More please

I love Rex Stout stories and these three are great. Please record more of them!

Stories were good, but had trouble with some of the narration.

Stories were good. Reader was sometimes difficult to understand with the way he voiced some of the characters.

Great stories as usual but the British narrator was totally not suited for the job.

Three more very entertaining stories by Rex Stout about an American detective and his American right hand man. No place here for a British narrator who I’m sure would be well suited to another genre. I was so excited to find this after all this time but so very disappointed with the presentation. I really do hope this means there’ll be more to come but PLEASE get the narration right.

Love Nero Wolfe

So clever and author and creative with ageless characters as time itself passes by! Rex Stout!!!

Narration is unpleasant

Sounded like the speed of narration was set to 33 1/3. Couldn’t tolerate listening. A two hour reading would take four hours.
