Sherlock holmes and the shadow of the ratveld Highly recommended Mystery Nonfiction For me Sherlock Holmes here is too emotional but still a good one Mystery Nonfiction Lettura avvincente alla quale posso perdonare la manciata di perplessit che ho raccolto scorrendo le pagine Senza entrare nel plot con rischio di spoilerare accenner solo a un paio di elementi in odore di incongruenza nel 1895 un villain che ha gi avuto modo di essere scempiato e riprendersi da un grave incidente automobilistico e un locale londinese che serve spaghetti alla bolognese Licenze di traduzione o ammiccamenti all attenzione del lettore da parte di un autore notoriamente ferrato sulle topiche e limiti imposti dal Canone Mystery Nonfiction A little disappointingA nice read but the case was too easily resolved I won t say it was predictable but I thought the author took the easy way out regarding the plot Mystery Nonfiction Loved this adventure story with my picture of Jeremy Brett fixed firmly im my mind I was transported back to late Victotian times to join our protagonists So much so I almost invested in a cravat smoking jacket and pipe Beautifully written well crafted plot What could one ask Mystery Nonfiction This one of the better Holmes authors I read well over 12 15 a year they can very from average mystery with Holmes to fabulous twister to utter stinkers but that goodness they few far between This not one of bad ones. Sherlock holmes and the shadow of the rat epub free download This author has done number of great Holmes stories from author who can cram huge amount into short book He really understand Doyle this The Giant Rat Mystery Nonfiction More genuinely Holmesian than A Tangled Skein and not marred by the bull in a china shop revisionism of The Veiled Detective this reads almost like one of Sax Rohmer s Fu Manchu adventures at times While Davies fails to provide an especially compelling giant rat Watson steals the show by switching into Richard Hannay mode halfway through this novel However the rest of the story pales in comparison and the climactic events are awkwardly told with Davies switching from first person to third person for no other reason than a poorly planned narrative Mystery Nonfiction This was a bit of a curate s egg It started out well enough and DSD manages to catch the Watsonian style reasonably well At times there are odd modernisms was team player current in those days I hope not The breaks from Watson s voice however don t work anything like as well and I felt that they marked a weakness in plotting out the novel Overall the plot is reasonable and the core idea interesting but its denouement rather weak to my way of thinking In the same way I thought the chief villain a bit too cliche ridden Overall not a bad read but not a particularly striking one either Mystery Nonfiction David Stuart Davies comes up with an amusing fast paced adventure for the intrepid Holmes Watson.
