![]() I received this copy from the publisher through NetGalley in return for an honest review!Īs a boy I believe I read all of the Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I want Sherlock Holmes to be Sherlock Holmes, not some romanticized version and I want a good story! I'm picky when it comes to Sherlock Holmes stories. Also, jealousy over a woman that's why professor Moriarty set out to destroy Holmes? Come on! ![]() It felt like every time I picked up the book and they mentioned some name I just sat there thinking "who was he again?". I also had some problem with the story, the biggest problem was that the characters weren't that memorable. Giving Sherlock Holmes a past that really goes against the man that Doyle wrote about is something I just can't abide with. Especially when it comes to Sherlock Holmes, or I should say that all that is ridiculous with this book has to do with Sherlock Holmes, because he is nothing like Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and that's the biggest problem with the book. Predictable and sometimes utterly jaw dropping ridiculous. Now I'm glad that I didn't buy it since it was so predictable that it was hard to enjoy reading the book. ![]() ![]() I was quite looking forward to reading this book after seeing it on Amazon and was happy when I saw it on NetGalley.
