What's not to like about a Sherlock Holmes book. I enjoy a good fantasy romp in the supernatural realm. So, was excited to read a story in which Sherlock & Dr. John unravel supernatural dealings.
Although Sherlock only makes appearances in the story they are enough to whet the appetite. Also Adam's doesn't greatly change his persona. To that end Sherlock does in fact logically conclude the story with the help of his best friend and biographer Dr. John Watson. No surprise there.
I enjoyed the characters in this story, especially Thomas Carnacki, who from the start you hope is a "good guy". Dr. Silence (what a great name) and Crowley are portrayed well and with enough dimension to keep them interesting. The supernatural phenomena was enough to keep you turning pages to find out what is really happening and why.
