I’m a long time Sherlock Holmes fan, so I was glad to finish up my read of the series with the Casebook of Sherlock Holmes. As is consistent with what I’ve heard of this book, some of the stories seem rather out of character for both Holmes and Watson, especially the tasteless bouts of “period appropriate” racism, they just seemed out of place with these two despite the time period. Otherwise, I enjoyed the short stories as usual, I particularly enjoyed the story of ‘The Lion’s Mane’, I always find mysteries involving creatures very fun. It took me a while to get through it due to those stories round the middle but, all in all, pretty good :)
