Playing with Fire by Arthur Conan Doyle 

Greg Wagland, you are a legend! I've listened to all your Sherlock Homes readings countless times. I just wish there were more. Your tone and intonation are calming and enthralling at the same time. Thank you sir, you are a fine fellow!

Speaking of artists, your ability to paint the perfect Victorian/Edwardian portraits and landscapes, is second to none! It is your intonation and your great accents. You rise and fall, as the narrative dictates, and never become dull or boring. Although admittedly, I have fallen off to sleep while listening to one or two of your many great stories. Lol! But I've also spent far too many nights glued to every word But who can sleep with all this nonsense going on in the world? Peace!

I love his voice. I think i have listened to all his Sherlock audiobooks

Thank you, Greg. Splendid as always. Capital. Keep up the good work.

Sir Greg Wagland you are so talented!! I am certain that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle would be proud of your beautiful work. Thank you so very much

never knew of all these short stories of Sir Arthur’s. they’re so much fun and scary, suspenseful. thanks so much for narrating them in your inimitable way. :) 😋🙀🦄

This is one I have never heard of! So excited to listen on this rainy Saturday morning 😊Thank you Mr. Wagland! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend.

How brilliantly read , as allways ! 🙏🏼 Thank you very much Mr.Wagland !

Thank you once again for a beautiful reading! Best of luck and a howdy from up here in Scotland!

Wonderful reader!!

Listening from Montreal, Canada. 🐻 ❄️

Great story! As any one who likes Conan Doyle will know, he was very keen on the Occult. This jars with Sherlock Holmes, who wasn’t. It was Conan Doyles interest, and takes us forward to Dennis Wheatley, who wrote “ The Devil Rides Out”. That story, is probably as close as we might get to an experience which deals with things beyond our world. We don’t know, but it is an example of what may be outside, and very real, if we wish to look for it, at our peril!

What fun! Thank you! 😊

Thank you very much!

Wonderful! Thank you

So interesting a story given Doyle’s fanaticism about using a medium and the supernatural.

Love it!

Have never even heard of thus story let alone read it. Very much looking forward to “seeing” it, along with the others.

I wonder if Conan Doyle had such an experience? Lovely reading, as usual, of an interesting story.

Thanks

Very fine reading

No matter the delusional belief, there are devotees who will support it regardless of fact.

It would be, if looking from the front!

I need to research Doyle's involvement with Spiritualism. It's seems incongruous that the man of science and deduction would be involved in such fantastical stuff.

I never knew that this story existed...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

wow

Yes, Playing With Fire... One must be extremely careful of what "Doors"one opens...I hope that the only Door that I open is the one that JESUS knocks on...

i love the pictures you choose - they are all ‘art’ and fit the story. do you know what print this was part of? i’d really like to see it if you do know. thanks much :) 🌼

😂so glad you’re back in business Ever don P G Wodehouse or Fran’s Kafka?

Many thanks Arch. Where do you find these files?

If that is supposed to be the unicorn, the horn is not in the middle between the ears.

U OK MISTER????

GREAT READING...Was it real or a hoax?...As another listener mentioned a topic that was VERY important to SACD-Can the veil be pierced?...

Came across the collected writings in old Carnage foundation county library here in US years ago. Never saw it anywhere else or since. Terrible thing, digital books. Lost are the pages turned, tactile interaction, and the meandering through libraries seeking the new, the odd, the book that hasn't been opened a decade or more for lack of curiosity or open minds. Found, through memory of hand held tomes, that digital copy is not always as once written. Simple and subtle alteration of word from tome to digital copy; less simple the alteration of intent and communicated sense of purpose, morality, or lessons for life. A heinous act against the writer and cruelty to the unaware reader, unfamiliar with the original source. Today, the question of reading has changed from secondhand experience through texts, to what loss in minor changes of language has been perpetrated on this generation... ✌️& Favour ALL (Pennsylvania USA, teacher takes pride and feels gratification by getting The Illiad and The Odyssey removed from public school libraries.)
