It is an interesting and fun read for anyone who enjoys the written stories of Sherlock Holmes and enjoys reflecting upon what makes those stories so interesting and appealing.

I can't say much more without giving away too much, but I would say it is a worthy entrant to the non-ACD titles which are accepted by the community.

It's on my list already.

Sounds great!

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

I just read "The House of Silk" by him and loved it!
It's not the original, but it feels pretty close. He is a good writer,
and he has the right approach.

I often thought it would be fun to share some books here.
Is any of you at bookcrossing, by any chance? It's the place where
I usually swap books, and I wonder if we could do sth similar here...
send a book round to some people, and then discuss it :-)
E.g. the originals, or also other interesting works...

Saw this thread in the listing and realised I hadn't contributed.
I enjoyed the book, but didn't think it was quite as good as The House of Silk, which is just outstanding.
