A definitive reading
Martin Jarvis is unsurpassed in whatever he reads, but this is truly a classic rendition of a classic story… Audible take note and get Mr Jarvis to read the whole of the Dickens canon as a collection! Wonderful….

A Captivating Performance
Another excellent reading by Martin Jarvis. He may not be to everyone's taste, but for me this is the definitive audio version.

A classic beautifully read
Martin Jarvis does an excellent job of reading this story. Like the best narrators, it seems like he is telling you the tale from memory rather than reading from the page. If you have a long journey to make over Christmas then this is the perfect length to put you in the holiday mood. I loved it.

Essential Christmas listening
A completely engrossing emotional rollercoaster. Hearing how Scrooge awakens his kind self after years of misery is like watching night turn to day.

Wonderful Christmas Story
Christmas? Then it has to be A Christmas Carol read by Martin Jarvis 🎄👏
An irresistible tale which has been a Christmas tradition for too many years for me to remember.
Martin Jarvis is an extremely talented storyteller and performs this tale so well that he draws the listener in and doesn't let go until the inspirational conclusion.

Wonderful narration
I enjoyed this immensely. Martin Jarvis is amazing in his ability to create characters through his narration and express the feelings experienced by them. And of course it is a brilliant story.

Loved it! Everyone Should Read This At Christmas!
I have fallen in love with Charles Dicken's stories. And especially listening to them on audiable. The narrators bring the story alive and makes listening a pleasure. Martin Jarvis did a wonderful job and he has the perfect tones and voice to listen to. Other Dicken's I highly recommend are Great Expectations with Matt Lucas narrating and Dombey and Son with David Timson narrating. These experiences have made me want to listen to all of the Dicken's novels. And there is a message in all, Dicken's was a great observer and turned this skill into his writing and creating characters. So much depth and humour in all his novels. Enough said, this is a must read at Christmas!
