Any initial issues have been comrehensively solved on this - everything is now indexed perfectly and very easy to navigate. If you're having any problems I just deleted the download from my app and re-downloaded, and it worked fine.

Now it's all working I can say it really does have amazing performances across the board (Stephen Fry + Dickens!), incredible stories, and really solid production. Nothing not to like here - fast becoming my go-to in my library.

This is a really wonderful collection of novels and great value. But I cannot imagine why anyone would go to the effort of putting it together, getting some artwork mocked up, publishing it, and then for 272 hours of audio, consisting of 15 different works, fail to name the chapters in a way that helps listeners identify which novel starts and ends where. A dreadful oversight which does rather ruin the experience.

Great but dreadfully organised
