Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
This is a perfect audiobook for fans of British drama who also love the classic British investigator. David Timson embodies Holmes in a style that takes him to the top but never over. His Watson is equally correct--sturdy and rather protective of Holmes. But Timson's skills really shine in the secondary characters--the loathsome stepfather in "The Speckled Band," the conspirators in "The Red-Headed League." They're perfect character-actor interpretations. His interpretation of the narrative sections, read in Watson's voice, revels in the drama without overplaying it. As always with Naxos AudioBooks, a fine selection of classical pieces introduces and ends the stories. A.C.S. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

VERY ENTERTAINING,
By Lamont (ROCHESTER, MN USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes: The Speckled Band, the Adventure of the Copper Beeches, the Stock-Broker's Clerk, the Red-Headed League (Classic Literature with Classical Music) (Audio CD)
I found the overall quality to be very good. The only way I would improve it would be to have either Basil Rathbone or Nigel Bruce do the reading.

My husband requested an audio edition of fiction by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. This collection arrived a few days after I ordered it from Amazon. It is a wonderful reading of several of Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories. David Timson is a masterful reader who creates a mood and makes each character recognizable. For my part, I recently purchased a CD Walkman, and now I can go about my chores while enjoying classic mysteries.
