The 12 Best Sherlock Holmes Adventures - chosen by Arthur Conan Doyle himself in 1927.

[@beckerabstracts]

It's like Mr. Doyle reading a bedtime story. I think your tone is exactly what the author intended.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Ha! Excellent. Thank you.

[@ThePaladinHV]

Absolutely right. You were meant to read these stories, Mr. Wagland, and these stories were meant to be read by you.

[@sebastianvakarian9773]

That's some first-rate voice acting! Really adds to the experience.

[@Someone_01s]

10 hours of Sherlock Holmes, thank You so much ❤ And also, the way you read the stories is just perfect!

[@lilbits4173]

Thank you for the list. And if Sir Arthur was still with us, he would have chosen you as the official reader/narrator/performer of his magnificent stories.😊

[@pipster1891]

If he were still with us, he would indeed be Sir Arthur but since he isn't he is now just Arthur.

[@JulieLevinge]

Without doubt👍❤️

[@Godisknockingx]

Only proper gents here. No gangster talk. A breath of fresh air.

[@FormerMPSGT]

THEY CANNOT FATHOM A PLOT MUCH LESS ONE WORTHY OF SHERLOCK HOLMES!

[@SDW90808]

I remember the first time I read the opening story as an adolescent. I was fascinated by the ending. Even better now listening to Mr. Wagland.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Yes. It's a good 'un. Cheers Steven.

[@bassistwithadeathwish7277]

Curious to hear what your favourite out of these are

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Well, I'm very fond of the Red Headed League, mainly because of its humorous side. I agree with a comment hereabouts about the Speckled Band, and of course he didn't really get into his favourites among the Case-book stories as these were about to be published in 1927.

[@wordjunkys]

Nice compilation, excellently performed by Mr Wagland!

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Cheers Ginger.

Thank you Greg. My comfort listening! All is good in my world when I can close my eyes and relive these exceptional stories again. And again! I do hope you know how much your work is appreciated. X

[@thomasdevlin8836]

This is impressive 10 hours of bliss thank you sir much appreciated 👍🥰

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

You are very welcome, Thomas. Enjoy!

[@YvonneWilson312]

Wonderful! Thanks so much for this, Greg. Interesting choices by ACD (and who are we to disagree?!).

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Glad you enjoyed it, Yvonne!

[@Rose-jz6ix]

Yvonne I don't like the first case. Once it's over I can happily listen to the rest. Didn't like it on television either. Funny how some tales grind rather than flow.🎉 Have a wonderful week enjoying these stories.🇦🇺😊♥️

[@danielwegrzynek494]

REALLY enjoy these stories. Listen at night, while retiring for the night. THANKS TO ALL WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE TREASURES

[@nicolawallace7255]

Just want to say a big thank you for all the Sherlock Holmes stories, I have absolutely loved them and I'm now on to the Father Brown ones, I hope one day you will do Agatha Christie 🙏🏼

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Thank you Nicola. Appreciated.

[@rtt1961]

10 hours of Holmes: excellent. The reader, BTW, is outstanding. Thanks.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Thank you rtt1961. Yes some folk like to just hit play and let it run for 10 hours.

[@stewartlancaster6155]

BTW ? Greg Wagland is the narrator surely

[@TheNeilo-Audiosound]

Greg Sir it just does not get any better than this especially as I’m sure many of us were wondering how long it would be until we revelled in the Company of your Dulcet tones again🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Thank you Sir as always👍

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Hope you enjoy this compilation from the horse’s mouth as it were! (Not sure that makes sense!). Cheers!

[@catherine4092]

Thank you super much/TYSM, Greg. I listen in sequence until I get to sleep and then start where i believe I drifted to sleep. As I've said before your voice is soothing. ❤️ Catherine from AZ

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Cheers AZzzzzzzz Catherine!

[@ArizonaJoeHines]

Silver Blaze didn't make the list? The curious incident of the dog in the night? Holy cow, The Six Napoleons didn't make it either. I would drop The Reigate Squires and The Second Stain.

