ebooks Download

Following the 1893 publication of what was meant to be the last Sherlock Holmes story, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle relented under the pressure of intense public demand and irresistible financial offers from British and American publishers and revived the celebrated sleuth. This audiobook collection of six unabridged stories includes "The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire," in which a mother may be both murderer and monster; "The Adventure of the Creeping Man," in which a professor's mysterious malady hints at darker things; and "The Adventure of the Speckled Band," in which a woman is terrified she'll join her sister in death at a creepy country house. "The Adventure of the Crooked Man," "The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter," and "The Adventure of the Naval Treaty" wrap up this second volume of the audio series read by celebrated actor Edward Hardwicke.

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.

Excellent!
