paulemisha's review against another edition
5.0
If you want to laugh at my silliness read on :)
The Giant Rat of Sumatra has been recommended to me as another great adventure of Sherlock Holmes. I loved The Hound of the Baskervilles and wanted to read something similar.
What a silly name of a book I thought to myself, but went for it. It's about pirates...ok.... well last book had a giant evil dog with a fluorescent face, so pirates? Why not.....
About halfway through with no sign of Sherlock I started questioning myself. (Yes halfway - it's short and for kids, it was fast!)
No way there are 2 books of this silly name!!!!! I didn't even check the author.
And you know what it was lovely! :) It was beautifully written, good story line, there was bravery, adventure, coming of age, honesty, love, bad ass lady and a puppy. It was fast read and I am glad for this mistake :)
