“It is especially appropriate that the man who played Sherlock Holmes’ chronicler in the popular series narrates these tales on audio. Hardwicke’s reading is subdued, but clear and precise.”
the Strand Magazine
“You should listen to these wonderfully atmospheric pieces…Edward Hardwicke has the perfect voice for this: resonant, old-fashioned, precise - everyone’s idea of a Victorian gent.”
