That Little Square Box by Arthur Conan Doyle. An early curiosity.

[@lorijeangrandi4434]

This story is GREAT....you had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Totally enjoyable....fantastic ending! I tried to guess several endings during the reading....NOT....EVEN....CLOSE!!

[@jaymacchione6558]

Thanks again, when I see a new story in my feed from Magpie, it is like a good friend has come to visit me.

[@drummerboy1390]

Yet another Conan Doyle story I hadn't heard of. Beautifully read, as always. Many thanks.

[@zoobyshoe694]

I am so happy you are recording these unknown Conan Doyle stories. IMO they are just as entertaining as any of the Sherlock Holmes stories. I hope you do more of them!

[@mr.peevyshow1914]

I think Sherlock stories are better.

[@teagunn]

Haha, I diddnt see that coming! Brilliant plot twist and great suspense ! Classic!

[@rab7889]

How did you know I'm sitting here wishing for a new story?? :) Cheers, Mr. Wagland!

[@luvuforeverjames]

I love these short stories...always a little twist in the tale.

[@craftyrouze]

Didn't expect the twist to be so great. Throughout the entire story I kept thinking he should have gone to the captain straight a way. I can sense the foolishness of the main character.

[@auntyJanette]

A new level of excellent accents. Your Irish accent was beautiful. You transitioned so well from English to German to American and to a fine Irish. It’s exciting to hear these relatively unknown stories. Thanks Greg. It’s always a pleasure to hear your voice.

[@michellekosik7233]

I actually only speak English the rest is all them and their tactics I'm from the US never been outside the country

[@colemarie9262]

Even with hundreds of imitations, there's still no substitutions for the good Sir himself. Thank you for these!!

[@nomeansno1107]

Brilliant narration!

[@anthonydemitre9392]

Enjoying this with my morning coffee ☕ Thanks

[@leeknights5540]

Lovely stuff. Thank you Mr Wagland for creating such pictures in the mind, and travels back in time and...wow, so many excellent accents!

[@nofear1237]

Please don’t be offended that I love your voice and I use this channel to fall asleep. Much love❤️

[@samueldavidrucker7514]

Thank you! Very well read. For the astute reader this story contains volumes encapsulated in the fewest words; a parable. I'm becoming convinced Doyle was one of the greatest writers who ever lived.

[@Beau667]

Xmas has come early!!thankyou Greg, Wonderful ! 🥰

[@TexanAmiga]

Loved it! As always with your readings, I get totally immersed. This time so much so that I burst out laughing at the end and felt embarrassed for the main character😍thank you!

[@elena-db6wh]

I must admit Mr Wagland, i love your Sherlock Holmes stories too much than is healthy😂😂your reading is excellent!!

[@studentoflife2484]

finally , a new ONE.. thank you sir

[@Silveralchemy]

Awww yiss! Now I can stop listening to The valley of fear for the 1340th time!

[@lilbits4173]

I'm glad I'm not the only one!!! I listened to A Study in Scarlet every night to fall asleep, for months now. I love the first part only. Hey, cheers from across the Atlantic. 😊😊

[@kaf890890]

Oooo, I love an early curiosity! Thank you, Mr. Wagland!

[@sairabshah]

Excellent work squire

[@patriciaramsey5294]

This one really had me fooled. I thought the timid man would be the hero in the end. Very riveting story. I was completly drawn into it.

[@M3321-t6k]

Excellent narration as always! Thanks for posting

[@20_SinManya]

Truly laudable Mr Greg!!🤩 Can't thank you enough! :D

[@martinafoote6183]

Love... Thank you!

[@anabreppe4475]

Excellent option: an excellent writer and a superb speaker!

[@annskinner8467]

Another bathtime special! Thanks, Greg! 💕🀄️🀄️🀄️🀄️🀄️🀄️🀄️💕

[@anthonysokolsky6210]

Wow what an innocent twist to the story! Brilliant AC Doyle!

[@eugenej1202]

[@sloanfrakes5918]

[@Scotticus71]

Now your just spoiling us Greg, and we love it, thank you! 😉

[@Neel_983]

WoW, I just finished the Sharlok holmes series, feeling sad that it ended, how did you know I was wishing a new story,😆cool, Cheers 👍

[@auntyJanette]

Brilliantly read. Great characters clearly identified. An exciting story. Thanks Greg. 👏🏻👏🏻💐💐🌟🌟aunty

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Glad you enjoyed it, aunty!

[@WadeWeigle]

That was amusing. I had thought the whole time it would have been some extraordinary firework or something of that nature. But the ending was truly a very good twist. Thank you for sharing this.

