These new audiobooks, read by Stephen Fry, are so enjoyable. Each story comes with a short introduction about its place in the overall Holmes chronology. The stories are solid (obviously) and Fry is a great narrator.

Not as good as the first, slower going and the characters weren't as interesting. Also the colonialism is heavier handed this time, less enjoyable because of that too.
