De: Gretchen Altabef

Narrado por: J.T. McDaniel

Remarkable Power of Stimulus is the sequel to These Scattered Houses.

Sherlock Holmes returns to London after three years away. Traveling from New York to Liverpool he faces death-defying challenges. He finds his city in the grip of a mass murderer and No. 221B Baker Street under siege. He reforms his partnership with Dr. John H. Watson in "The Adventure of the Empty House". Miss Rachel Marcello and other characters from These Scattered Houses, a new young Inspector Chandra Das, the Baker Street Irregulars, and the usual London crew, plus a few surprises, have their parts to play.

We discover what Watson did during Holmes time away and how it made him even more the partner of Sherlock Holmes. Their solving of the heinous crimes involves these two gentlemen hurtling through the city, on both sides of the Thames, and to Oxford, in a dangerous chain of events better left unsaid.

Holmes as husband and father

Yes, seriously. I won’t spoil it more than that, but you can see for yourself.

This was a fun story, once you accept the changes the author has made. The author did a fine job of capturing the spirit of the original. I was definitely entranced, and do look forward to more.

However, I have to knock the narrator. All the characters sounded alike, such that it was quite difficult to discern who was speaking. Also, he mispronounced a number of words, that really spoiled what was left of my enjoyment.

So it’s up to you. Is the story worth the narration?

How How did this guy ever get hired too narrate this book?

This has got to be the worst narrator I have ever heard. Or should I say you can’t hear him. he whispers and mutters to the point to where I could only to listen to 10 minutes of this book. It might be a great story if you can understand the Narrator
