Being very fond of period piece books, this was no disappointment. Very good. Kept me interested from beginning to end.

Good story. A little drawn out, but I suppose that part of the older novels. Good listen, good narrative.

It was hard to stay focused on the story early on but as it progressed, I stayed up late into the evenings as I was hooked.

The book was very entertaining. I enjoyed it thoroughly. The narration would have been more enjoyable had there been more continuity. Such as having the same people reading for each character throughout. Loved the gentleman from Big Bible. Wonderful voice!

This is an amazing book. Long, complex with characters of great depth. So many twists with locations that come to life. Greed, titles, wealth, love, insanity, family bonds, art, and redemption. This book has it all. One of the best that I have read.

This was a good novel and had great narrators.

The Readers with the American accents didn’t fit in with the tone of the story

Great book very good old time story Loved the different voices of narrators

Loved it.

This is a very long story (25 hours+) but worth it. Wilkie Collins originated the detective novel genre (with "Moonstone") and this is a suspenseful story that kept me riveted. Collins was a great friend of Charles Dickens but he is a lot less wordy than Dickens. His language is more straightforward which I prefer. I found the use of the English language to be so much more full of color in this work than in modern works. Again, it is worth the 25 hours. I only gave three stars for the narration because the recording was put together by volunteers - most of the main characters' voices were British but some American which didn't work well. Also, one could tell that the readers were not professionals. The recording is in the public domain which is why it is free. Still, I would recommend it. .
