I am very cautious (like Margot) about books featuring old characters by new authors, but sometimes it can work, and Horowitz is a very talented writer.Clothes In Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14680610242823846662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644690488802388716.post-89955131265878463972018-03-07T23:08:26.167-06:002018-03-07T23:08:26.167-06:00Margot: Thanks for the comment.

I can think of no other fictional sleuth who has been carried on as successfully as Holmes. Until after I read the book I did not know that the descendants of Doyle had approved Horowitz to write this Holmes book.Bill Selneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268006369157307593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644690488802388716.post-81822339850665124212018-03-07T06:16:12.603-06:002018-03-07T06:16:12.603-06:00I'm glad you enjoyed this one, Bill.

I have to admit to being somewhat of a purist when it comes to crime fiction. I do prefer characters to be written by their original creators. A the same time, a good story is a good story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
