Description:

Sherlock Holmes is back, in this collection of short stories written in the original style of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Narrated by the inimitable Doctor Watson, the tales are those briefly mentioned in passing but never expounded upon. There is the case of the Remarkable Worm, which concerns a journalist apparently driven insane by a mysterious package, and the case of the Hidden Blackmailer, in which a highborn lady falls prey to a villainous plot. And why is Colonel Warburton afraid of the pennies on his doorstep? All this, and more, you will learn in the Continued Casebook of Sherlock Holmes.

One word: Brilliant! [ No Rating ] 15 Apr 2008
The author does a wonderful job fleshing out adventures only mentioned in passing in the original Doyle stories.

J.A Roberts writing style is not dry or long winded, but descriptive and poetic, yet still manages a "stick-to-the-facts" style when called for.

The relationship between Holmes and Watson is given a homely, intimate touch without becoming exaggerated.

In short, ladies and gentlemen, a very fun read!
Great!

You can't really tell that these cases weren't concocted by the original author. I wasn't really a fan of sherlock holmes until I started reading this book and I can't wait to get started on the torment of the mind.
