When Alice tumbles down, down, down a rabbit-hole one hot summer's afternoon in pursuit of a White Rabbit, she finds herself in Wonderland. And there begin the fantastical adventures that will see her experiencing extraordinary changes in size, swimming in a pool of her own tears, and attending the very maddest of tea parties.

Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!

Un enregistrement exceptionnel : les cinq volumes des "Misérables", un des plus grands romans de la littérature française, enfin disponibles en livre audio. Jean Valjean, Cosette, les Thénardier, Gavroche, ou encore Javert sont autant de noms qui résonnent au-delà de l'histoire qui les a fait naître. Ces misérables sont décrits à la fois comme des archétypes du genre humain, mais aussi comme les produits d'une société génératrice de pauvreté, d'ignorance et de désespoir.

Bruno, un garçon de 10 ans, vit seul avec son père Christian. À l'approche des fêtes de fin d'année, Bruno prétend ne pas aimer du tout Noël pour ne pas contrarier son père qui lui, déteste vraiment cette période de fêtes d'année et refuse de célébrer. Une après-midi de décembre, Bruno croise dans son immeuble Belana, une petite fille qui s'avère être la fille de la sorcière de Noël italienne Befana. Elle l'invite à prendre des biscuits et du punch et lui révèle que son père Christian est... le fils du père Noël.

Description

This set includes five tales of extraordinary heroism, marvelous intrigue, and exceptional courage that have inspired and amazed people for generations. Gulliver’s Travels is Jonathan Swift’s comic tale of an Englishman who journeys to four fantastical and exotic lands filled with unforgettable characters, from the pint-size Lilliputians to the giant Brobdingnagians. The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood takes us to Sherwood Forest, where the brigand and his band of “merry men” rob from the rich to give to the poor — to the consternation of the Sheriff of Nottingham. The Jungle Book transports readers into a wondrous world where danger lurks behind every drooping vine and the law of the jungle is the key to survival. Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island follows young Jim Hawkins as he learns the ways of the buccaneer from a group of seafaring miscreants, including the nefarious peg leg, Long John Silver. White Fang by Jack London recreates the forbidding world of the Yukon Gold Rush, where a wild dog must endure violence, hardship, and bitter cold on his journey from savagery to civilization.

Great stories, difficult format

Any additional comments?

This is a great set of stories well read/performed. The only complaint we had was the format: it's a HUGE book to download and it's nearly impossible to find a given book in the collection as they aren't differentiated. So, we just listened to it straight through and enjoyed the classic stories, but will find it hard to go back and listen again.

Wonderful

Would you consider the audio edition of The Adventure Collection to be better than the print version?

Having the ability to "Read" on the go, any audio book is better than a print version in my opinion. The only exception, is the lack of note taking. But if you are listening for pleasure, Audiobooks are the eay to go.

What did you like best about this story?

I particularly enjoyed White Fang and Robin Hood the most. They were a joy to listen to. The other stories were a little less enjoyable, but not by much. As a 25 year old guy, I found these "children's stories" far more enjoyable than most stuff written today.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

All 5 narrations were magnificent. The accents were wonderful.

Any additional comments?

Only change needed, is better labeling of the books and chapters. There is no separation and if one wanted to re-listen to a particular book, you would have to guess where it was.

Bad labeling. Great stories though.

I wish the books and chapters were clearly labelled and not just lumped together as chapter 1-151.

Very entertaining

This collection did not disappoint! All the stories were great as was the performance of each narrator. I would highly recommend this for adults and children alike. I think children should be at least eleven or very well read due to vocabulary.

Robin Hood was worth getting through the book

Jungle book and Gulliver's travels became boring and hard to finish. Treasure Island, White Fang, and Robin Hood were great!

Simon Vance narrates Robin Hood.

Mostly great stories

What did you love best about The Adventure Collection?

If you have a lot of time to listen like me, this is a book to spend a credit on.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

I think Brilliance studios in general has the best recordings I have listened to so far.

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed most of these books. The only parts I did not enjoy was the last half of the Jungle Book and the last half of Gulliver's Travels. There were simply too many Travels.

Long John Silver, White Fang, and Little John are now some of my favorite characters in fiction.

No separation for books

I enjoyed several of the stories including treasure island, but Kipling became painfully redundant and the story of Robin Hood is told better in an abridged form. Would have liked an indexed book design.

Overall Great Collection

Would you listen to The Adventure Collection again? Why?

Probably would only listen to Treasure Island or Robin Hood again

Who was your favorite character and why?

Robin Hood.

Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I've listened to other Simon Vance performances and as always he was wonderful.

Any additional comments?

Main problem with this is no track listings. You can skip chunks of it (I have already read White Fang so I skipped through much of that). Either way though in case anyone wants an idea of the individual books...here's approximate timestamps for this collection:

Treasure Island 0 - 7hr14min
The Jungle Book 7hr16min - 12hr26min
Gulliver's Travels 12hr27min - 22hr22min
White Fang 22hr23min - 30hr27min
Robin Hood 30hr28min - End

Each section begins with a bit about the other so these are very approximate times, but should give anyone looking to skip around between books a general idea of where to stop your fast-forwarding.
