Me gustó, pero menos que el primero. Asumo que se debe a que la historia en sí me resultó tediosa en algunos momentos, especialmente cuando se estancan en resolver el crimen (lo cual es realista, pero en el caso de Sherlock son páginas de leerlo dar vueltas de un lado a otro en su habitación, lo cual no lo hace muy dinámico). Pero en general, lo disfruté mucho y nuevamente lo leí en un día.

It's a fine story, but I'm looking for more. It really is just the unraveling of a crime. The crime itself is on a grand scale and includes plenty of adventure, which is the main draw, I think. I think more character development would help. Watson has a good bit of development, but Holmes is just Holmes.

I preferred this to A Study in Scarlet, although it followed a similar structure. Loved this and the appearance of the Mary Morstan plotline!
