   Reader note

   This is a good book. It's a no-romance novel and really captures the subtle British humor. The characters are well-developed, like the subtle probing and sparring between Charles and Holmes. The intellectual aspect is fantastic. Especially the banter between Charles and Holmes, and some incredibly cute descriptions. It doesn't use abstract language, but I laughed even harder than if it did; it's the kind of knowing smile that makes you smile. Actually, I hadn't read any of the original Sherlock Holmes books before, but I had no problem reading it. The author is really skilled at writing, like the scene where Charles argues with Watson. It involves time travel and plagiarism, but there will be original content later on. The protagonist will feel guilty about plagiarism. Readers who are bothered by this should proceed with caution.
