[Calvin Daniels]

Actually a solid 4-plus.

I have loved this series, although it pushed Holmes into a magical realm.

Far better than second of Revels' three books in set.

I only wish there were more books in this storyline.

[Tony Ciak]

A wonderful adventure with a variety of dead characters and fairies, with Sherlock Homes and Doctor Watson on pursuit….loved it.

"Shadowwraith" is the last of the Sun and Shadow books by Tracy Revels.

A 'ghost' leaving gifts for a distraught young woman starts off a terrifying case that rockets from Whitechapel to the famous crypts in Palermo, Sicily and sees Sherlock Holmes's immortal soul in peril.

"Shadowwraith" is every bit as exciting and thrilling as the two previous books.

Even with the supernatural nature of the book, Holmes and Watson are very traditionally drawn and the friendship is strong. The supporting characters are well-drawn and interesting. Dr. Revels's depiction of Mrs. Hudson is a delight.

As with the other books, historical figures abound. I can't say whom without given too much away, but Dr. Revels's gives life to characters long dead - in more ways than one!

I highly recommend this book.
