sherlock holmes- you will not be disappointed March 11, 2010 Jim Hynes this was a fine collection of adventures that I really enjoyed. It is getting harder to find writings as good as this. A friend recommned this to me.
Deep and fast paced, but could be confusing for amatures. February 27, 2010 This book never failed to entertain me. With its fast paced plot and compelling mysteries, I was never once bored. However, I see how this book could be confusing and wierd to younger and less experienced readers. Reading this on the Kindle really helped me understand more what was going on because I had quick and easy acess to a dictionary.
Overall, it was oneof my favorites, but could be a challenging read.
Kindle Book Review February 26, 2010 Amanda (VA, USA) Sherlock Holmes is such a classic novel in itself, and I don't know anyone who either has read it and hated it or has read and re-read it and been bored by it. I love having the Kindle version and I am looking forward to re-reading it soon again, hopefully.
Can't beat it for the price! February 22, 2010 James Anderson (Florida, USA) Good collection of short stories that tends to get a bit repetitive and wear down as it goes on. Excellent value for the price though.
Great short stories February 19, 2010 Just a guy (Westchester, NY) I "bought" this to try out the Kindle app for Blackberry. The stories are short enough to enjoy when you have a few minutes of "alone time" to read. I only made it through the first three stories and they were well written and well produced in this format.
