Helpful Score: 4

This book held my attention, which says a lot, because I rarely read novels anymore, opting instead for more substantially educational venues. I don't recall why I actually ordered this book from a PBS member, but it may have something to do with liking literature from the era about which this book was written. I found the tone of the author consistent with the subject matter and really quite entraining. I read the whole book over 3-4 days. The plot was original and interesting. The style almost flawless. In short, it was a very good read and I recommend it to anyone who likes reading literature in the style of Poe or Arthur Conan Doyle.
