Chapters vs Episodes
I would of gave 5 stars overall but it irritated me that there was no way to have the episodes play consistently. Instead of continuing to the next episode as if it were the next chapter, it comes full stop and you have to fart around to get to the next one. A playlist option would be nice so I dont have to drop what I'm doing to queue the next up.

Amazing
Stephen Fry could narrated someone killing me and I would still enjoy it. This was a fun and interesting look into the Victorian era and the secrets they tried to keep. I hope they make a second part.

Hilarious History
Turns out that people are people, no matter where or WHEN you are. Narrator has the right tone, sounds knowledgeable enough to be taken seriously, flippant enough so it's not TOO % seriously

Captivating, imaginative storytelling!
Highly recommend this series - the voice acting and storytelling are top notch! I've listened to it multiple times over as there is so much to learn, yet, you almost don't realize you're learning due to the fact that you're delightfully entertained from the moment you enter this world with Stephen as your guide.

Fascinating
Very interesting exploration of the occasionally dark underpinnings of Victorian life. Fry’s interest and joy in discussing these topics is evident and drags the listener into these back alleys and opium dens with him. Would recommend to any lovers of history and those who appreciate a good scandal.
