![]() ![]() I love Poldark and have done since watching the 70s adaptation and then reading the first few books. It is interesting that I picture some as described in the novel whereas others take the appearance of the actors who played the parts in the 70s and more recent BBC adaptation. I raced through this audio book wallowing in the pleasure of listening to a well loved story about characters I have been familiar with for nearly 40 years now. What made the experience of listening to Ross Poldark the most enjoyable? You didn’t love this book-but did it have any redeeming qualities? SimonVance, Rupert Degas would have been superb, both readers seem to take the time to get to know the characters before they voice them Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Oliver J. I cannot believe a real Poldark fan would enjoy this audio book. ![]() I don't know if I can forgive whoever it was to find a narrator for this story. ![]() I don't understand why a more sympathetic narrator could be found, this is a swashbuckling saga set in brutal hard times in a bleak but beautiful landscape and it is read in the manner of a Home Counties afternoon tea party. This is a MUCH loved book, I've read it at least five times and was so excited to see it appear on audible's listing as I now find it very difficult to read but the narration is so appalling that I'm sending it back before I've even got half way. If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more? I cannot believe how awful the narration is ![]()
