What if you could have a whole library of the most essential works of fiction in one elegantly designed app?Codex Millennia is part of the Codex collection by Words & Things and has been designed to provide the most complete introduction to English and European literature to those who need it most.

In all, twenty-five essential works of literature from the last three thousand years.
And as if that wasn't enough, it also provides in-app links to an online audio-book recording of each story completely free of charge, so that you can listen to the story being read at the same time as you read.
