I will say again that a narrator can make or break an audiobook, and Jacobi does such a wonderful job of these creepy tales that I thoroughly enjoyed hearing them again, read in his most competent of voices. He improved some stories I had read previously and not been as keen on, and made others more interesting just by his brilliant way of reading them. Whether you’re a fan of James or not I highly recommend this particular collection.
