Murder on the Orient Express: B1 (Collins Agatha Christie ELT Readers)

Nowhere in the product description nor even on the cover of the book itself does this say that it is NOT the actual book. My son needs sto read the real book for school, but this is some kind of condensed, abbreviated version, apparently for people whose first language is not English. Really annoyed that we now have to wait another few days for the real book to arrive and that I'll have to deal with a return. AMAZON: Make sure your product descriptions are accurate and clear.

This is not the entire book. I ordered for my 13 yo son to read for school and it is not the original, entire and complete book. It is a condensed version for readers whose first language is not English. Now I have to go to Barnes and Nobel because we waited 4 days to receive.

Ok

Agatha Christie is one of the best-selling author of all time. Her novels have sold over two billion copies thus far, making her truly the Queen of Mystery! Murder on the Orient Express features the legendary Belgian Detective, Hercule Poirot. The book is incredibly written, the timing is seamless, and Hercule Poirot is brilliant! Set on a train bound for London, but stalled by snow, Hercule Poirot must unravel the events that led up to the murder of Samuel Ratchett. Within the Poirot series, this book is crucial in terms of the character development of Poirot. Overall a wonderful book! Additionally, I highly recommend the audible narrated version of this book! Hugh Fraser is amazing in his narration of the Hercule Poirot series!

I was very pleased with it.
