The Sherlock Holmes Escape Book: Adventure of the Analytical Engine: Solve the Puzzles to Escape the Pages by Melanie Frances, Charles Phillips
3.0
An interesting and unique take on the "choose your own adventure" genre. Using Sherlock Holmes as the concept for the story was perfect; who else would work so wonderfully for what I'm fairly sure is the first of its kind?
The puzzles were just the right amount of difficulty to require me to think but not be stumped. Having to use the code wheel built into the cover of the book was the icing on the cake. I love something tactile in my puzzles.
I honestly hope to see more escape books like this in the future, whether they still feature the great detective or go in a different direction, the concept is just a brilliant one.
