    " This collection was okay overall, but it wasn't anything that knocked my socks off; in fact, I gave the book away when I got finished because I don't think I'll want to re-read it. I didn't hate it by any means, but once was enough. Ultimately, any Holmes is better than no Holmes at all, but I've read better anthologies. "

    " Beware! This is a phony Sherlock Holmes book, written by different authors! the stories aren't great and the writing shoddy. No one can replace Arthur Conan Doyle when it comes to spinning stories about Holmes. "

    " Zeke and I just finished listening to these. I didn't focus as well as he did but he enjoyed them a lot and I would definitely recommend them to mystery fans. I may even enjoy reading them at a later date. "

  • Overall Performance: 2 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 5

    " Very few of the stories included were particularly SF or Fan. Most were published in other collections. I would say that this book is only of interest to diehard fans of Sherlock Holmes. "
