I really enjoyed listening to all 13 cds (16 hrs!) of this. Dickens often wrote episodes for magazine distribution so that folks could read aloud to each other. So this is immensely easy to listen to, much easier than swimming through a great volume of prose. If you've only seen the movie, you've missed half the book - it ends a little differently too. I don't know why it says Movie Tie-in in this title, it's the full text unaltered for any movie production. Good narrator too.
