A MAN NAMED BASKERVILLE reviewed at My Murmuring Bones

A Man Named Baskerville by Jim Nelson

Viktorija over at My Murmuring Bones reviews A Man Named Baskerville as one of the last legs of the Escapist book tour. She offers an enthusiastic review of the book, and I’m more than grateful for it:

Nelson’s style is convincing and engaging, and places his novel firmly shoulder-to-shoulder with the Sherlock Holmes canon. The attention to detail and careful references to the established course of events are striking, and the character of Baskerville is portrayed with startling humanity. By far best of all is the way Baskerville refers to Holmes and Watson, and those passages are delightful to read.

This well-researched, carefully crafted, and absorbing read will delight mystery aficionados and Sherlock Holmes fans, and would very likely give Doyle himself immense joy, not least of all for the treatment of his storied detective. “It’s time someone said it,” he would surely exclaim.

I’m blushing! Check out the full review is at My Murmuring Bones, along with Viktorija’s other reviews of books and film.
