Reviews

Fantastic!


(5 stars)

Another fantastic Scarlet Pimpernel book, done by a very extensive cast of readers. The readers were quite enthusiastic and it would have been a painstakingly throughout job cutting all recordings and putting it together so well! Thank you to the ladies, gentlemen, and anyone identifying otherwise, for your hard work!

Very "Dramatic"


(5 stars)

As this was my 1st "Dramatic Reading", I'm not sure my review is anything but biased, however, I loved it overall, though really had to roll my eyes at certain points, as the "Players" were so over the top, it became ridiculous. It is, after all, a melodramatic reading.....therefore, BRAVO, BRAVA, BRAVO!!! Haha

Very Well Done


(4 stars)

I am ridiculously in love with this series, and the book is a great ending done quite well. The characterization feels accurate, the voices were not too boring nor too overdramatic; it felt like listening to a play and wasn't distracting at all to the story. Thanks for your contribution to my obsession with this series!

a triumphant ending.


(5 stars)

a spectacular ending to a spectacular series. also the dramatic reading made the book come alive.. almost as good as karen savage ;) and that's saying a lot.


(5 stars)

appreciated the variety of voiced characters, very grateful for their excellent service and gracious gift of time and talent to mere mortals. well done, so much easier to follow story when the many voices are more distinctive than when read by one or two people. thank you all!

Perfect!


(5 stars)

This book is truly the perfect wrap-up of the series! I love it so much! The readers all did phenomenal, especially sir Percy (kind of a must). Some of the American accents were jarring, but on the whole I highly recommend this recording.

Really enjoyable


(5 stars)

I really liked this audio book. the readers were good and it was fun to hear the characters in different voices. The book wrapped up the series well, although I'll be sad to move on from Sr. Percy!

Very entertaining!


(5 stars)

All of the Scarlet Pimpernel stories are great! I can't pick a favorite. I am only sorry now that I have listened to them all, that there are no more . Thank you Libravox volunteers.
