Starred Review. Edward Hardwicke, who played Dr. Watson to the late Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes in the celebrated television series, is in top form for this second installment of Conan Doyle's classic mystery stories. Hardwicke's narration is perfect as he again brings to life the lovable Watson and guides the listener through some of Holmes's most exciting and intriguing cases: the adventures of the Sussex Vampire, Creeping Man, Speckled Band, Crooked Man, Greek Interpreter and Naval Treaty. As the great detective gathering clues, utilizing his famed methods and unraveling each mystery, Hardwicke provides a superlative rendering of these treasured stories, which might leave listeners longing to hear Brett's Holmes reply to Hardwicke's Watson, and creates an audio book that will be adored by Holmes fans and provide newcomers with a compelling introduction to the gentlemen at 221B Baker St. (Aug.)

This review is from: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Volume 2 (A CSA Word Classic) (Audio CD)
Edward Hardwicke replaced David Burke as the second Watson to Jeremy Brett's seminal Sherlock Holmes on the BBC Granada television series. His portrayal of Watson was warm, authentic, arguably the best Watson of any time.Here Mr. Hardwicke performs an additional six canon adventures of Sherlock Holmes. This is not a mere reading, but a well crafted performance of the stories by a gifted actor. While there are many audio adaptations of Conan-Doyle's Holmes, this is by far the best I've had the privelege to listen to. Mr. Hardwicke imbues the stories with new life and energy, astounds and enthralls us just as the mysteries themselves do.
