Dodgy information.

The information does not make clear that the accompanying PDF does not contain the full text, only the vocabulary. If you want a transcript, this must be obtained at cost - with a 50% discount admittedly - from teach yourself website. This cannot be read on a kindle. The other short stories I have have audible and full text for one price. The stories are a modified version of the Russian set I have which works fine for me. Why they have this other arrangement I cannot understand. It’s irritating and a bit dishonest but you can get round it. The concept works well, but I could do without the extra hassle and cost.
I haven’t listened yet, but I expect it to be pretty good.
