Review of Hugo from DK Publishing
Books+CDs, No Pronunciation Scores, Cheap, ★
They offer 5 European languages, and have changed formats many times, so you may find older versions. Current versions include book only ($10), or a longer book and 1 CD ($40-70).
The CD is mostly in the target language, so you need to read along in the book to understand it. It seems hard for a complete beginner to pick up good pronunciation with it, but may be quite helpful for intermediate learners. Amazon reviews address some of the older versions.
