Mr Finchley Takes the Road

John Higgins delivers a performance that’s as dynamic as Mr Finchley himself—energetic and expressive without ever overdoing it. The pacing is just right; it never feels rushed but also maintains a sense of urgency. Listening to the carriage rattle over cobblestones or the crackle of conversation in an inn provides a rich, textured experience. Yet, there are occasional pauses that might feel like moments of rest, where more action could elevate the tension and keep you on the edge of your seat. Overall, it’s a captivating audiobook that won’t disappoint if you’re drawn to classic literature with a bit of adventure.
