The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes November 5, 2008

Filed under: Arthur Conan Doyle, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes — marilisa616 @ 11:39 am

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s this book was a really good one. It’s all detective stories and good one too. Though there are a few boring ones, most of the stories are really interesting with a good way of mysteries. I cannot say mystery that cannot be solved, we may be able to guess what’s going on. But, he was able to devise these stories brilliantly. Each one is entirely different one from the other. A good read, if you like detective stories.

    Sherlock Holmes books are always brilliant but I hate his method of working, hate in the sense I can never never work it out myself, can’t even start thinking in that direction. I rather prefer Agatha Christie, Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys and Perry Mason myself…

    I don’t know why, but sherlock holmes books never enchanted me much.
    Mr Poirot was a much better detective i feel.
    but never heard of perry Mason i guess.
    Still, i like that Dr watson character in the holmes series.

    I’ve read and reread Holmes over the last 2 decades. I never get tired of them! Do you like Jeremy Brent’s or Rupret Everett’s Holmes better?

    you’re missing out on great stuff if you haven’t read Perry Mason. Perry Mason is the _best_ detective in fiction.
    (btw, the author of Perry Mason novels is Erle Stanley Gardner)
