I've bought about four or five of these complete works collections from this publisher. They are all exactly what they claim to be: the complete works of the author. For someone who doesn't want to be nickeled and dimed to death, these are a phenomenal value.

The answer is certainly yes. The Kindle format continues to amaze and impress me with its ease of use, and more importantly, with its guilt free reading function. The guilt free reading function is the one where you can read a hundred pages on a Kindle, never look at that particular book again, and never feel guilty about having spent $15 + shipping on something you don't intend to complete.

The Dickens collection is wonderful because even if you're big fan of England's second greatest author, you're unlikely to have so many of his works, especially some of the more obscure ones such as "American Notes," which is a journal of his 1842 trip to the U.S.A. This Kindle edition gives you that excellent piece, and of course much more.

The only down side is that the Kindle will, if you hit the wrong button, take you back to the Home page or back to the complete list of all 200 works, so you can end up doing a bit of detective work to get back to where you left off. This isn't a problem with single-book Kindle editions.

This is another example of how the Kindle has, overnight, made vast and important literary collections instantly accessible to the ordinary reading public without having to make the public library your second home, or impoverish oneself, or devote thousands of square feet at home to musty, smelly, roach-loving old books.

Upon first acquiring my Kindle2 this collection was my first purchase. I was delighted to find that it is indeed the complete texts for the works of Charles Dickens. The table of contents makes it easy to navigate this substantial library. I immediately began reading David Copperfield and found the added convenience that every tenth chapter has links to any of the next ten chapters. This gave me some added mile markers by which I could note my progress. I found the text to be very accurate and well formatted. The only things I noticed in this area is the all caps for italics as noted in other reviews and from time to time a new paragraph was not begun when the speaker changed. This later occurrence was infrequent and is easily overwhelmed by the masterful writing and stories herein. For less than $5 this collection could not be passed up and I believe I got more than I paid for. I highly recommended this collection both for its completeness and storytelling without equal. So far I have read four of Dickens major novels and 3 of his short stories and have yet to find anything I don't love. Dickens cannot be missed!
