About the Author
Arthur Conan Doyle was born in Edinburgh in 1859. Sent off to boarding school, he cut his teeth as a story-teller amusing his schoolmates with tales and writing letters home to his mother.He practiced medicine and, in 1900, volunteered as a medic in Africa during the Boer War - he was later knighted for his service. Doyle lost a son, two brothers in law, and two nephews to the Great War. He is remembered for the Sherlock Holmes stories and his novel The Lost World.
From AudioFile
Conan Doyle's diverse interests and areas of expertise (the grotesque, occult, diabolical traps, inexplicable disappearances, murder and madness) are featured in this collection. The narration perfectly recreates the speech of the era; John is at once judgmental and poetic while using a scary voice when appropriate. His American accents are realistic, avoiding the exaggeration sometimes adopted by British readers. Since this is a period piece, the audio format captures the listener's attention better than reading in print. Lovers of good suspense, as well as wordsmiths, will enjoy. S.G.B.
