Reviews

Classic Detective Noir !


(5 stars)

Doesn’t get any better than Dashiell Hammett’s detective noir, read by one of the best Narrators around; Mark Nelson! Simply Great, thanks you LibriVox and Mark Nelson.

Wonderful


(5 stars)

Mark Nelson is a man on a mission, to bring the great Hammett to life for us. The fourth story, 'It,' is a personal favourite.

Short and sweet


(3 stars)

It was ok. His style of writing is great in short or long doses.
