Very nice

I was very pleased to find this, since I have having immersive difficulty reading the book myself and I have to have read it for school the only thing keeping it shy of 5 stars is the occasional stray from the book. A word changed here and there, or a word omitted. Once even a few lines omitted. And right before chapter thirteen, the narrator paused in the text to say “chapter thirteen” even though for my text, the chapter didn’t start for another page and a half. It is possible that my book is off compared to Conan-Doyle’s original text, but my copy is marked as complete and unabridged. Other than that, no complaints!

Voices Off

I have always loved this story but voice that Mr. Stevens chose for Sherlock was too falsetto. It kept taking me out of the story because it was so irritating.

slight problem

The narrator read clearly and the different character voices were good but throughout the reading words and phrases were skipped or the wrong name was read. made it slightly confusing when reading along with the book

A classic of epic proportions

Any additional comments?

A must read for all, especially those that like mystery but even those that dont. Classics like these are a lost but easily accessible treasure to most of the general public. Stop thinking if its worth buying and get it, because it is!

Great quality for a great price!

Some the accents were wanting, but that being said, for the price, it was fantastic!
