Good, but...

I enjoyed the clever plots and the quality of the writing, however, there were several references which are reflective of the era in which they were written and which may offend in our more enlightened times. The narration was expert but I found his languid pace irritating. I found it more tolerable once I had increased the speed to 1.3.

Chesterton's incredible mind brought to life

The Father Brown stories stand the test of time as classics to be enjoyed for generations. Nigel Prefer narrates the stories excellently, his British accent is clear and rich, perfect for this era.
