I love David Clarke's Sherlock readings. He has a gift for giving the characters distinct voices so we know who is speaking without getting to hammy or exaggerated about it loke other readers often do. Plus very relaxing voice. A few places where the recording quality is bot the best, but still get five stars; it's a volunteer project, not a pro recording studio, and I like this guy's reading so much that it doesn't even matter.

Exciting and Brilliant!

I LOVE the Sherlock Holmes books!! I have been particularly enjoying these recordings by David Clark! He reads very well, and his voices make the story even easier to follow. He brings such life to these characters that I can visualize the whole scene while I do dishes, vacuum or commute. Thank You Mr. Clark for doing this project!!!!!
