Enjoyed listening

Solid writing and narration. Holmes character is a believable extension of the Arthur Conan Doyle original. Mycroft is also well written. The historical scaffolding appears to be well researched, though when mentioning the WWI bombing of Britain, it should be mentioned that it was done by Zeppelins. During WWI aerial bombing and aerial warfare were limited. The potential was realized by some enterprising pilots, who would load broken typewriters etc. and drop them on the heads of the enemy. As the war progressed bombers were developed, the first bombs were aimed and dropped by hand. Instead of saying “the bombing of London”, saying “the German Zeppelin bombing of London” would create a more accurate impression of post World War I Britain vs WW II Britain. In general, enjoyable if not inspired. You can spice up your book club night with all of the books in this series by saying H and downing a shot after every quoted excerpt that includes the word “preparation”. This author uses that word at least once in every 5 minutes of narration.

This book is a witty, absolutely sensory overload of well-written fun :) I loved it!!!

Really enjoy the characterization of Holmes and Russell. In this book, the narration was better than the book.
