    If Sherlock Holmes is a favorite this collection may hit the spot. It is not the best of Holmes since most cases are easily determined by guessing.

    Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2011

    I always enjoyed reading Sherlock Holmes when I was in jr. high and high school. So when I was searching for a few free books (I'm a little cheap went it comes to Kindle books) I was happy to see pretty much all of Doyle's Sherlock collections. I've read pretty much all of them and am reminded why I loved them so much in my youth. The great thing is that this second time around reading as an adult I get a whole new outlook on the stories. The plain fact is that there will NEVER be a greater mystery/detective story than Sherlock Holmes. Doyle was so creative in his stories/cases that it is no wonder why they have stood the test of time. I HIGHLY suggest that you read these collections. If you've read them before, do so again...you'll be surprised. If you have never read them before, jump in and get started. What can you lose? Its free!

    It is still Sherlock Holmes and still Conan Doyle. However, you tell he is tired in his writing. From the preface you tell he is ready to be done. Still a great read.

    Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2013

    As my previous reviews of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's books on Sherlock Holmes, this too was an excellent read. Just when I thought that I had read all of Doyle's writings on him, I happily discovered more. Again, if you are a fan, one never tires of reading about Sherlock Holmes' keen skill at attention to details in solving crimes. This book was no exception! Each story was well developed. I enjoy the fact that I can read one of his stories in one or two sittings. I hope I find more stories. Well done, Doyle!

    As a fan of Sir ACD, I enjoy reading all of his works and his short stories are best. Sherlock and Watson ensure a good read before bedtime and any time I need a puzzle to figure out. They win every time of course but I am with them every step of the way. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes this crime solving time period, before DNA and fingerprinting, just good observation, (un)common sense and their wits. Too bad it is one of the last of Sherlock and Watson.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Sherlock is out of the Gaslight era and in the Jazz age.
    Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2013

    A huge deviation from the Victorian/Edwardian era Holmes story's. Doyle is able to keep up with the times here. S.H. is sarcastic, witty, and a PI of the 20th Century. These were written in the era of Black Mask Mystery Magazine, Dashiell Hammett and the new Hardboiled Private Eye of fiction. This is more like the Holmes of the popular BBC series running now. The purist here seem to like the old style Holmes much more (judging by the reviews). I think this collection to be a refreshing break, and a more multi-dimensional Detective.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Later, Possibly Weaker, but Still Holmes!
    Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    Very late period Holmes stories. Like many readers, I feel there is a steep decline in quality and originality in the later Conan Doyle stories. But even with clunkers like "The Three Garridebs," "The Mazarin Stone," and "The Veiled Lodger," you have the two undeniable classics of "The Illustrious Client" and "The Problem of Thor Bridge". You also have the stylistic departure of "The Lion's Mane," one of only three stories in the canon not narrated by Watson. So while I would urge anyone new to the original stories always to begin with "The Adventures," "The Memoirs," and "The Return," both "The Casebook" and "His Last Bow" have much to recommend them.

    The cover shows a silhouetted figure with a deerstalker and a curved pipe, neither of which feature in any of the stories. That aside, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson are two great, well-written, characters, far more nuanced than they are in so many of the films and TV adaptations. These original stories are entertaining and full of atmosphere, character, and occasional humour. I've read them all many times because they are worth revisiting. Highly recommended.
