About this listen

Winner of the 2014 Audie Award for Classics

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes tales are rightly ranked among the seminal works of mystery and detective fiction. Included in this collection are all four full-length Holmes novels and more than forty short masterpieces—from the inaugural adventure A Study in Scarlet to timeless favorites like “The Speckled Band” and more. At the center of each stands the iconic figure of Holmes—brilliant, eccentric, and capable of amazing feats of deductive reasoning. By his side is Dr. John Watson, his steadfast assistant and our trusty narrator. This set is a must-have for every discriminating bibliophile and Sherlock Holmes fan.

Simon Vance is the best narrator I've heard - HANDS DOWN! The books and stories are what they are, all very good but he makes the characters and books come to life.

EXCEPTIONAL narration!

Where does The Complete Sherlock Holmes rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Sherlock Holmes ranks very near the top. I seldom listen to audio books for entertainment. Most of my books are learning materials -- non-fiction. I decided to get SR out of curiosity. It is nearly 60 hours in length!!

What did you like best about this story?

I can only imagine Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's intelligence. His material is applicable today 100 years later.

Which scene was your favorite?

WIth so many good stories, I cannot pick a favorite. Some are better than others.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

This book is a compliation of many short stories. So, there isn't a particular moment.

Any additional comments?

This book is excellent for an extended trip, or to break up a monotonous drive of flight. Make no mistake -- it is LONG. You get your money's worth.

A classic that is as timely today as ever.

Would you listen to The Complete Sherlock Holmes again? Why?

Yes, absolutely. The more you listen, the more you listen for clues and details about Holmes' cases.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Complete Sherlock Holmes?

When Holmes purposefully let a person go who had killed someone who was abusive and violent. Holmes had a sense of justice.

What does Simon Vance bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The performance brings each character to life. Not just a monotone reading.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It's too long to listen to in a single sitting but you can (and often want to) listen to a single story in a sitting. I often do during my commute.

Any additional comments?

Very enjoyable.

Love the stories

This complete Sherlock Holmes is absolutely amazing! The Narrator, Simon Vance was the perfect choice for this audiobook as he was captivating in his performance. All of the stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle are as captivating today as I'm sure they ever were and perhaps more when you consider how far ahead of his time he truly was when he wrote this amazing character. I would highly recommend this audiobook to anyone and it's a must have for true Sherlock Holmes fans.

Brilliant

Fantastic narration by Simon Vance!
These tales blend high adventure with all the subtle complexities of scientific method. I am both enchanted and transported to the enigmatic Victorian era, simultaneously perched on the cusp of modernity but with one foot firmly planted in the dark ages. All the wonder and mystery I enjoyed while devouring these tales in childhood is evoked in an instant.

Quintessential Holmes

I feel like there’s been some odd post-processing... maybe to shorten it by shortening pauses? Parts of it are bizarrely fast. I’ve been listening at 0.75x and that’s mostly good, aside from a few drawn out words. Story and performance are great. Wish the chapters had names to assist with navigation.

Oddly fast talking?

Best of the many I have collected. The fresh and bright energy of the reader gave newness to old tales. There were stories I'd not heard as well.
That is another big benefit from this Complete Collection. Highly recommended. -Guyr8s

Masterful performance!

I have listened to many recordings of the Sherlock Holmes stories, and these are among the best. That all the stories and novels are included makes this collection unique. If you want every part of "the Canon" of genuine Holmes stories in an audio format, this is the collection to buy.

There is a major problem, however. You will find it impossible to locate any story or novel except by trial and error. While each novel or story does begin in a new "chapter," there is no logic to the chapter division after that. And as is, unfortunately, its usual practice, Audible has failed to provide a simple index or table of contents in a PDF or other print format so that one can find the actual work or chapter one wants to hear. That omission almost destroys the value of this splendid collection.

Excellent Readings of all Doyle's Holmes Stories

Loved all 58 hours of this. The narrator was masterful in presentation and the author left you wanting more after every story.
