The idea of listening to a story from the 1800s did not initially intrigue me, but then I saw David Tennant listed among the cast and figured I could give it a try while processing new books at work (I'm a librarian by day). This audio dramatization is brilliant. Much more enjoyable than sitting down to read the original text would have been, I'm sure (although I am curious about potential deviations from the source material).

The story itself is pretty much what I expected, just a little spicier. Overall, a great way to fill the silence for two hours at work.
