From AudioFile
With insinuative under- and overtones punctuating crisp, direct narration, Tom Parker is the perfect vehicle for both the bemused Dr. More and the satirical author himself. Hats off to Blackstone Audio for finding the perfect reader to match Percy's timeless satire. P.E.F. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
