Me reading through Sherlock Holmes library for the first time (with the exception of hound of the Baskerville’s which I’ve read before): Strange. The mystery has been resolved but there’s still a good chunk of the book left

The villain: As you’ve bested me, mister Holmes and these constables shall surely take me to the scaffold, please let me tell you my humble life story in great detail.

    If you are willing to go audio, Audible had the entire series read by Stephen Fry and it is very well done.

    There are a few anime as well such as Case File 221B Kabukicho and Moriarty the Patriot.

    They are very loose adaptations in ways but have their own unique charms as well. I think there’s also one called Sherlock Bones.

    But yeah the Mormon situation was a huge adjustment. Figured the story was done or I had a misprint.

    I think the way the crimes are solved or explained is done better in Poirot stories, but Sherlock is enjoyable in his ways.

    Also it’s wild how certain people are always given such huge presences in adaptations but show up in ONE story.

    Gotta love it when people get their creative juices flowing.
