Short but extremely entertaining
This audiobook is filled with funny performances and "horrible" facts about Victorians. I enjoyed it quite a lot (I've already listened to it twice), but some of the voices were hard to understand without headphones. Very entertaining!

Terry Deary is in my top 5 best authors!
From a 7 year old reviewer:
It was great fun but some of the voices were a bit scary. I liked the bit about the poor children’s games because they were funny. Good because I’m learning about the Victorians at school and it has given me some facts to tell my teacher.

Vile Victorians By Terry Deary and Martin Brown
The Victorians really were vile espy in their every day life where the children were sent to work as a chimney sweep or worse still be sent to the workhouse.
I think that Terry Deary and Martin Brown have captured the vileness of Victorian England.
Many facts that you thought you knew actually weren’t the whole truth and many of the facts were gorier than your teachers tell you at school.
I also love how the authors have set this book in a history class and the main character knows a lot about the subject but the teacher isn’t really acknowledging his efforts. The teacher also gets annoyed when the main character works in a different way like making up a rhyme or a song so that he can remember facts about someone like Queen Victoria.
I highly recommend this book to gory stories about blood and diseases. Also to people who love brutal battles and crafty criminals.
I give this book 5 stars.

Fun and interesting!
Funny and full of interesting tidbits. I only wish it was longer, but then it probably wouldn't be so good. Highly recommended!
