About this listen

February 1355: Oxford explodes in one of the most serious riots of its turbulent history. Fearing for their lives, the scholars flee the city, and some choose the University at Cambridge as their temporary refuge. But they don't remain safe for long. Within hours of their arrival, the first of their number dies, followed quickly by a second. When Matthew Bartholomew begins to investigate the deaths, he uncovers evidence that the Oxford riot was not a case of random violence, but part of a carefully orchestrated plot.© Susanna Gregory; (P) Clipper Audio Crime Fiction Fiction Historical Mystery Traditional Detectives Detective

Different narrator

Story is great as always, but having a different narrator to most of the others is distracting. It would have been better to use the same narrator for the entire series, or if not then at least try to keep the voices similar sounding.

New narrator

Good intriguing story as always but the new narrator was so different he had the character Michael sounding like a poor imitation of Winston Churchill. Eek

Spoiled my Enjoyment

I have listened to the first 10 books in the Matthew Bartholomew series, one after the other, and thoroughly enjoyed them. David Thorpe has the most wonderful ability to give a different voice to each character and recall them from book to book. I was determined to read the entire series. However, despite a very good voice (and no disrespect intended, Andrew Wincott reading books 11 and 12 was a great disappointment and I could not listen to them, jumping to book 13 and no doubt missing vital info in the Matthew Bartholomew saga. It is like missing an old friend! Any chance of getting Mr Thorpe to read these books?
