5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully written and intriging., 9 Sep 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Nine Tailors (Lord Peter Wimsey Mysteries) (Paperback)
The best of the Lord Peter Wimsy Novels, the description of the bells caroling out over the countryside is beautifull it has the impact of a fine old hynm. The corpse is wrapped up in a mystery that results in a tragic and moving ending. I have read and re-read this in one sitting and would highly reccomend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Cracking Tale, 28 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Nine Tailors: A BBC Radio 4 Full-cast Dramatisation. Starring Ian Carmichael (BBC Radio Collection) (Audio Cassette)
This is my first taste of Lord Peter on audio and I'm not dissapointed. Ian Carmichael simply shines as Wimsey. The BBC are past masters at audio dramas and this is no exception, the atmosphere's superb! If you're a fan of Conan Doyle or Christie via the BBC then you won't be disspointed with this effort. Turn the lights down low sit back and enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Book! Supurb Reading!, 21 Dec 2001
By Cynthia Grissinger "MysteryLover" (Lancaster, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Nine Tailors: BBC Radio 4 Full-cast Dramatisation (BBC Radio Collection) (Audio CD)
The Nine Tailors is one of the greatest mysteries of all time. It is full of twists and turns with many surprises to trap the reader. The audio captures the full flavor of the book. For those of us not familar with English change ringing, it's a bit difficult to imagine when reading the book, but Ian Carmichael's great rendition helps out a lot in the audio version. This book should be a must read for everyone -- and a must have to any mystery collection!
