review 1: Another intersting adventure featuring Xena and Xander Holmes. It is true that these stories lack a certain element of danger but it is a kids series so I guess I can't really complain. What I reall love about these books though is the author's ability to begin a case in the Ninteenth century and actually devolop a mystery in which the solution is not reavealed until a hundred years in the future. It's simply amazing.The only trouble from a Sherlock Holmes stand point is that Conan Doyle never allowed for Holmes to have children. But William Gilette did. So if we extrapolate forward not from the Doyle canon but rather from Gillette's Play script in which Moriarty is arrested Holmes falls in love Richenbach is adverted and Mary Watson does not die, then this gem of a childr... moreens series can gain some credability.
review 2: Brother and sister, who are descendents of the famous Sherlock Holmes, are currently in London and determined to use their ancestor’s notebook to help a friend solve a mystery. Because the case revolves around an Egyptian amulet the investigators find themselves in and out of museums and famous landmarks in their attempt to solve the mystery. The story could be paired with studies dealing with Egypt and their antiquities. less
