1) Audio CD Book The Hound of the Baskervilles (Adventures of Sherlock Holmes) by Naxos Audiobooks. Hound of the Baskervilles is a wonderfully exciting story. Watson spends a lot of the book without Holmes so there´s a little less pretentiousness than usual. The reading is done very well, though why the English think we Americans speak with such nasal voices I´ll never understand. I highly recommend this audio version.¤ 2) Audio CD Book The Hound of the Baskervilles (Adventures of Sherlock Holmes) by Naxos Audiobooks. Timson is an able interpreter of these beloved tales. Each character has individuality and the overall tone is faithful to Conan Doyle. The musical interludes are used sparingly and effectivley lending a heightened sense of atmosphere. Naxos is to be commended for putting the entire Holmes canon before an admiring public in these fine new editions.¤ 3) Audio CD Book The Hound of the Baskervilles (Adventures of Sherlock Holmes) by Naxos Audiobooks. As he does with all of his readings of Holmes, David Timson conveys a richness that is not to be surpassed. I used to think that Jeremy Brett playing Holmes in the PBS TV series was the best media representation out there. After to listening many times over to Mr. Timson´s renderings, I no longer have no desire to see the video version. The Naxos Holmes series is a real standout in the world of audio books.¤ 4) Audio CD Book The Hound of the Baskervilles (Adventures of Sherlock Holmes) by Naxos Audiobooks. I´m new to audio books. But, I´m afraid I´ve already been spoiled. I wonder if there could possibly exist a better combination of author and reader. Holmes sounds just the way you´d expect the great sleuth to sound. Deliberate, never rushed and always a gentleman.
The story is carefully woven and the presentation of the characters by Timson is masterful. I´ve listened to it over several times and each time I appreciate a little more the complexity and the detail. The Musical interludes are brief and sparse, but definitely compliment. If you like Sherlock Holmes, Timson is the right reader for the job. I´m buying the big collection now.
¤ 5) Audio CD Book The Hound of the Baskervilles (Adventures of Sherlock Holmes) by Naxos Audiobooks. This audiobook is by far the best audio version of "The Hound of the Baskervilles" available today. Reader David Timson does a masterful job. Unlike certain other audio versions where the reader rushes headlong through the book, seemingly without ever pausing for breath, Mr. Timson reads with expression, timing, and style. If you want to hear this novel read the way it should be read, buy the Timson version. It is superb.¤ 6) Audio CD Book The Hound of the Baskervilles (Adventures of Sherlock Holmes) by Naxos Audiobooks. The award-winning Sherlock Holmes narrator David Timson leads us through Conan Doyle´s most famous tale. This extended story brings the archetypal detective to the moors with his friend and biographer Dr. Watson to investigate the mystery of a beast terrorising the neighbourhood.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
