From 1939 to 1946 Americans gathered around the radio to listen to The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes-featuring Basil Rathbone as the high-strung crime-solver and Nigel Bruce as his phlegmatic assistant, Dr. Watson.

Witty, fast-paced and always surprising, these great radio plays, written by the prolific writing team of Anthony Boucher and Denis Green, are as fresh today as they were then, and feature perfect sound along with nostalgic war-time announcements, original narrations and radio commercials.

Well worth a listen

This author has picked up the Conan Doyle baton excellently. Good stories - very enjoyable and well read. As a Sherlock Holmes fan I was apprehensive of this book - but absolutely no regrets.

Hard to distinguish from Conan Doyle

This was my first Donald Thomas book and it fits in very well with everything Conan Doyle wrote. Different stories unfold, all very good and all of which sustained my interest until the end. The narrator reads it really well as well. I'd definitely recommend this to Sherlock or classic detective fans.

Dull and droning

From all the Sherlock Holmes on audible this must be the worst, dull, monotone, dreary.

Holmes in real historical settings

This is an interesting concept - the short stories are real cases in history and Donald Thomas has put Sherlock Holmes in as the detective that solves the mysteries. I really enjoyed it as it put a whole new level of complexity into what are often complex stories.

Well narrated by John Telfer again and I would recommend this book to history buffs as well as Holmes fans.

Disappointing book

I was really looking forward to reading this and listening to it but and there is a but, the first chapter was just a rehash of the original which was unnecessary and I found the author was putting words into Holmes or Watson that Conan Doyle would never have done. Very disappointed as i was really looking forward to this book.

Good idea, good narrator but a bit dull

Love the idea of injecting Homes into the narrative of real life crimes, but it's done with none of the excitement that you get in Conan Doyle's originals. These stories are very wordy and mostly lots of exposition, albeit capturing the style and tone of the originals. Modern copy cats forget Homes stories were meant to entertain folks, and they focus on style rather than substance.

Well, it's Sherlock Holmes

If you're after more Sherlock Holmes because you've listened to every story and watched every TV show, then this will do.

Good early mystery

This is a good, fun story, although it drags in spots. The fascinating part is watching the author explore the possibilities of this new genre, before the development of the conventions with which modern readers and listeners are well aware.

Good oldie

Good old-fashioned mystery. Loved the narrator.

Good story

Good story - one that keeps you on your toes. Might get confusing if you are not an experienced mystery reader. Very well read.

wind up the clock and put the cat out.

Everything good but volume would fluctuate. I am not sure if that was the recording or the narrator whose voice was excellent otherwise for this particular work as he lended a kind of BBC old radio aspect to the narrative.

waste of a credit

What disappointed you about The Passenger from Scotland Yard?

this book was boring slow and very hard to listen to...managed to get to chapter 10 hoping it would change but nope ....not recommended

John the Gielgud at Holmes

To say these are old recordings, they are a very good listen, especially if like me you are a 'SH' addict who listens everyday. I buy all Sherlock performances & have a nice varied collection of actors. Have got several of each title but because of the different time of era & actor playing Holmes & Watson, each one is completely different & most enjoyable. It is a treat to collect these SH drama's & I highly recommend. A great listen or in the background whilst passing away these cold days & early dark evenings as I get on with reading or other hobbies, or just to relax. I listen to one before I nod off to sleep each night. What a way to go! Enjoy :)
