Love, love, love! Your adaptation was spot on. I've listened to it twice and am eagerly awaiting your Persuasion podcast.

Wonderful Performance

I truly, truly enjoyed this book. I've saved it in my library and plan on listening to it again. The ending of each episode with the reading of the credits was a hoot, I always listened to the very end. The Ballarat National Theatre is currently working on "Persuasion", which I hope will be available on audible.

Great but some voices are super quiet

I really enjoyed the first episode of Pride and Prejudice except that some of the voices were so quiet that I almost couldn’t hear them (particularly Kitty, Lydia and Mary in the background). I’m definitely looking forward to listening to more and hope this improves.

I listen to this all the time...I love it!

Since I was a teenager, this story has been my favorite. I read it at least once every year. Now that I discovered this podcast, I listen to it every night before bed. I love it!
