Dramatic

I could only listen to the first two épisodes. There was too much blaring music at every dramatic turn, and there were many. Chandler audio books are far more enjoyable.

Ok in small doses

Due to the editing designed to preserve authentic radio weekly presentation format there is much endless repetition of musical stings, announcer's gush, and intros. The tales are entertaining if not outstanding.

Philip Marlowe

Philip Marlow's full series is an excellent radio show and represented by primary actors. I found this book to be great fun and bring back old memories to the radio shows.

Fantastic for listening while at work!

I love listening to this In it’s Authentic form, with both headphones in you’re immersed in the world of Phillip Marlowe, highly enjoyable if you’re a fan of the dime detective and black mask magazines of the past.
