Critic reviews

"Since he received an Audie nomination for Volume I and an Audie Award for Volume II, it’s not surprising that Charlton Griffin gives another extraordinary performance in this volume of Sherlock Holmes works. In addition to impeccable interpretations of familiar characters - Holmes, Watson, Mycroft, and Lestrade - Griffin creates remarkably believable women. Griffin’s narration is fresh, flawless, and completely winning." (AudioFile magazine)

I have not listened to all of this performance but it is not as bad as other reviewers have said. It is great value, 70 hours for one credit,

The narrator is good but there a slips in the accent this is offset by the characterisations which mostly are good, female character voices a bit weak. The pace of the reading is good.

Better than expected

The stories cannot be faulted, Conan Doyle is simply brilliant. The narration is very good, but the weak performance of the regional and foreign accents lets the recording down a bit.

A good listen on a rainy day...

Would you try another book written by Arthur Conan Doyle or narrated by Charlton Griffin?

I would definatively if they were to be read with another voice actor for Sherlock.

What did you like best about this story?

The collected stories of Sherlock Holmes and his good friend the Doctor. What is there not to like?

If this book were a film would you go see it?

Definatively. Already did Watch the Sherlock movies with Robert Downey Jr. and Sherlock series from BBC as well.

Any additional comments?

I loved that I could get the Whole Collection of adventures about Sherlock Holmes on audiobook. But the voice acting for Sherlock Holmes was a Thorn in my ear. It could not endure listening all the way through, which honestly was a shame considdering the eagerness I had for getting started.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

A great addition to anyone's audio collection. Compulsory listening for anyone with even a passing interest in crime fiction.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

At over 70 hours I think it would take too much coffee to get through it all in one go!

Any additional comments?

This has got to be the best value for money credit I've ever used on Audible! Grab this book before they change their minds and make it a multi-credit purchase.

The best credit I've ever spent!

The stories are great, first time I've heard them.
The reader pronouncing Lestrade in the first story correctly and then in a future story pronouncing it another way entirely.

Would you be willing to try another one of Charlton Griffin’s performances?

No, not in a million years.

Do you think The Complete Stories of Sherlock Holmes needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No because it is the COMPLETE stories of Sherlock Holmes, a follow-up would be more stories thus making this INCOMPLETE.
