This audio books gives a great start to Shakespear
This book is a kind of a teaser. The fact to be appreciated about the book is that it summarizes the classics to the best possible extent. One can recap the stories they already know or can get a short summary before deciding to dive into the actual complete versions.
However, this is not a complete collection of Shakespear tales. For example, the title of Julius Ceaser is missing from this collection.
Overall, this is a fine audiobook and well narrated.

Didn’t miss anything
Hated Shakespeare since middle school because of the king James era language, but always thought I was missing out on knowing the stories. Good to know that I did not miss anything important

Incomplete Tales
This title of Shakespeares Tales is not complete. I wish I had understood how the word "complete" was being used before I made the purchase. If you desire a summary of a title which is completed this title is perfect.
