    <reviewbody>I have always thought it would be good to read Dickens.  A friend recommended that I start with "Our Mutual Friend", but after several failed attempts, I finally decided to download it off of Librivox and instead try listening during my morning commute.  What a joy!&#13;
&#13;
I especially appreciate how several readers made a point to read chapters centering around a common characters.  There are many excellent readings, including quite a few chapters by Alan Chant, Andy Minter and Ophelia Darcy.  There were a few chapters were the quality of the reading, or the sound, was below par, but overall, it was an excellent introduction into the wonderfully drawn characters that make Dickens a master of British Literature.&#13;
