awestaway 's review for:
The Penguin Complete Sherlock Holmes
by Christopher Morley, Arthur Conan Doyle
At long last I have finished this anthology. It's fair to say that I am now a fully ensconced fan of Holmes and Watson. Their various adventures, both short and long are still as engrossing today as the day they were written. I find it amazing that Conan Doyle had so much animosity towards the character he gave life to, although I suppose I can kind of understand. Holmes is an enigma, one that you try to unravel, just as you try to unravel the mystery along with him. Readers are enchanted by his bohemian charisma, but I can understand how it would become tiresome to create riddles interesting enough for him to solve as the years went by. This anthology took me more than a year to get through, but was fully worth the time and effort it took to read.
