Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Story
The Republic poses questions that endure: What is justice? What form of community fosters the best possible life for human beings? What is the nature and destiny of the soul? What form of education provides the best leaders for a good republic? What are the various forms of poetry and the other arts, and which ones should be fostered and which ones should be discouraged? How does knowing differ from believing?

Story
Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

Story
The outcast youth Ishmael, succumbing to wanderlust during a dreary New England autumn, signs up for passage aboard a whaling ship. The Pequod sails under the command of the one-legged Captain Ahab, who has set himself on a monomaniacal quest to capture the cunning white whale that robbed him of his leg: Moby-Dick. Capturing life on the sea with robust realism, Melville details the adventures of the colorful crew aboard the ship as Ahab pursues his crusade of revenge, heedless of all cost.

Story
In the English countryside at the dawn of the Victorian era, life moves at a leisurely pace in the tiny town of Wall. Tristan Thorn has lost his heart to the beautiful Victoria Forester, but she is as distant as the star they see fall from the sky one evening. For the prize of Victoria's hand, Tristan vows to retrieve the star for his beloved. It is an oath that sends the lovelorn swain over the town's ancient wall and into a world that is dangerous and strange beyond imagining.

Wonderful rendition of two Gothic Horror classics!
It took me awhile to finish both books (I am not the fastest reader or listener), but I can honestly say I enjoyed every minute. I am a Universal Monster and Hammer Horror fan girl. I read both Frankenstein & Dracula during my college years (how I wish I had Audible back then!) The former was mandatory reading and has since become my favorite horror classic for various reasons - and thus, opened up a rabbit hole which lead me to reading the latter. Though, I will admit to preferring some of the film, comic, Manga and other media adaptions of Dracula better than Stoker's novel, I still respect it. Mr. Gildart Jackson is a fantastic narrator and voice actor. I previously heard him preform in the English adaptation of one my favorite anime (ironically, Hellsing Ultimate), and he is the sole reason I chose this version of Frankenstein & Dracula out of handful that were available on Audible. Needless to say, I was NOT disappointed!

two for one!
Pretty good deal. Two classics together. Having only been exposed to the Hollywood versions of these stories, I was impressed at the major difference in heart and soul and overall feel of both of these Stories. Frankenstein I found to be a bit whiney for my taste, but Dracula was really good and not at all what I expected. Well worth the credit.

Best story telling I've heard this far! Of course the books themselves are masterpieces but the reader brought a whole new level of enthusiasm! Will definitely listen to again!

Both good, Dracula's better
It was nice to get both of these together as I wanted to listen to one or the other. Dracula was definitely the superior book in my opinion, but both were entertaining.
