Spanning events over thirty years, Volume I of The Papers of Sherlock Holmes relates narratives of Holmes and Watson's days in Baker Street, as well as particulars of Holmes's supposed retirement.

Follow along as The Master and his Boswell travel from the streets of London to the Kent countryside, to Oxford and Sussex.

Written in traditional canonical style, these stories provide fresh details of Holmes's world. Join us as we climb the seventeen steps to the Baker Street sitting room, where Holmes and Watson prepare to begin their next adventure. The game is afoot!

I enjoyed all of these stories. the narration was good except for the voice of Sherlock. for some reason the narrator would pause a couple of seconds after every word that Sherlock spoke. very irritating.

great stories

Enjoyed these tales very much. Sherlockians will also enjoy the many "Easter Eggs" hidden in plain sight throughout. I'm sure I missed a few, perhaps more, that I hope to catch during my next listen.

it's almost like reading Doyle himself . . . almost

good easy listening. Stories not to deep but a little to light hearted for a good Holmes narrative.

not bad but not ACD

very little mystery or intrigue in the stories. They meander about aimlessly at times.. but the narrator is horrible. I'm not sure why he is trying to characterize Sherlock Holmes as speaking in such a halting way but it's very distracting to the point of annoyance. His other characters are not much better. Only Watson seems normal.

Distracted by the narrator

Mr. Marcum, needs to keep finding more lost or hidden papers. A very well done novel. New Holmes Family information was great!!
