Ok, but not great

The reader does have a nice reading voice and reads with a good tempo and with excellent expression. However, the pronunciation errors and the corny, inaccurate French (quasi German) accents were distracting to the point of pulling me out of the story.
Wonderful reading!

The narrator is excellent. Great characterizations and expressions of the characters. I felt like the characters were doing the speaking. Bravo! The story is fun, although the author pokes fun at Sherlo... er, I mean, Herlock Sholmes. It's a good caricature of Conan Doyle's character, with some pointed differences (not caring a whit about his sidekick when he's injured, etc.) Lupin appears the smarter of the two, which should be natural since we're on Lupin's home turf rather than in London, and the story is coming from a French writer over an English one. This one is worth a listen if you would like a parody on Sherlock Holmes. :)
Wonderful!

That was an excellent reading, with all the required vocalizations of the various characters in the story. Good job, well done. It treats Holmes with respect, but as expected, it's a satire and a funny take on the detective story of its time.
Simple and entertaining

All on all an entertaining story, though a little simple in some spots. The reader does an excellent job, one of the best I've heard at LibriVox to date.
Charming Story
