Summary

'If I were assured of your eventual destruction I would, in the interests of the public, cheerfully accept my own。'

In The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, the consulting detective's notoriety as the arch-despoiler of the schemes concocted by the criminal underworld at last gets the better of him。

Though Holmes and his faithful sidekick Dr Watson solve what will become some of their most bizarre and extraordinary cases - the disappearance of the race horse Silver Blaze, the horrific circumstances of the Greek Interpreter and the curious mystery of the Musgrave Ritual among them - a criminal mastermind is plotting the downfall of the great detective。

Half-devil, half-genius, Professor Moriarty leads Holmes and Watson on a grisly cat-and-mouse chase through London and across Europe, culminating in a frightful struggle which will turn the legendary Reichenbach Falls into a water double-grave 。 。 。

Kitabın sonu。。。 Çok sinirliyim, üzgünüm ve ne diyeceğimi bilemiyorum

Mi edición tenía este libro y "El perro de los Baskerville"。 En los relatos, me ha encantado conocer más al Sherlock joven, detalles de su pasado。 De hecho, su hermano es súper listo, y creo que podría hacer muy buen equipo con él si también se hubiera metido en el mundo de la investigación。 Estoy deseando continuar las historias de Sherlock Holmes, y no dudo en que lo haré pronto Mi edición tenía este libro y "El perro de los Baskerville"。 En los relatos, me ha encantado conocer más al Sherlock joven, detalles de su pasado。 De hecho, su hermano es súper listo, y creo que podría hacer muy buen equipo con él si también se hubiera metido en el mundo de la investigación。 Estoy deseando continuar las historias de Sherlock Holmes, y no dudo en que lo haré pronto 。。。more

Doyle le coge el truco a su personaje y construye algunos de sus casos más complejos y de solución más elegante。 Suerte que ahora sabemos que hubo cinco libros más porque en su momento debió de suponer una conmoción que todo acabara en el mejor momento。

WowIf this site had a 7 star rating I would have given it to this book。

Inferior to the first collection of short stories。 While there were some good ones, they were mostly just mediocre。

Nick Lewis

A collection of short stories that all seemed to fall short of being good enough to make into a full length novel。

Rating: 3。5Al igual que el libro anterior, esta es otra recopilación de historias cortas。 En general, estas no me gustaron tanto como aquellas pero hubo unas muy buenas como "La Corberta Gloria Scott" porque fue el primer caso de Sherlock; "El Interprete Griego", porque hace su primera aparición Mycroft; "El Problema Final" donde Sherlock se enfrenta con Moriarty。 Rating: 3。5Al igual que el libro anterior, esta es otra recopilación de historias cortas。 En general, estas no me gustaron tanto como aquellas pero hubo unas muy buenas como "La Corberta Gloria Scott" porque fue el primer caso de Sherlock; "El Interprete Griego", porque hace su primera aparición Mycroft; "El Problema Final" donde Sherlock se enfrenta con Moriarty。 。。。more

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is the master by which all other detective stories are measured, in my opinion。

No date, no rating - DNF @ p208I know, this seems so far in for me to DNF。 This just isn't working for me。 I'm bored and I have no motivation to read another 120 pages of it。 Holmes mysteries do not work well compressed into 20-30 page short stories。 I also just could not stand the blatant racism and ableism。 It's a no from me。 No date, no rating - DNF @ p208I know, this seems so far in for me to DNF。 This just isn't working for me。 I'm bored and I have no motivation to read another 120 pages of it。 Holmes mysteries do not work well compressed into 20-30 page short stories。 I also just could not stand the blatant racism and ableism。 It's a no from me。 。。。more

Sherlock Holmes no decepciona。 Los casos son muy buenos y no te esperas cómo pasaron las cosas。 Todos me gustaron。 Pero se me hace que no tienen esa chispa que hace que no quiera dejar de leer。

But what will the world do without Sherlock Holmes?I thought this short story collection was fantastic, especially in the overall world and legacy of Holmes and Watson。 Some very interesting cases, and even more curious is how the Adventure of the Cardboard Box is not included in some editions, and that it was taken out of publication to it's more grotesque nature, that the entire introduction is used in a different short story。 I thought I was going crazy reading the same thing again, in a comp But what will the world do without Sherlock Holmes?I thought this short story collection was fantastic, especially in the overall world and legacy of Holmes and Watson。 Some very interesting cases, and even more curious is how the Adventure of the Cardboard Box is not included in some editions, and that it was taken out of publication to it's more grotesque nature, that the entire introduction is used in a different short story。 I thought I was going crazy reading the same thing again, in a completely different chapter and story, but it didn't have much baring on the separate cases, so I was able to move past it quickly。Then we get introduced to Sherlock's brother, Mycroft, who had not been mentioned until now, and finally, FINALLY, with the last story, we see the Holmes rival in Moriarty。 We also see more of Lestrade, which I was glad about since we have seen a revolving door of various policemen so far, so its nice to have some recurring characters。 But I was surprised how we didn't come across Mycroft, Moriarty, or any other similarly recurring characters, but I guess that's why the stories stay interesting, because they are all brand-new。 I do hope we will see more of those mentioned above in future installments。 If there are any! (Spoiler alert - there are)。 I really enjoyed Watson putting all he had observed from Sherlock to the test in the final story, and it is fitting that Holmes would essentially vanish, leaving his own little mystery behind。Really fun stuff, and all of these stories are easy to read, and great because you can read a whole one in one sitting。 。。。more

