"Throwing a voice, disembodying, and finally re-embodying it, is ancient-time radio drama, and Cockton's eponymous hero is an expert at amusing himself casting his voice broadly and confounding his listeners. He is both Edgar Bergen and Lamont Cranston - irreverent, mischievous, and eager to expose the follies and evils of the world he inhabits" - Broadcastellan "There is nothing in nature which startles men more than a noise for which they cannot account. However strongly strung may be their nerves: however slight may be the sound which they hear, if they cannot account for that sound, it at once chills their blood, and in spite of them, sets their imagination on the rack." - Cockton
