The Return of Sherlock Holmes (Version 3)
Gelesen von David Clarke
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
(4,794 Sterne; 2330 Bewertungen)
The book was first published in February 1905 by McClure, Phillips & Co. (New York) then on March 7, 1905 by Georges Newnes, Ltd. (London) and was the first Holmes collection since 1893, when Holmes had "died" in The Final Problem. Having published The Hound of the Baskervilles in 1901–1902 (setting it before Holmes' death) Doyle came under intense pressure to revive his famous character.
The first story is set in 1894 and has Holmes returning in London and explaining the period from 1891–94, a period called "The Great Hiatus" by Sherlockian enthusiasts. Also of note is Watson's statement in the last story of the cycle that Holmes has retired, and forbids him to publish any more stories. - Summary by Wikipedia (11 hr 51 min)

I love this reader! I just wish there were more books that he’s done. I’ve never read any of the Sherlock Holmes books but have seen the movies. The books are way better. You won’t be disappointed.

Listening to David Clarke brings you back to the past. Sherlock Holmes is a classic detective that you can't forget. It's an original piece of art so advance in time. And with the aid of this audio recording you will felt the weary moments of those times where there is no technology. Despite of the problems, our famous detective can improvise using his own methods so queer and suave in its own way. I would likely like to join the librivox team to tell stories like David Clarke do. His voice as Dr. Watson was amazing and the way he change his accent to others characters brought a lot of drama to each scenes.
Excellent as always

David Clarke reads through these tales with his excellent way. I never tire of listening to the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson with the most fitting voices for each and every character. Sherlock himself would be delighted to listen, as well as Dr. Watson. A better job done I cannot imagine.
Great Reader

Audiobooks rise and fall with the quality of reading and David Clarke is a very good reader. Tempo, intonation, small pauses for change of scene and various voices for different characters make it easy to delve into it.