Another excellent entry in the original series about Sherlock Holmes。 There are a wide variety of cases involving the intrepid detective and his faithful aide, Watson。 I thoroughly enjoyed every one, including the last story, The Final Problem, in which the author attempted to kill off his popular character, apparently so he could get on with writing about other subjects。 But as history shows, the reading public was not so easily put off, and there flowed from his pen a number of other novels an Another excellent entry in the original series about Sherlock Holmes。 There are a wide variety of cases involving the intrepid detective and his faithful aide, Watson。 I thoroughly enjoyed every one, including the last story, The Final Problem, in which the author attempted to kill off his popular character, apparently so he could get on with writing about other subjects。 But as history shows, the reading public was not so easily put off, and there flowed from his pen a number of other novels and short story collections that added to the legacy of Holmes。And I can't wait to read them!Ratings:- 🌟🌟🌟🌟 。。。more

Esta serie de relatos cortos, muestran todas las características que enamoran a los amantes de Sherlock Holmes。A mí, personalmente, aunque este detective me entretiene con su personalidad pomposa y egocéntrica, sus casos me parecen muy previsibles。Aun así, no dejaré de leer las novelas que caigan en mis manos sobre este personaje único。📖♥

I enjoyed this collection of 11 short stories just as much as the full length Sherlock Holmes novels I had previously read。 They are quick reads and although have similar occurrences in some of the stories they each had something different as the main appealing factor。 the most significant change from prior stories is the introduction of Sherlock's brother Wycroft and his famous adversary Professor Moriarty。 I'd recommend this compilation to any Sherlock fan and also to any lover of a good myste I enjoyed this collection of 11 short stories just as much as the full length Sherlock Holmes novels I had previously read。 They are quick reads and although have similar occurrences in some of the stories they each had something different as the main appealing factor。 the most significant change from prior stories is the introduction of Sherlock's brother Wycroft and his famous adversary Professor Moriarty。 I'd recommend this compilation to any Sherlock fan and also to any lover of a good mystery 。。。more

Una colección de relatos muy entretenidos de leer ya que en cada caso puedes ir sacando tus deducciones y llevarte más de una sorpresa。 A su vez siento que me he vuelto más observadora en mi vida en general。

Amé este libro。 Casi todos sus relatos me encantaron y me parecieron muy entretenidos, hay solo 1 del cual no puedo decir lo mismo, es "El oficinista del corredor de bolsa" que no me pareció tan interesante y el caso en sí no me asombró ni me interesó mucho。 Sin embargo, todos los demás me parecieon increíbles 。 Mis favoritos fueron "La corbeta Gloria Scott", "El tratado naval" y " El problema final"。 Creo que va a ser uno de los mejores libros de la saga。 Amé este libro。 Casi todos sus relatos me encantaron y me parecieron muy entretenidos, hay solo 1 del cual no puedo decir lo mismo, es "El oficinista del corredor de bolsa" que no me pareció tan interesante y el caso en sí no me asombró ni me interesó mucho。 Sin embargo, todos los demás me parecieon increíbles 。 Mis favoritos fueron "La corbeta Gloria Scott", "El tratado naval" y " El problema final"。 Creo que va a ser uno de los mejores libros de la saga。 。。。more

This was the best of the books yet, and does further convince me that Holmes does much better in short stories (though, the Hound of the Baskervilles is next, and that novel is much beloved, so I may change my mind)。 Though I knew it would happen, I was so surprised that (view spoiler)[ Holmes dies so early in the chronicle of works, and only in his first story with Moriarty。 (hide spoiler)] This was the best of the books yet, and does further convince me that Holmes does much better in short stories (though, the Hound of the Baskervilles is next, and that novel is much beloved, so I may change my mind)。 Though I knew it would happen, I was so surprised that (view spoiler)[ Holmes dies so early in the chronicle of works, and only in his first story with Moriarty。 (hide spoiler)] 。。。more

Chociaż to zbiór opowiadań, a ja wolę pełne powieści, to dał radę! Szczególnie końcowe opowiadania były dobre。

Amber Ray

Mostly a solid collection of Sherlock stories, the Yellow Face sadly showing the racism of that era。 Some of these end a bit abruptly, any of the Sherlock stories that have postscripts of action occurring off camera are ones that I find unsatisfying, but these are usually good ones。 Hound of the Baskervilles remains the best of the Sherlock stories in my estimation。
