No organisation, not brilliant narration

No chapters or breaks between books, no organisation at all except for arbitrary sections which don’t follow book chapters or can just start a book half way though a section. Narration was ok, not great quality audio and tone was a little flat so hard to engage.

Seek better alternatives

I'm glad I only spent about a dollar on this. The narration wasn't very inspired, the lack of segmentation into chapters (and even stories!), the immense size of the file, and the constant need for my phone app to redownload the book all led to a lacklustre experience. I ended up noting which books were included and seeking different Audible editions to listen to them individually. It's worth it if you don't have much money and want all these books, but there are definitely better versions of all of these audiobooks out there. I recommend those.
