I am an absolute Holmes addict and know the stories well but I have never heard them read so perfectly. Greg your wonderfully emotive readings are not like listening to a story but instead like being in the room with literatures finest ever creations. The last couple of years have been an awful time for me and you have been key in helping me through the dark times thank you so so much with all my heart

It is now impossible to listen to anyone else narrating Sherlock Holmes stories. It just does not compare to any you have done. Simply brilliant. I am sad that I have nearly finished listening to them all. :(

Holmes speaks of thinking about getting into a box in order to concentrate his thoughts. Sounds like sensory deprivation to me. It might be a good way to reduce distractions, but I'd be worried about Moriarty mailing the box to Timbuktu, or throwing it off Reichenbach falls or something.

For variety I do listen to other stories with different readers, but none measure up to you, Mr Wagland. Christopher Lee is good and of course Vincent Price, but you get the Oscar if they would give them for narration. This Holmes story based itself in a curious little scam. Doyle was genius I. His writing.

Love all the readings on Mr Wagland’s channel. But as a side note I always find it counterintuitive when I hear the British pronunciation of “clerk” as “Clark” lol. To me it doesn’t even seem like the way the word should be pronounced when accounting for the accent differences.

It must be because it came from the French word "clerc". The British are accustomed to words not sounding the way they are written. :)

Normally, the Sherlock Holmes stories by A.C.D. do make some sense, usually after the "plot" is revealed by Holmes at the end of the story {Such as: "The Red-Headed League" and "Silver Blaze"}, but not this one. What a mumbled/tumbled mass of confusion. I have never read nor heard of this one {"The Stockbroker's Clerk"} before today. A.C. Doyle must have needed some quick rent money. {[ The reading was not the problem; it was the twisted story. ]}
