Another great collection - I especially enjoyed 'The Speckled Band'. ( ![]() Sherlock Holmes solves mysteries. 2.5/4 (Okay). Some of these are pretty bad, especially the early ones where Doyle (and therefor Holmes) is on the side of the villains as often as not. They improve as they go, as Doyle settles into a formula. Unfortunately, unlike the preceding novellas, there's no character development at all. (May 2022) Skemmtilegar sögur af snilli einkaspæjarans sérvitra Sherlock Holmes. Hann er sennilega ein fyrsta ofurhetja skáldsagnanna og það sem gerir hann svo eftirminnilegann er að Doyle skapaði hann breyskan, drambsaman, félagslega heftann og frámunalega gáfaðann. Allar bera þó smásögurnar keimlíkan svip. Kúnni mætir til þeirra Holmes og Watson, leggur fyrir þá vandamál þar sem sárafáir einstaklingar koma við sögu. Holmes sér það sem enginn annar sér, leiðir af því réttu rökin og leysir málið. If you've ever read Sherlock Holmes, you don't need me to tell you how brilliant this collection of stories is. It has most of my favourites: A Scandal in Bohemia, The Adventure of the Red-Headed League, The Five Orange Pips, The Man with the Twisted Lip and The Adventure of the Speckled Band. The rest are all great too, but those have always been the stories I remember, even after reading the entire collection at least half a dozen times. Sherlock Holmes is, far and away, my favorite all-time literary character and I never get tired of reading him; Watson... ok, if I read too many stories in a row I want to throttle Watson because surely he can't be that obtuse all the time? But he's a big teddy bear and someone needs to play the straight man to Holmes' brilliance. [PopSugar 2015 Reading Challenge: A banned book.] This is the first Sherlock Holmes I have read. I was disappointed, although I have to admit I enjoyed the stories more as time went on. Maybe it is that I am not a fan of short stories anyways because it is difficult to build character but it seemed to me these stories were dry and lacked imagination.

He's rude, arrogant, cold, unfriendly, and easily bored. But nobody minds, because Sherlock Holmes is a genius at solving mysteries. This collection of some of Holmes's most intriguing cases includes unabridged tales of blackmail, lost fortunes, and, of course, murder. Reissue. No library descriptions found.
