Read it as a Part of The Adventures of Sherlock holmes book. Logging each story seperately eithout dates, so it doesn't mess up my stats.
Audiobook Narrated by Stephen Fry.

An eccentric story which is told masterfully. This short story sees Doyle bring out his humorous side and in doing so, reveal more abou the character of Holmes and the mystery of the book. Another great entry to the series.

I always thought 'short and sweet' was way overrated. But this book is an epitome of shortness and sweetness. We all love Sherlock, but to glimpse him on a singular, particular, spectacular case is the pure genius of Arthur Conan Doyle.

this story had a good balance of humor and active case solving, which is always a plus. some parts were less memorable, but overall a decent read.
