Reactions:
“Stephen Fry’s narration is excellent. I was not aware of the series until I read a rave review by Michael Dirda in the Washington Post, March 2, 2016. Dirda says, and I agree, that the stories are charming and humorous, and that Carrados is a rival of Sherlock Holmes in the detective world.”– T. Fisher
