About this listen

Through the sands of the scalding deserts of India, two loafing vagabonds follow a half-scribbled map, heading for a land they hope to conquer.

I note one complaint about the narrator, once i got used to.it, Kiplings tale took over.
RK.was a great story teller, and this was only memorable as the story was made into a movie starring Michael Caine and Sean Connery.

Good old Yarn

Brilliantly written and brilliantly read. The incredible story of two con men who attempt to swindle the tribes of the Middle East. Highly recommended.

Fantastic.

Ok, I know this was a cheap buy, buy why, WHY, do we have British stories being narrated with American accents? I find this really hard to listen to. It just feels like it's all over the place. I'd never expect to hear a Stephen King or a Jim Butcher book narrated in a British accent... What a waste... I think I'll just give it back!

Ugh...
