disappointed by racism and ethnocentrism in storie

That said, it's not a kind of book younger readers (meaning those under 40:)) will probably like. The stories are written in that old-fashioned way in which it's the narration that's most important, not the pace of the tale or the development of characters. Some of the stories feel a bit outdated, some are more like philosophical essays rather than crime fiction, in some the views presented by the characters may offend modern readers (they touch for example on racial matters). But overall it's a set of crime stories that every lover of mysteries should try to read at least once, as they belong to the classics of the genre...
Narration by Mr Cardwell is quite good, though I admit I sped it up a bit - but more because of the length of the book rather than anything else... I generally like the way he voices different characters, though I don't particularly like the voice of Father Brown himself. it sounds a bit too young or too childish... But it may also be the fault of the BBC "Father Brown" series - when I hear "Father Brown" I hear the voice of actor Mark Williams in my head...:)

A good interpretation of classic stories...

Two classic books in one pack. 2 collections of short stories featuring the lovable Father Brown. I read these 40 years ago and am delighted to be able to listen to an excellent audiobook of them.
Yes they are of a simpler style than modern detective stories, But they are an immensely enjoyable experience.
Superbly narrated.

Classic detective from a simpler time.

Those who bemoan the many abridged versions offered on Audible will be pleased to know that this double collection is unabridged. This means that some of the stories (presumably those omitted from abridged versions) contain attitudes toward Indians and blacks that will be jarring to the modern reader. None of these are expressed by Father Brown himself, although in one he does catch himself up on his own prejudices; I found this realistic (and probably quite open-minded) for the time period in which Chesterton lived and wrote.
I found the narrator quite good, though not brilliant; I didn't care for his female voices, but his Father Brown vocalizations were well-suited to a mild-mannered priest who is constantly underestimated by those with whom he comes in contact. All in all, I enjoyed my introduction to the "original" Father Brown, and I'm glad to have been given this audiobook for free in exchange for an honest review.