[@davidw6936]

Totally agree about Silver Blaze. How could that not be top ten? And certainly The Hound of the Baskervilles is the best of all!

[@ArizonaJoeHines]

@@davidw6936 I think this is just the short stories. The Sign of Four is also a great novel length story.

[@Socratez7]

I would include silver blaze and the naval treaty ahead of the devils foot and the priory school

[@MrRobertJW]

I cannot quantify why, but I have to confess you are my favorite of Sherlock narrators . There's a spirit of the work you seem born to

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Thank you Robert. I think I just enjoy them? Is that it? Or maybe I'm a reincarnated ? Victorian or Edwardian?

[@chartrooseforee6904]

Me too

[@FormerMPSGT]

The 19th Century is truly Drawing to the mind BUT in reality it was a hard time few now a days would not be able to fathom much less deal with in Daily Living!

[@saure22]

Just what we all needed! Thanks Greg!

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Hope you enjoy them! Cheers.

[@judikingsman6132]

I just love Greg Wagland ❤

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

HA! Thanks Judi!

[@cha5]

I’m guessing that ACD wouldn’t have included any ofhis full length novel tales such as The Hound of the Baskervilles among others?

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Seemingly not. There's another list that I must do which is those that a poll of listeners thought had been wrongly left off.

[@00WatName00]

You make me cry. Thank you Greg and Magpie Audio for your continued dedication. I really really do appreciate your works, God Bless you all ❤

[@jamesengland1101]

Why is the bird in your logo not a magpie? A mystery to be solved perhaps? Thanks as always, James

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

It is perhaps merely suggestive of a Magpie, perhaps it's just a 'mind Magpie'. It does lack ornithological precision and may in fact be a sparrow. Mea culpa. Cheers James.

[@davidcox8945]

It is an oriental magpie, Pica serica

[@liamoconnor9487]

The tricky old cocaine connoisseur didn't include The Casebook or His Last Bow stories because he needed them all for his "12 Worst Adventures"...

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Ha! But… but… isn’t The Adventure of the Devil’s Foot from His Last Bow? I think it is.

[@hayleysmith3092]

I simply cannot listen to any one else. Your skills are exceptional I have listened to you over and over and over again. No one can perform the voices like you. And your narrative is also at exactly the correct listening speed. I think I am in love xxxx❤

Thank you!

[@kaf890890]

Thank you, Mr. Wagland! Saves me the trouble of organizing Conan Doyle’s favorites by myself. I hope all is well with you and yours. PS- “power through the best ones”! Never! I need to read them all, multiple times. But having you read them to me is really the best.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

All good KF. Hope you are too? You know what we're like these days: power through, attention span of a gnat, but there's still a few slow lorises (?) like me.

Maybe (I like The Blue Carbuncle especially) but it wouldn’t be Conan Doyle’s list then, would it? Cheers!

[@stampdealer]

Greg, this is a fabulous compilation, thank you. Also, Dr. Watson's preliminary remarks in 'The Musgrave Ritual' has me wondering if a work has been published that examines the interpersonal relationship of Holmes and Watson qua fellow lodgers, friends, etc., as well as character studies of themselves individually. If so, that would be something I'd love to read.

[@margaretgoodheart4167]

Just discovered you channel: how clever and brave for a lover of reading to create his own venue to do so. And such a pleasing voice and collection. Surprise with the following: would wish you had been the reader of Pride and Prejudice. Most women's voices don't ring true to the era or have the gravitas Austin's insight deserves.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Not sure I agree with you, Margaret. I think Austen can be read well by m or f. This is a great version.

[@nathanharper5670]

Interesting that these are his favorites, as many of the plots are similar to other stories, e.g. the Red Headed League is quite similar to The Three Garridebs, and "antagonist afraid of losing their inheritance" comes up in other stories, too. That he thought these were the best of his work offers a unique insight into how he thought he best executed these ideas.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Interesting! ACD does provide a comprehensive description of his thought processes in making the list.
