Young Sherlock Holmes

review 1: The mystery was a little weak with this one - I think it was because of the need to fill the Brits in on the American War of Independence - which forms the backbone of the plotline. However, the mystery at the heart of it was a little thin - but the explanation was very inventive indeed - and I am once again blown away with the extensive research undertaken for the book. I am in hopes for this to develop into a great series - and it was nice to have some personal touches on Sherlock for the fans - this time we learn from whence comes the love for the violin. - looking forward to the next one!
review 2: Another Fantastic tale of a young Sherlock Holmes and his friends! It was heartwarming to see how much Sherlock admired his brother as a father-like figure. I th... moreought the plot was gripping and well historically researched. Packed full of action and conflict, esp. on the boat trip to America. Sherlock constantly develops his particular set of skills; the violin, cataloging vital information and distinguishing aspects of individuals like tattoos & cuts of suits etc. Can't wait to further my journey in Andrew Lane's series! less
