A good listen

At the outset, I also thought that I would not like this book due to the narrator. But I was surprised (pleasantly) and really enjoyed listening to the book. You can get past the narrator after a while, and the book is almost up to Cornwall's standards of historical detail.
Stick with it, and I think you will also enjoy the book. A bit predictable at times, but still listenable.

Not just for kids

I found this adventure to be very entertaining. The sound effects are great, and the actors do a very good job overall of maintaining the mystery.
It isn't rocket science, and you will have a good idea of what is happening most of the time, but entertaining none the less.
The only drawback I could see is that some of the supporting actors sounded as though they were reading their lines, rather than acting.
That didn't happen with the main actors, however.

In The Tangled Skein, author David Stuart Davies accomplishes a creative coup by arranging the fateful meeting of two of literature's most resilient characters: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and Bram Stoker's Count Dracula.

I found this book to be very entertaining, as I listen going to and from work. The reader has a wide variety of different voices, making it sound like a full cast of characters. Enjoyed the book very much; I highly recomment it ..
