Thanks! In Germany It's considered a little weird for a 13 year old to like these types of stories, but I love them and the narrator has a really nice, relaxing voice

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Glad you like them! I think I liked them at your age, but that's quite a long time ago now!

[@bobhostetler8548]

Guten nacht.

[@phips39]

its not considered weird or shouldn’t be, it’s just in your head. be a bit more self confident

I read the Sherlock Holmes stories for the first time at age 13! Found lovely people to befriend over the years through a shared love for them

Max L. GT I understand: I am very dependent on these.

[@forest440]

Oh. My. GOODNESS! I commented on this a year ago?! Crazy. And I still haven’t changed my story reader, thank you for reading these.

[@jdtreadway]

I can never sleep when listening to them.... lol

[@valsptsd814]

I never read Sherlock. I have always adored the film and tv versions, almost without judgement. These audios are absolutely spectacular. I’ve listened to them more than once. I have terrible insomnia and the narrator is soothing. The stories are so visual. They help me sleep. Thank You..

[@nancyleader6967]

I have tried drinking water with cucumbers and peppermint leaves soaking in the water. Tiny sprinkle of salt. This creates Electrolytes. Like some odd magic, I sleep now. 😌🇨🇦I do love the audio books.

[@tomcurran1538]

I never really liked the film Sherlocks and never read them, except for The Hound of the Basketvilles. I am hooked on these now. Excellent presentation and characterizations. Watson is not portrayed as a bumbling character like in the TV version.

[@debraperez7171]

I have read all of Holmes in the past. But just like a child, I never get weary of hearing a story again and again. So pleased to find these audios. And kind Sir narrator, you knock my socks off. ; )

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Thanks Debra. Kind of you. Yeah, listening to a story is a lovely feeling.

Absolutely love these stories, I've been a huge fan of sir Conan Doyle since I was a small child, especially Sherlock Holmes. I also love Edgar Allan Poe, I would love to hear you read some of these. Great work. Thank you.

[@lianatheghost9357]

I agree! Poe read by Magpie audio would be marvellous!

An enjoyable experience, listening to this story while sitting on my settee with my eyes closed. Thank you.

[@veritas6335]

A settee no less!

[@martavdz4972]

Thank you so much for recording this story! It´s my favourite of them all. Because it´s so simple and minimalistic, yet so intriguing. It´s amazing how sir Arthur could paint such an intricate picture on such a small canvas. And I suspect, I also like it because I can easily put myself in the characters´ shoes 🙂 I have been a student, but I have never been a governess looking for an Indian treasure, an aristocrat attacked by a snake or a daughter of a London banker in love with a criminal 😀

[@kathwright5098]

I was startled to find that I have so much in common with Sherlock Holmes, homely untidiness is a quality I also enjoy ;-) love listening to your dulcet tones Greg. Thank you

In school, we are doing a project on different stories. The group I am in chose this story for our project. I didn't have enough time to read the story but, I was able to listen to the audio before the project. I very much enjoy the audio of this story. I believe this is one of my new favorite stories.

[@lianatheghost9357]

How did Holmes know so early on in his examination to ask the servant about which chair he chose to sit in? I guess it just made little sense to walk so far across the room while feeling terrubly "faint". Good catch, Holmes !

[@BeesWaxMinder]

I sometimes wonder how ACD came up with these stories! I mean, did he start with the scenario 1st & then worked out what could be a crime or did he think up the crime first and then start "dressing it up", as it were, in the characters and places that Holmes encounters...?

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Yes, interesting thought.

[@kyleung4330]

Its okay

[@claire5619]

amazing

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Glad you think so!

[@Vidrinskas]

These are great thanks. There is some inconsistency in Holmes' reasoning in this story though. He claims that the Indian student could not have guessed the nature of the papers but Gilchrist could. Also, the stationers appear to open at late hours.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Yes, that does sound a bit dodgy. Perhaps a stationers would stay open late in a university town. Who knows when the need for a broad pen nib or Power Rangers rubber might arise?

[@Vidrinskas]

@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio Maybe they did in the 19th century especially during exam time. Anyway, I'm being picky. Love all the stories and have done for many years.

[@GeldardtheGrey]

The Indian student only saw a series of papers rolled up that might or might not have been the proofs. Gilchrist definitely saw the proofs opened from his window and therefore definitely knew they were the scholarship proofs.

[@Perktube1]

Wonderful narration. But can you or Doyle point to the origin of the name Sherlock? Either its real origin or why Doyle chose that name?

[@lianatheghost9357]

The original name for Sherlock was going to be Sherrington, but Doyle had second thoughts and changed it.

[@t.morris1141]

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Anyone? I really can't remember the details. Have you tried looking the story up on wikipedia? They sometimes do a detailed synopsis.

[@GeldardtheGrey]

The three pyramids are mud, sand and sawdust remnants of the long-jump track and pit that were on Ghilchrist's sports shoes, indentations from the spikes on the underneath. Much the same happens with golf shoes.

[@jfvalencia1600]

Does someone know, how much did Sherlock Holmes charge for his services?

[@martyn6145]

Usually, nothing. His work is his own reward. However, his wealthier clients often provide significant payment based upon their appreciation of the value of his services to them. Which keeps Holmes well supported.

Dash it. "Electric light"??? Unwarranted, new-fangled innovations. No more the cozy warmth, the delicate sssh of gas lanps.
