Another famous site with audiobooks in English, but with lyrics. On the main page you will see a menu where you can choose your favorite genre. Any piece can be downloaded for free or listened to directly on the site. The main advantage of this resource is that for each audiobook you will find the text of the work, it is located under the links to audio recordings. Therefore, if it is still difficult for you to perceive speech at the hearing without an auxiliary text, we advise you to stop your choice on this resource.

3. Freeclassicaudiobooks.com

There are few works on the site, but this resource still deserves attention. Each book is divided into chapters, you can listen to them online or download for free. The quality of audio tracks is above average, native speakers read books at an average pace, but, again, there are no texts to the recordings.

5. Audiobooktreasury.com

The site, which has both paid and free audiobooks in English. To choose your own free book, go to the “Free Audio Books” section and select your favorite genre.

Audiobooks in English for children, read by Robert Manche. Children's writer himself voiced his fairy tales.

7. Podiobooks.com

One of the most popular resources where you can find free modern audiobooks in English. Here are mostly presented works of not very famous authors.

9. Asbook.net

Russian-language site with audiobooks in English. Easy to navigate, records are laid out on the same principle as on English-language sites: the work is divided into chapters, each of which can be listened to separately.
