This is an excellent, page-turning Sherlock Holmes pastiche by noted author and historian Barry Day. It explores the fascinating "what if" proposition supposing the latent return of a legendary murderer, whose "signature", left upon his victims' skillfully eviscerated bodies, alerts Holmes and Scotland Yard to his unmistakable presence anew in England. To quote the cover of this recently released book: "Sherlock Holmes meets Jack the Ripper, Oscar Wilde, and THE Woman!"

And to further delight listeners, actor David Ian Davies once again carries off the roles of all the characters, every single one, male and female, as an energetic, fast-paced, fireworks-brilliant ensemble.

Reseñas editoriales

David Ian Davies, veteran actor and product of the London Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, brings a smooth baritone and expressiveness to the accents, nuances, and adventure of Barry Day, OBE, and his energetic reimagining of fiction and fact - including not just Arthur Conan Doyle’s iconic detective Holmes and his sidekick, Watson, but also Jack the Ripper and Oscar Wilde. The mystery begins with the presentation to Holmes and Watson of a gruesome murder and ends as they race to head off those infamous four horsemen, harbingers of the end of days.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The most incredible one-person audio you have heard. Has to be heard to be believed. David Ian Davies creates theatre in a book." (Charles Prepolec, one of the most respected Sherlockians)

One of the better pastiches out there, but the audio quality is really bad. I thought it was just my download, but no matter what I do, there are periods of skipping and just poor overall quality.

Fun story, terrible audio quality

Would you consider the audio edition of Sherlock Holmes and the Apocalypse Murders to be better than the print version?

I love keeping my hands busy and my mind full - and having a wonderful narrator makes it even more so.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

There was steady action, and the introduction of Oscar Wilde was an interesting aside. I don't like to give away much more plot than that - but this is a shorter story - and so it does not have some of the depth of charcter of some of the other novels.

But definately an interesting read.

Any additional comments?

One reviewer had problems with the audio quality of this Audible book - on my Kindle I had no such problem.

Enjoyable!

This is the first Barry Day - Sherlock Holmes pastiche that didn't wow me. It was good. David Ian Davies did his usual wonderful one-voice performance. The story, however, left me a bit disappointed. The return of Irene Adler could have been handled with a more believable story. The insertion of Oscar Wilde didn't quite work. Not enough was known about the villain to make him truly frightening. It is my opinion that the story was just too short. For it to have been believable I think we should have been told more about the people who populated it and why. It is still a fun listen, just not a great one.

A good Barry Day/ Holmes pastiche
