Andy,
 
    My apologies, don't think my arithmetic brain was in gear yesterday.
It's currently 2 dollars to the pound, so you were closer than I was.
Thanks.
 
Regards,
Léonie.

9 US dollars is more like £5! - Andy

Vicky,
 
    For classic books like this, it's always worth checking out Audio Books
4 Free. They've usually got the type of thing you're after and do indeed
have Frankenstein.
http://www.audiobooksforfree.com/download/default.asp?refnum=1000370
<http://www.audiobooksforfree.com/download/default.asp?refnum=1000370&gg=1&p
g=1&bt=Frankenstein> &gg=1&pg=1&bt=Frankenstein
 
 
    Despite the title of the website, there are multiple options for
downloading books. You can get a relatively low quality copy for free, but
if you select the most expensive options available for Frankenstein, you're
looking at about $9, or £3.50 approx. in UK terms. It's really worth going
for this option if it's feasible, as your son won't be distracted by the
quality of 
the recording.
 
HTH,
Léonie.

How soon does he need to have it?  If he has a few weeks you might be able
to get a copy read for the purpose from them, if they do not already have a
copy in stock, in which case they could send it out to him almost
immediately.  I understand that they do supply many course Texts for
Students etc.  
I do not have their phone number to hand, but if you were to ring Customer
Services they would certainly put you  through to the Transcription service.
Customer Services are on 08457 023153
Hope this helps 
Tony

Hi I don't know if any one can help, My son is studying A level English and
needs a copy of of Mary Shelly's Frankenstein on some sort of talking book
format so he listen to it on an ipod. 
Does anyone have a copy to sell me or know of where I can obtain it?? Also
it has to be the un-abridged version.

Thanks and kind regards Vicky.
