The Seven-Per-Cent Solution: Being a Reprint from the Reminiscences of John H. Watson, M.D. Audiobook

" Read it when it first came out, thought it inventive and entertaining - one of the better re-imaginings of the Doyle characters. "

" A wonderful addition to the Sherlock Holmes mysteries. It's a bit slow to start, but the last fifty pages are fantastic! "

" Outstanding Holmesian action-adventure that rivals(surpasses?) the best of Arthur Conan Doyle. This combines all of the Sherlock Holmes characters that we have come to love and introduces Sigmund Freud into this mix. The fate of the world literally hangs in the balance! "

" I rarely stray from Sherlock Holmes canon, but I saw the movie version of this a few years ago, and when I found the book, I wanted to read it. Good read, but I think I liked the movie more. "

" First book read after graduating from OSU "

" What fun! This is a very 1970s Sherlock Holmes, with psychoanalysis and drugs. Also, the A+, #1 best train chase scene I've ever read. "

" Awesome! One of the best pastiches I've ever read! "

" Diverting reading. Enjoyable page turner, with clean writing. "

" The Best Non doyle book you have ever read! "

" This is an outstanding book for anyone who is a Sherlock fan. They way the 'seven percent' is intermingled with Freud and Moriarty is a delight. "

" I greatly enjoyed this alternative take on Sherlock Holmes' "death" at Reichenbach Falls, in which Sigmund Freud tackles the problem of Holmes' cocaine addiction. One of the better Holmes pastiches I've read. "

" This was quite enjoyable... I guess I was expecting something a bit more literary, but instead it was a fun "adventure". This was, I think, #8 on Summer Reading list 2011. "

" One of the best Holmes pastiches available. Meyer's love of the canon shines through this document, from the dead-on Doyle voice to the footnotes pointing out some connections to the main canon. And it's just a great read. "

" Loved the book, had a diffrent opion of Sherlock "

" Sherlock is a great character to a have adventures with. "

" This one and the 2nd one, The West End Horror, are great fun to read. Dr. Watson "writes" with humor and gives a glimpse of what Sherlock Holmes was really like and new information on other legendary characters. I learned many secrets that make the Sherlock Holmes stories even more enjoyable. "

" The book that started the modern vogue for writing novel-length Sherlock Holmes pastiches, also for packaging them as "rediscovered" Watson manuscripts. Generally still holds up well, though with a few glitches. "

" The writing style was wonderful, and pays good homage to Sir ACD. Though I expected more interaction between Holmes and Freud, it was nevertheless a good read. "

" This is a real kick! Meyers knows his Sherlock Holmes canon, and the way he writes Watson and Holmes is utterly believable. It's funny and peppered with in-jokes for Sherlockians, but it never turns into a parody. "

" I won't go so far as to say that I wanted to dislike this book, but I at least didn't expect to like it. Turns out it's such a skillful and loving pastiche that it was impossible for me not to like it. A delight. "

" This was enjoyable. It gives a new background to Moriarty and parallels Holmes and Watson trying to prevent WWI while Holmes in under the care of Sigmund Freud for cocaine addiction "

" This was recommended to me as a well done Sherlock Holmes book even though the premis seems WAY too cheesey to be good. After 5 years between having bought the book and finally opening it, I can finally report that the advice was good. This was a great Holmes tale and a fun read. "

" First book read after graduating from OSU "

" Fun addition to the Sherlock stories, though the ending with its high-speed train chase is made for Hollywood. "

" Although it is only the beginning of March, this book is already the front-runner for "best book I've read this year." "

" A brilliant pastiche, it can be added to my favorite of the non-canonical works. "

" Loved the book, had a diffrent opion of Sherlock "

" Excellent Sherlock Holmes pastiche. Imaginative, highly enjoyable. "

" A few parts weren't quite right, but overall, it was amazing. It's been a long time since I've been able to enjoy a new Holmes story. Glad I picked it up! He kept giving explanations why the writing style wasn't exactly the same as in the real Holmes, and it kind of got irritating. "

" One of my favorite books. Read this when it first came out in paperback. Blew me away! Just could not put it down. The author wrote a few sequels. I really wish he would do another one. He does clever things with the storylines to introduce you to famous people of that time. "

" Outstanding Holmesian action-adventure that rivals(surpasses?) the best of Arthur Conan Doyle. This combines all of the Sherlock Holmes characters that we have come to love and introduces Sigmund Freud into this mix. The fate of the world literally hangs in the balance! "

" The Best Non doyle book you have ever read! "

" A very fun read! I have not read many of the Conan Doyle stories, so did not have that frame of reference to adhere to in reading this. Thoughtful characterization of Freud and fun tie-ins to historical setting. Plus an interesting expansion of the Holmes back-story. "
