story line. Reviewer: Elizabeth - August 29, I wish I could hear this fascinating story everyone is talking about! I am afraid I got lost in all the terrible narration starting in the 5th chapter area.
I tried to push through but I just gave up. I absolutely love it!!! Reviewer: Ry - July 17, Subject: Hard to Listen Too Was enjoying the book but after about the 28th chapter I couldn't understand the accent of the reader, I had to stop listing to it because I couldn't understand It.
The readers in the middle had a French accent that made it impossible to understand most of it. Finally had to give up and borrow it from the library. Reviewer: User - May 31, Yes! A great book. Readers are mostly good, but the story really is the best part of this.
Reviewer: Noah - April 15, Subject: Good book. Questionable recording. As the previous reviewers have said. The book is quite excellent, but some of the narrators are just not good. The first two are okay and they last you to chapter 5, but after that the third reader makes listening quite unbearable.
