Hypnotizing Maria by Richard BachMy rating: 4 of 5 Richard Bach has hypnotized me. It is in no way easy to comprehend the concept of hypnosis when you see hypnotist shows or are even subject to it. Hypnosis can reach into areas of the mind that cannot be reached when awake and not in a […]

Sherlock Holmes Investigates. The Pink Jewel Conundrum by Philip van WulvenMy rating: 2 of 5 stars Sorry this one took me longer than usual. I finished this late last night and was out all day today. So….. let’s get to it…. This book had a pretty strong starting point. It certainly felt like a Holmes […]
Review: The Devil’s Grin
The Devil’s Grin by Annelie WendebergMy rating: 1 of 5 stars I don’t understand this book’s aim. Is it a Holmes pastiche? Is it its own story? I put it under Project Sherlock because it uses Holmes’ name and tries to pay homage to his methods…. for the first chapter of the book. After that, […]
The continued Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Samuel IngraldiMy rating: 2 of 5 stars In the simplest terms, too short. The so-called “resurrection” of the diabolical Professor James Moriarty has been done before (many times, in fact). Counting this short story, I have already perused three novels concerning the return of the Napoleon of Crime. […]
Review: Shadows Over Baker Street
Shadows Over Baker Street by Michael ReavesMy rating: 4 of 5 stars Please note that my rating of this book is merely the rating I gave out most often to the stories presented and does not represent the rating for every story. Those ratings make up my updates. This novel shouldn’t work. Sherlock Holmes mixing […]
The Last Sherlock Holmes Story by Michael DibdinMy rating: 3 of 5 stars The problem is sometimes preferable to the solution…. I’ve read Dust and Shadow and that novel honestly did not live up to expectations. So why did I pick up another Holmes mystery involving Jack the Ripper? Well, first of all, I’m running […]
Review: The Sherlockian
The Sherlockian by Graham MooreMy rating: 2 of 5 stars This one’s going to be difficult to review… but I shall press on… So I debated for some time over whether this novel should even be under the Project Sherlock moniker, but ultimately decided to keep it under the project because it pays homage to […]
Review: The Seven-Per-Cent Solution
The Seven-Per-Cent Solution by Nicholas MeyerMy rating: 4 of 5 stars What started out as a simple novel about helping Holmes to battle addiction quickly turned into a much larger struggle and I have to say that it captivated me. I pitied poor Holmes. I felt like I knew where he was coming from. I […]
The Shadow of Reichenbach Falls by John R. KingMy rating: 2 of 5 stars This novel fought hard for the position as my favorite Holmes pastiche – a position that currently belongs to a novel commissioned by the Conan Doyle Estate (of which there are two books and I’m not revealing which one is my […]
Dust and Shadow: An Account of the Ripper Killings by Dr. John H. Watson by Lyndsay FayeMy rating: 3 of 5 stars Well. The crime was the of the darkest nature I’ve ever seen Holmes take on. I don’t think I’ll be able to keep anything down for a while. Joking aside, this was good, […]
