Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Simon Vance can hardly be equaled as a Holmes narrator. He carries the stories with cultured British upper-crust intonation, merging seamlessly into characterizations that are distinct, believable, and enjoyable. The variety of characters comes across as realistic, and that includes the various British classes of the time as well as foreigners of various nationalities, including an accurate portrayal of Americans. The Holmes aficionado has quite a variety of productions from which to choose. But Simon Vance is among AudioFile’s Golden Voices; it’s hard to beat that. A 2014 Audie Award finalist.” AudioFile

Author Bio: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was a writer and physician most noted for his fictional stories about the detective Sherlock Holmes, the first scientific detective, which are generally considered milestones in the field of crime fiction. Before becoming a writer, he attended the University of Edinburgh to train as a physician, and it was from his teacher, Joseph Bell, that he learned much of what would inspire Holmes’s skills of deduction. He also wrote science fiction stories, historical novels, plays, romances, poetry, and nonfiction. After his son Kingsley died in the first World War, he became a convert to spiritualism and a social reformer who used his investigative skills to prove the innocence of individuals.
