5 Stars Just plain fun to read
Sherlock Holmes books are straight up, pure fun to read. They are never vague or hard to follow (except, maybe, for the case itself), and they are good at staying away from some of the more preposterous explanations that mystery novels often resort to. I love how Holmes often knows what’s going on the entire time, but will not reveal it to either the reader OR other characters in the book–if you figure out what’s going on before he reveals the plot, you feel like you are in on the secret with the great detective, and the author never has to make him clueless to preserve the mystery.
All in all a great read, won’t leave you enlightened or thinking about the world differently, just good fun.
5 Stars Sherlock Holmes – Perfect Kindle tales at the perfect price!
This free Kindle download is the second half of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Arthur Conan Doyle’s timeless tales are perfect for Kindle and, actually, the Kindle’s electronic voice does an admirable job of reading them to you!
The only downside is that the free Kindle downloads don’t have linked Table of Contents. So how do you quickly skip to a chapter later in the book?
Elementary my dear Watson! (-:
Pick a unique word from the story title. Click MENU > “Search this book”
Then type the most unique words from the title. Alas, this doesn’t always work, and I can’t figure out why. A new mystery! In the meantime, enjoy the classics….
