Customer Reviews
why?
Why take such a wonderful collection of stories as these are and then allow them to be presented in this manner? The narration is so quick and stilted that all feeling and atmosphere is completely lost and you are left feeling on edge and hugely disappointed. The one good aspect of this is that I have learnt the importance of the preview button! Do not waste your money!
