A review by annarella
Sherlock Holmes and Count Dracula by Christian Klaver

5.0

This book should come with a warning, something like "You will not be able to put it down until you turn the last page". It's high on a "sleep deprivation" and fun scale.
The Holmes&Watson are very "canonical"and very original at the same time. All the elements of the canon are there and they work very well in a paranormal setting.
I thought this was going a sort of Sherlock Holmes vs Dracula sort of story but I was wrong and got more than I bargained. The Count Dracula is a sort of side characters but I got plenty of vampires (and some elements taken from other historical horror series).
The author did an excellent job in mixing the different world and making them fresh and original.
The plot is complex, there's plenty of unexpected twists and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
It's a highly entertaining story that I strongly recommend.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
