I started this book with another recording, and when I ran out of time on the download switched to this. I had made a mistake not starting with this one. This recording is far superior, a delight, and has been a wonderful companion to my morning barn chores for weeks. I am at a loss as to what to do tomorrow, I will miss this wonderful story so much.
If only Edmond Dantès had remained Edmond Dantès...

These five stars are wholly for the narrator. The books starts out promisingly but by about chapter 56 I had given up and read a synopsis. However, a standing ovation is in order for the talent and time that David Clarke gave to this book. Merci.
Outstanding! Simply outstanding!!

Utterly classic book, and fantastic story, masterfully read by Mr. Clarke, who is definitely one of the top 10 LibriVox readers. My most sincere thanks to Mr. Clarke for reading this, I would recommend this audiobook to anyone looking for a nice, long listen! :)

David Clarke made this book such an enjoyable listen. I laughed, I cried and I looked forward to listening every day. The story itself is truly incredible, I see why it's a classic. Thank you so much Mr Clarke

I love this. David Clark is an amazing reader. He used different voices that made it easy for the listener to understand the story better. More power to you, Mr. Clark. I'm a huge fan.
Wonderful Narrator

This was a great book to listen to during my daily commute. Thanks so much to the reader who did a wonderful, professional job, complete with a ton of different accents. The story itself has a great beginning, and if you can stick it out through 20 or so tedious chapters in the middle, it does pick up and get much more exciting again (like it was in the beginning) about 2/3 of the way through.
Amazing

I put off reading this for so long bc of the length but a friend whose opinions often match mine told me it was worth and oh boy this was so good. And the reader does a fantastic job he does multiple accents as well as speaks French and Italian in some places. This guy is probably one of the best readers I've come across on librivox I wish he had recorded more
