I purchased this 64 CD Audio Bible specifically because it was a "Voice Only" edition. I did not want a "dramatized" version because I didn't want music and characters portraying the stories - I simply wanted one person reading the Scriptures as if it were a person reading the Bible to me - and that is precisely what I got in this "Voice Only" NIV Audio Bible on 64 CDs. It is exactly what I wanted. The reading is smooth with a perfect cadence. There is another Audio Bible available called the "Listener's Bible" and I have that one as well, but that reader sounds like he's trying to be a "show off" - in my opinion. The reader of this Audion Bible is Charles Taylor and I think he does a wonderful job! He draws the attention to the text and not to himself, which I really appreciate. I also wanted the CD Audio version and not the MP3 version. It seems to me as though it's getting more and more difficult to get the audio version. Those were my criteria - Audio version (not MP3) and Voice Only (not dramatized) and the New International Version translation - and this 64 CD set had it all! I am so happy with my purchase. I listen to the New Testament CDs in one location and I have the Psalms in another location and I have the Pentateuch in still another place. I highly recommend this Audio Bible - especially if you want to hear just God's Word and not be entertained.Read full review
So far, I find it interesting and see myself and some of my traits in the "unsafe people. I also see myself and other of my traits in the "safe people". At my age of 79, and being with Jesus Christ for over 45 years, he is bringing balance to my life. To God be the glory. I would recommend the book to others.

I purchased the Audio Bible for my mother this year for Christmas when we were talking and I realized that despite raising 6 children as Christians, she had never read the Bible cover to cover. She is now losing her eyesite and can no longer read but she is really loving the Bible on CD. I chose the voice only version because I knew she would want to hear the words clearly. She is now amazed at the information that is in the bible that she was never aware of. She is planning to go to Jeruselem in February, at the rate she is going, she should have listened to the entire, 64 CD Bible by then. I believe this will make her trip even more meaningful to her. When she received her Bible she was tearfully happy. I am very glad that this was the gift that I chose to give her at this time in her life.Read full review
I really love these cds. The way they are narrated is easy on the ears and the background music really fits with the narration. The music doesn't overpower the narrator. I don't have a lot of time for reading and when I do my eyes don't always feel up to it so these are great. The fact that they are in a more compact format so that they fit on just 6 cds is really great. I checked out other versions but this one by far is the best that I found. I highly recommend this product.
Just the Word - no background noise, etc. This is just what I wanted, someone with a good voice (who doesn't think he's reading a Shakespearean play!) read the Word of God. Some other readers have English accents and really lay it on thick (I think) when they read.
