A superb storyteller, such a shame he lost his mind to the psychic charlatans...his last Holmes story is so bad it's quite sad!

My first time reading Scandal in Bohemia and the difference between the way Irene is portrayed in the book and in TV and Film is quite surprising. She's a lot more subtle and refined on the story, not as much of a female fatale. She lacks the sexuality and outward confidence. It is implied in that she had this thing with the king and a regular male visitor. But these relationships are spurred by love rather than sex and power, it felt to me. I kind of preferred the subtle version. It showed a more delicate power and humble wit.

Absolutely hysterical. Easy to forget how long ago it was written, as the style and humor, if not the slang, are perfectly fitting for today. I have no idea, reason, or excuse for why I hadn't read any Wodehouse until now, but he has newly occupied the short list of my absolute favorites. Right ho, what?

Arthur Conan Doyle is campy but fun. I particularly enjoy reading the historical footnotes to get a glimpse into not only 19th century London, but into both Doyle and his fantastical Sherlock's minds.

The stories by Arthur Conan Doyle are well written. They help to develop the logical reasoning skills among the readers!!! Why don't readers try to read some other books to learn more about the logical reasoning? I think that the Wealth Management Time book by Viktor O. Ledenyov and Dimitri O. Ledenyov can be a good starting point!!!

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle has long been one of my most favorite authors since childhood for I bore & still carry great affinity for his wonderful fictitious creation Sherlock Holmes. I do deep in these ever enchanting stories even now. I pay my homage to the Great Sherlock Holmes & its Creator Sir Doyle.

Great Stuff.

Amazing writing and brilliant deductions.

Absolutely amazing.

I've been a big fan of Sherlock Holmes for quite some time. I think I've read every book at least twice, but love reading them again even though I sometimes remember the outcome. This includes other works by Conan Doyle and I haven't read yet, but am looking forward to reading. This is a BIG book.

If you love a good mystery, you might like this book. Sherlock Holmes has very unique methods of solving crimes.
