This is yet another of your gifts to us. I still have not come to understand how to respond to the support so generously given to me but I hope you know how much I appreciate these readings as I begin yet another cycle of chemotherapy and perhaps more sleepless nights...kept company by these engrossing tales, marvelously read. Thanks over and over again💌
As I began listening I started to bemoan my lack of rich, titled relatives...but then maybe I’m ok without any! Thanks again Greg, such an atmospheric, emotive reading.
Conan Doyle at his best narrated in a superb manner befitting of this literary gem. Thank you so much Mr. Wagland. You have given me insight into the value and skill of your profession entwined with the greatest pleasure in the listening and evocation of, this especially, but many other tales of which plenty are yet to come. I consider myself blessed in the partaking and extend my heartfelt thanks to you once again !
Do you not know that Doyle was a Satanist ? Look it up. Had i realized this was a Doyle before i started it, i would have never listened. Sufferring from COVID-19, i was bed-ridden & my caregiver had inadvertently put my phone on a table too far out of my reach & strength to silence it & caregiver too busy to hear my hoarse cries for help. Thus with delirious fever, i had to endure this terrifying tale. NEVER Again !
I know it was a common thing back then, and I also know it's a work of fiction, but I was dismayed that the feline was executed. This is why I like animals more than people, animals respect the rules of nature.
Yes. I think they all thought that once a big cat had tasted 'long pig' they'd do anything to get some more and make 'a bit of a nuisance' of themselves. Those private menageries still exist, don't they?
Third time of listening - poor guy, poor cat. Interesting with some of these older stories to hear the different attitude toward animals that we generally have nowadays.
Kinda like a Poe story. He could have tried scratching it under the chin, LOL. Actually, you can stare down an animal...all it takes is a positive, dominant attitude (and some bear spray).
I am very happy I found your channel. I was looking for something a little different to listen to and I finally found it. I can’t wait to listen to the next one. And Greg’s voice talent is awesome. Thank you!😎
Thanks, do you have many people that live in England that subscribe to your channel or just ex-brits and anglophiles lol I love listening to your narrations, Cheers.
First I thought what a crap but then it got to me/ what a overly great story/ I wish tp repeat it. What an awesome gramma and choice of words, truly masterful. Thanks big time/ I hope I can find another one just like this one. Thanks a million. Wish I could express my self like this/ genius.
i’m not sure, but i think you read tthe opening quote and some of the lines in the beginning of the story with a bit of sarcastic irony. :) such masterly work you do. what i want to know though is, what is he living off of to pay for a ‘suite’ to reside in and a valet? and be a ‘man-about-town’? E.B.White went once to live in a ‘small’? house in the country and complained that he had only like 3 servants and how would they ever get along! they have absolutely no idea how the rest of us live, do they? >:/ 🧐
after all he’d been through with that disgusting, horrible person, i was glad for him at the end - as he did seem a good guy, even though spoiled rich. how much one gets into a well written, amazingly narrated story. ✨🌷
Did you narrate 'The Caterpillar' by E.F Benson on Librivox.com? That is one of my favorite stories and narrations. The style seemed similar to yours. I will have to go back and check😊
This story can finally come into more accurate perspective now that we realize a jaguar is kind of like a cross between a leopard and a teddy bear. ru-vid.comkMxqxMxiJdY

The East African slave trade ( Sudan , Kenya , Zanzibar ) was the exclusive monopoly of Arab ( ie. Muslim ) slave traders. Don't you learn anything in school ?
