The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes sees Sherlock Holmes solving some of the most puzzling cases again. His friend and biographer, Dr. Watson, chronicles how Holmes uses his extraordinary intellectual faculties and practiced power of observation to find out facts that most people didn't even consider important. In Sherlock Holmes's method of work, the most basic and mundane facts become the most damning of clues. His talent allows him to become the effective consulting detective who turns the pedestrian into extraordinary. This volume contains some of the most famous of Holmes's successes, including The Illustrious Client, The Lion's Mane, The Blanched Soldier and The Creeping Man. In this collection, we also see Holmes recording his own adventures.
Set of 7 short stories narrated by either Watson or Holmes. A good start for early readers willing to try out the mystery genre. Could be disappointing for seasoned thriller mystery readers.
The stories of Casebook of Sherlock Holmes are entirely different from the other adventure series of Sherlock Holmes. There is less suspense involved in almost all stories except The Mazarian Store. The chemistry of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson really worked out well in stories.
