It's good, very good. This book is episodic, with each episode featuring a different protagonist. There are basically no female leads, but it has a strong Cthulhu cult vibe, hence the traffic restrictions. Plus, the author doesn't seem to know how to change the tags, resulting in a consistently low readership. It doesn't have the same impressive readership as similar books.
This is a book that really appeals to readers. It's classic Sherlock Holmes horror. After finishing the first story, I felt a blissful ignorance 😎 The author's literary skills are very high. The first story from Xun's perspective is a very good imitation of Xun's writing style. I read the beginning of the second chapter, the Sherlock Holmes chapter, and it's still like that.
Wow! I only skimmed through a few words, but I could already feel the author's profound cultural knowledge and the astonishing similarity to the various original works. I'll savor it more when I have time. I'll add a longer review later; my head hurts today 😩 I'm going to sleep now... Also, the author is so kind, always giving likes! - ̗̀ ෆ( ˶'ᵕ'˶)ෆ ̖́-
I just finished reading the second volume of Sherlock Holmes and a sequel to Neil Gaiman's *The Mysterious Case of Honey*, and I'm blown away. The portrayal of Sherlock and Warwick's characters is superb. Sherlock is never a melancholic pretty boy, but a warrior fighting on the most dangerous and dark front lines!
A masterpiece! I especially loved the self-analysis part—calm, rational, yet confused and frantic. Looking forward to the next update!
I read the first story, and the writing was excellent. Here's a suggestion for the author: When reading on a mobile phone, some paragraphs are too long and inconvenient. Could you please reformat the text, breaking down large paragraphs into smaller ones? This would make it easier to read. Thank you.
I just finished reading the first volume, and it's amazing! Keep up the good work, author!!! It's a shame nobody reads it; it's a masterpiece!
Reading history helps us understand the past and appreciate the strength of our motherland, which allows people to live in peace and prosperity.
Great, excellent writing!
A masterpiece! A masterpiece! Worth watching again and again!
