To było super!! Rzadko czuję, że rzeczywiście mogę rozwiązywać zagadki podczas czytania, a Arsène Lupin stał się moim crushem.

I am a big fan of the Arsene Lupin stories. I listened to this as an audiobook narrated by BJ Harrison. This book is a collection of stories which introduce the intrepid burglar. There is a lot of exposition in these stories as the characters are being introduced. Some of this is handled well by the author, but some of it is awkward. The narrator does his best to ease you through the awkward moments. In fact, I believe this narrator elevates the story and improves it immensely from what you might perceive if you were reading a printed version. The pacing of the narration is excellent and each character speaks in a distinctive voice that brings them alive.
The first four stories could actually stand together as a novella, and they are worth the price of the entire book. We meet Lupin without knowing who he is, then he is arrested, imprisoned, and escapes. We meet his nemesis, Detective Ganimard, who will play a bigger role in future stories.
In the final story, Lupin meets Sherlock Holmes, setting up the conflict which will occur in the next book in the series.
I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys classic detective stories in the vein of Sherlock Holmes.

Es un libro bastante entretenido. Cuenta en cada capítulo una proeza distinta de nuestro protagonista. Algunas historias pueden ser más interesantes que otras, pero globalmente está bien.
Lo que más me ha gustado y destacaría es la peculiaridad de Arsène Lupin como ladrón y sus múltiples cambios de identidad.
Sin embargo, es cierto que me han aburrido algunas historias y dedicaba muy poco tiempo a narrar el procedimiento y explicación del robo, que era lo que más podría interesarme.

Es soll ja manche Leute geben, die weder Gaunergeschichten noch Heists mögen, na ja, ich gehöre offensichtlich nicht dazu. Wie sich eine literarische Idee wandeln kann, wenn jemand anders sie erzählt. Dann wird aus Sherlock Holmes dem exzentrischen Detektiv Arsène Lupin der Gentleman-Gauner. Ich muss schon sagen, dass ich sehr viel Spaß damit hatte. Vor allem, weil die Fokalisierung der einzelnen Geschichten wirklich gut gemacht ist. Eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die gerne Heistgeschichten und Detektivgeschichten mögen.

Eine Reihe unterhaltsamer Storys für alle, die schon immer wissen wollten, was passiert, wenn Sherlock Holmes ein Verbrecher ist. Ich mochte besonders die Erzählweise - ohne groß zu spoilern: Wer erzählt hat, war zum Teil eine super Überraschung!
