Stephen Fry's narration is spot on! The stories are just as incredible to listen to as they were when I first read them ages ago. Fantastic experience listening to this audio book. (One can never have enough of Sherlock Holmes!)
This DNF was more about the format of the actual book. I found such a large heavy book (with *tiny* type) to be less than encouraging to pick up - even though I was really enjoying the actual stories. I'll definitely be picking up smaller and individual copies of the Sherlock Holmes catalogue!

I've been a fan of Sherlock Holmes since I was a child so I thouroughly enjoyed having all of Doyles "Holmes Adventures" in two volumes. Much darker than the watered down versions that are usually printed for children and young adults

Not only is Sherlock Holmes a permanent favorite of mine, but this audio book version by Stephen Fry brings it to life in a way I could have never even imagined.
I have one word to describe Doyles work: Brilliant!!
"Sherlock Holmes is immortal because he has never lived"

I completed this body of work on audiobook. I couldn't help myself once Stephen Fry did the audiobook. He was amazing.
