Product Description

From AudioFile

Nero Wolfe fans may be surprised when the detective who never leaves home embarks on an international adventure. He sneaks into Yugoslavia, manipulates communist officials and anti-communist guerillas, climbs craggy hills, and hunts down his adopted daughter's killer. His sidekick, Archie Goodwin, is right beside him, pulling knives and guns on cue and narrating the adventure with his trademark dry wit. Michael Prichard's narration is strong and fluid, his voice resonant. His pacing is as perfect as his portrayal of Wolfe. Readers accustomed to Timothy Hutton's Archie Goodwin on A&E might be jarred initially but are likely to be drawn in by Pritchard's powerful performance. The peek inside Tito's Yugoslavia in the mid-twentieth century is a fascinating plus.

5.0étoiles sur 5 They're actually UNabridged, if they're the ones I recorded., Mai 3 1999

This review is from: The Black Mountain (Audio Cassette)
I'm the narrator of all the Nero Wolfe books from Audio Partners which you're listing on your website. I've just noticed that you list my recordings of THE BLACK MOUNTAIN, FER-DE-LANCE, THE GOLDEN SPIDERS, and WHERE THERE'S A WILL as abridged. Please note that these recordings are all actually UNabridged. It may make a difference with potential purchasers. Thanks.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Nero Wolfe walks through the mountains of his homeland., Aoû 6 1998
This review is from: The Black Mountain (Audio Cassette)
Someone has murdered Nero Wolfe's best friend Marko, owner of Rusterman's, the only restaurant Wolfe will frequent. More than food is at stake -- Marko and Wolfe share a mysterious history in their birthplace, the mountains outside Sarajevo. Marko is one of the very few who Archie has heard call Wolfe by his first name. Wolfe sets out to find the murderer and the adventure leads back to the Black Mountain, the place of his origin. Wolfe puts out more physical exertion in this one book than in all the others put together, which is one of its charms. But what really works for me is that he casts Archie in the role of his son for the sake of their cover story -- bringing to the front some of the subtle aspects of their "normal" relationship in the old brownstone. It's a stretch for everyone -- readers included -- but the emotional borders are widened as in no other Nero Wolfe novel, and the result is extremely satisfying. Stout's brilliance has, in my opinion, al! ways resided in great measure in his ability to suggest the emotions of his characters through a small action or phrase that lets the reader in without spelling it all out. In "The Black Mountain" Stout has brought to the surface the truth of the Archie/Wolfe relationship in full color with absolutely no pandering, and no cheapness.
