Did The Sherlockian require a bit of suspension of disbelief for both of the book's ongoing plotlines? Absolutely. Was it also a very fun romp through both Victorian- and modern-era detective stories? Absolutely! As an avid consumer of Sherlock Holmes spinoffs and adaptations, I have to say that this one is much better than some others that I've read. It's not perfect by any means but it has a very engaging plot and is just plain fun to read.
