PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This unabridged audio edition of Dickens's classic novel of poverty, effort, and persistence puts the emphasis on unabridged, clocking in at nearly 40 hours but dedicated listeners will be rewarded with an engaging and entertaining reading from narrator David Horovitch. In Victorian England, Nicholas Nickleby finds himself penniless after the death of his father. Assisted by his cold and parsimonious uncle, Ralph, Nicholas undergoes an array of trials and adventures working as a teacher and actor before finally succeeding in providing for his family. Horovitch wisely doesn't attempt to update or revise the author's familiar world. Instead, he reads with a careful tenor and subtly shaded array of voices that perfectly capture Dickens's prose and characters. Harrumphing and stuttering and tittering, Horovitch turns in a winning performance that fans of the author are sure to enjoy.

Nicholas Nickleby
it is really good yet long and a little boring
Great Read
Despite the length this book is worth all the time, a truly magical read.
Not To Be Betterby By Nothingby
This is a book one must read. It manages to get more powerful as it progresses and more involving. All of the dozens of characters are indelibly unique, eccentric and funny. The 1600 pages wizz by in mere days! Treat yourself.
