Very difficult to understand the reader. Inconsistent volume.

Very difficult to understand the reader of this book. Inconsistent volume. Frustrating and difficult to stay focused.

enjoyed!

Was a nice listen. A Nice collection of homage to Sherlock Holmes. I enjoyed it very much.

definitely not sir Arthur's

a wide range of stories, some humorous, some silly, and as one reviewer stated a bit more detailed than would have been accepted in sir Arthur day. good narrator though.

It’s good it was free

Overall, the stories don’t feel very Holmesian. There were a few that stood out as being good, but some of them were frankly quite stupid. Throughout, I was disappointed by how little trademarked Holmes deduction there was in each story. There often wasn’t any real mystery at all, just the set up and then Holmes explaining what happened, it felt like most stories could’ve used an extra ten or twenty minutes to flesh them out further.

Mixed bag but all enjoyable

Mixed bag of stories- some faithful to canon and some not. But all are well written. It was included with audible Plus which is why I continue to pay for it
