The book is so worthy to read. I’m a fan Sherlock Holmes so far, and after reading The Beekeeper’s Apprentice, I love him more, Russel as well.

I am a HUGE fan of the Russell-Holmes books. Every one of them. Beekeeper's Apprentice is a perfect introduction, but I can't recommend reading out of order. I did want to pop in to say that thanks to Laurie's guest blog, I found yours and am noting many of your reviews because we seem to have similar taste in literature. I look forward to reading many of your top picks and have bookmarked you for future reference!

I too seem to miss all the trends, and can honestly say I’ve not heard of this series. However I’m a big fan of crime mysteries and Sherlock Holmes, so will definitely be adding this to my tbr list.

This sounds like a series I might like. I am intrigued by Sherlock Holmes and haven’t heard of this one before. Sometimes these trends just pass me bye. Whoops!

Skipping ahead to the last book? O.o That’s a terrible idea. Seriously, I think you really should read the series in order.

I enjoyed this book, but it was a little too episodic for me. I haven’t read the whole series yet, but the book just keep getting better and better with every installment!

I got this book when I was in New York for BEA and you’ve made me want to read it right now!

Oh what a fun concept. I love Holmes so this might be totally my thing. Very neat!

I am glad to see your review of this one because I wanted to read it but then I kind of just forgot about it!

I have intended to read this series for years. I loved King’s other series, set in modern day San Francisco. I hope you enjoy the rest of this series too! I plan to start this one as soon as I finish the last two Maisie Dobbs books. Also, that cover is the most gorgeous one I’ve seen of it. It’s simply breathtaking.

I cannot say enough good things about this author in general or this series in particular.

There is skill & subtlety in writing which makes the reading a joy until you finish the book & are left hungering for more.
