I like them very much. They are abridged but the excising is very skillful and does not result in discontinuities. I gather Mr. Woolf did the editing himself, and I'd congratulate him. They aren't intrusive at all. At the same time, at about 6 hours, there is no feeling of compression. Highly recommended, and Mr. Woolf's reading voice is particularly nice - easy to understand even if one is not familiar with British English, and very pleasant.
