The Mystery of the Iron Box

(5 Sterne)

A great adventure story, a little corny but enjoyable non the less.

good yarn

(4,5 Sterne)

I must be a kid at heart. I enjoy adolescent detective stories. I hope there are more Ken Holt stories in the works. The only disappointing part was the quality of the second and I think sixth chapters. Read by the same reader and very difficult to listen to.

Good Mystery

(4 Sterne)

I thought this was some really good writing It was a "cliff hanger" and always kept me listening longer than I intended. In a couple of the chapters the sound was poor, fading in and out, otherwise it was well done.

Great adventure but many bad recordings.

Great adventure but many bad recordings. this is one of the best books I have heard so far but I hated that many chapters were read badly by volunteers n even recording quality was bad for some.

Pretty good! Kept me wondering, what's next?

very good book. some of the readers were excellent some not so much although the ones that weren't good, seemed to be lacking good equipment more then skill.

Very good enough helps with back grounding sounds, and would rather listen to book then hear more lie's from a teleprompter. 🤑🤫
