This is the one!

This is the audiobook to download if you want to listen to Moby Dick. The audio quality is pristine - and the reader is fantastic. The affectations of his voice are wonderful and his characters are convincing in their accents. I’m very impressed.

Much Ado About a Whale Made Great Again by a Wonderful Narrator

The last time I listened to a version of Moby Dick I was overwhelmed
by all the tedious fact-telling about whales. But this narrator has the
knack for bringing out the beautiful rhythms and cadences of Melville’s
masterpiece. I would give it 10 stars if I could. This is, as others have said, the narrator you want for this book.

The Best Way to Walk During COVID 19

This is the most approachable of the SIX+ recordings. Campbell understands the science, the story-telling, the wonderful humor and the brutality embedded in this tale. No matter whether you are detail oriented; in which case entranced by the whale anatomy, phylogeny, visual and auditory acuity. No matter whether you love ironic humor; witness the preaching of a cook over the overcooked body of the whale. No matter whether the quest is to the grail. This is a story that is MODERN, refreshing and continuously captivating. It is great meal that should never end. Walk during the epidemic, earphones on.

Tim Campbell is the Best

I've yet to come across such an engaged narrator, who brings the story so alive.

A Book for the Ages

It had been many years since I last read Moby Dick, but like all classic literature it is timeless. What I enjoyed most with this read was I didn’t have to read it, but I felt like my father was there reading to me, acting out all the characters leaving me to envision the story in my imagination. Although audio books take longer, there’s nothing like spending time listening to a good story. And Moby Dick will never grow old because Melville takes you on a journey into the soul of humanity and beyond.

Moby Dick

This is a long story with some complicated language but worth the journey at the end of it all.

Awesome story, awesome narrator

I got this version based on the narrator. I was not disappointed. He was awesome. Did very well reading the story and the characters.

I normally shy away from such descriptive stories but really wanted to read Moby Dick. Finding the right narrator helped. Because this was SO descriptive. I learned more about whales than I ever thought possible. The story is just amazing in itself. What got me and really hooked me was the humor in it. That was surprising. I was not bored at any point. It is a very well written story. Even made me look things up online because my interest was so piqued.

I will definitely listen to this one again.

Wonderful

Enjoyed this very much, I’ve decided to just read Amazon Classics very good decision,actually think I might read Moby Dick a second time, I’m sure I missed some things due to the British accent. I do thoroughly enjoy Audible

A wonderful and spirited reading of this classic

I don't know if there is a better book about 19th century whaling or about obsession. I've read Miby Dick several times since I was a kid and I glean new insight from it each time.

The narration on this version is really good too. Melville can drag on in places but the narrator really pulls you through with his performance.

I highly recommend this book.
