While this CD set is in a very nice carrying case with a magnetic clasp, and the sound is clear, unfortunately the background music (with an ocassion drum beat etc) is distracting, and, and for me personally, the person narrating it has a 'southern preacher' sound that I don't care for. If you prefer a southern preacher reading this and background music then you will really enjoy this. I'm used to Alexander Scourby with no music/dramatization, so this was a let down for me.
