Book Reviews of The Hound of the Baskervilles

Book Review: The Hound of the Baskervilles
Summary: 5 Stars

The Hound of the Baskervilles was assigned as a high school summer reading selection. We ordered the book on CD, which made the assignment somewhat entertaining and more easily accomplished given the length and tone of the book. The book itself is, of course, a "classic" Sherlock Holmes murder mystery. However, by todays standards, the mystery is rather tame and, in my opinion, the writing style is cumbersome for young people. The CD is delightfuly read/performed and I highly recommend the CD vs. the written text.

Summary of The Hound of the Baskervilles

This is a rich month for audio books. In the Darlington Substitution Scandal David Stuart Davies fleshes out a brief remark made by Sherlock Holmes in A Scandal In Bohemia

The story is read or rather acted with remarkable virtuosity and panache by the author's near namesake, David Ian Davies with credible characters and ingenious plot, and an atmosphere of excitement we are plunged once again into that romantic chamber of the heart, that nostalgic country of the mind, where it is always 1895. What more could we wish for? The CD also includes DSD's story The Reichenbach Secret, a credible interpretation of the Final Problem.
