Description

Boasting some of Sherlock Holmes's finest adventures, this classic 1894 collection was originally written in serial form. Eleven of the most popular tales of the immortal sleuth include "Silver Blaze," concerning the "curious incident of the dog in the night-time"; "The Greek Interpreter," starring Holmes's even more formidable brother, Mycroft; and "The Final Problem," the detective's notorious confrontation with arch-criminal Moriarty at the Reichenbach Falls. Holmes and Dr. Watson remain history's greatest detective team, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's portrayals of male comradeship, the thrills of the chase, and the misty precincts of Victorian London remains unmatched in detective literature.

    What can I say that hasn’t already been said throughout the years since publication of this masterpiece? Noteworthy in that one of the stories contains the only incident (as far as I’m aware) of Holmes actually being wrong! Enjoyable from start to finish.

    Get continuation from the first Holmes series (Scarlett,Sign, Baskerville and the short stories from around the same time). Best if you already have read previous Holmes series.

    I find the writings of Sir Arthur Canon Doyle to be very skillful and fascinating. His ability, through the English language to keep one mesmerized and ever waiting for the next word is simply marvelous. Highly recommend any of his writings to any avid reader.
