Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Bob Hartman's narration sets the perfect tone for this eerie adaptation of Frankenstein. His voice carries the weight of the story without overwhelming young listeners, maintaining just enough gravitas to keep them on the edge of their seats. The pacing is brisk, making it a quick and satisfying listen that feels both brief yet substantial. However, some of the more complex philosophical elements of the original text are simplified for younger audiences, which might leave older kids slightly wanting more depth. Nonetheless, this audiobook is an excellent introduction to classic literature, perfect for Halloween or any night when stories of monsters and mad scientists strike your fancy.