[@sunflowerz54]

I love the sound of Greg’s voice. !!Well done :)

[@kimberlywhittaker5619]

Thank you

[@bobking4736]

Most excellent! Thank you!

[@SDW90808]

Simply brilliant! Thank you.

[@johnnye87]

I never knew making fun of Americans for saying "Yurrup" was a tradition that dated back to 1890

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

I know. I found that fascinating.

[@judithgockel1001]

It goes back further than that. Making fun of ‘colonials’ has been a British sport for centuries.

[@TicTocRobotSnot]

Haha! Great story with a bang of an ending!

[@KushDaddy333]

Ha ha ha! That was unexpected! I won't give the ending away but I will say: "I really flocking enjoyed it!"

[@heatherRebekah77]

Ohh my goodness so unexpected, what a twist. Seems slightly uncharacteristic of some of his other short stories

[@ginaharrison5560]

Thank you!💖

[@susanrudd9660]

Mr Wagland always a pleasure

[@ROXI-zq4fg]

Love it! Thank you !

[@Crowka274]

Consistently brilliant.

[@hawkiowan]

Bravo!

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

cheers hawkiowan

[@cheriegonzales7632]

What a comic twist! Never knew Sir ACD had that much of a funny bone in him.

[@MacMcCaskill]

An excellent yarn!

[@oakdew]

Thanks Greg!

[@catsareevil101]

Thank you so much for this.

[@kathleenmillington4860]

Great voice actor,

[@lynnsloan3855]

Thank you, Greg Wagland, for another new title (enjoyed the ‘Silver Hatchet’, by the way) and for providing an escape from the rampant “flue” porn- ... best regards!

[@IanP1963]

Great and Bitesize give us some great Sir A-C stories👍

[@IanP1963]

Greg and Bitesize l meant to say

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Ha!

[@thurayya8905]

I could not figure this one out. I kept trying to put the clues together, but never figured it out. What a surprise!

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Ha!

[@Gillian-nz3bf]

Lovely stories and well read ❤

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@hangawara]

Help. LOST STORY TITLE. Not The Lost World I believe. In brief: maybe a Conan Doyle story or parody, man convinced to accompany team up S. American river to a land of dinosaurs, a ravine is traversed by felling a tall tree, tree removed and explorers exposed to monkey men. In the end some explorers return and at a lecture a baby pterodactyl suprises all.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle. Available on Spotify called Classic Breakdown.

[@hangawara]

Thank you. I found what I was looking for. The reason I thought it was a parody must be because it is actually a BBC drama... btw really enjoy your digressions.

[@johnlyon5366]

So we'll read. Cheers

[@Bambisgf77]

Hi Greg! Anything in the works to share with your adoring fans? ☺️Hope all is well with you in 2022.

[@juleswells59]

Cheers Mr w.

[@MultiSirens]

I also listen to any recording it’s my “ sleep” pill! Lol

[@karenbanks5985]

Great reading thank you so much Greg is awesome

[@afeefreyaz3003]

Wow it is Amazing story

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

It a fun tale, Md Afeef Reyez 8a!

[@maryeckel9682]

I was thinking some kind of advanced signaling device...oh well! Great twist

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Coo! Agree!

[@rab7889]

I just finished it. Oh lordy!!! XD

[@crochetedlace2838]

Hahaha! Great one

[@SunnySmile-fr5yg]

Good one! 😁

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Glad you liked it!

[@rivkabornstein]

Hysterical 😂

[@lesterbrandt3203]

Listen to this one, you won't regret it.

[@myheadhurts1927]

Doyle !

[@Shineon83]

“…and I was made of that sensitive, spiritual nature which often is gifted with a second sight” …..Oh, Lordy, so funny 😂

[@peterbamforth6453]

What a cracker Superb narration 10/10

[@krazydi5945]

😆 -LOL!! That was funny!!

[@ringpop6177]

No pictures of rocks?!! What’s goin on around here?! It’s a free for all! Geezz Lauise Calamine Lotion!!!!

[@geoffreypiltz271]

Guessed the ending!

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Yes. I think I did when I first read it.

[@sacredheart9053]

Lmao 😂😂🤣🤣😂

[@geritaeckens5702]

Brilliant story brilliant read and misperception continues into the 21st century 🤯

[@vanessashimoni6548]

It’s a little hard to believe anyone could be as spineless as the main character. 🙄

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

There's a lot of spinelessness about. Then and now!

[@tracymarie4633]

Doyle wrote this? "I tried not to shake it." But they were RUNNING to the ship. Other blaring errors too. Blah. Not narrators' problem. Well done narrator.

[@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio]

Cheers Tracy. It's a bit like running with scissors. Only a question of time...
