Return of Sherlock Holmes (Version 3)

Book cover
By: (1859-1930)

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this latest installment in the Sherlock Holmes series. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle brings back the beloved detective in a collection of new, thrilling mysteries that will captivate readers from start to finish.

The stories in this book are cleverly crafted, with intricate plots and unexpected twists that keep you guessing until the very end. Sherlock Holmes' keen powers of observation and deduction are on full display as he once again outsmarts criminals and solves seemingly impossible cases.

What sets this book apart is the way Conan Doyle seamlessly weaves together elements of mystery, suspense, and even a touch of humor. The dynamic between Holmes and Watson is as entertaining as ever, and the supporting characters are just as compelling.

Overall, The Return of Sherlock Holmes is a must-read for fans of detective fiction. Conan Doyle's masterful storytelling and the timeless appeal of Sherlock Holmes make this book a truly enjoyable and engaging read. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a thrilling and intelligent mystery novel.

Book Description:
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.

22nd January 2018 - Return of Sherlock Holmes, chapter 9. (Adventure of the Priory School). I love listening to the podcasts, but occasionally it is spoilt by the narrator. In this instance, I found her hard to listen to. Her reading sounded as though she was reading a list, with little intonation, so that it was difficult to know when the characters were speaking, or she was just reading. Also not even a subtle difference between characters. Part 1 was the worst. In part 2, she sounded as though she couldn't wait to finish! What a pity.

Mark Smith's flow was good and the variation was marvelous.

Subject: A few good readers, some awful ones
The adventure of the golden pince-nez was well done, and abbey grange pretty good. Most were alright, if the wrong pronunciations for English names could be forgiven. The missing three quarter was far too quickly read, so much so that it was near impossible to follow some parts. Those that read without any regard for voice acting could at least have tried to adopt a less shrill and hurried tone.

Abbey Grange is very well read, but most are not so good.
