Ok, that was a lie. The thing is, I already knew 'whodunit' because I had seen both the 1939 and 1959 film versions of this, the 1959 recently - fun, kind of cheesy, a young Christopher Lee as Sir Henry, ha! Anyway, I really enjoyed this one. It was a nice change of pace, for one, but also a well done mystery. I found myself totally engaged and getting caught up in the story. I had only read The Lost World prior to this, but have always enjoyed Holmes as a character on the screen, big and small. If it was this fun to read already knowing the end, then I am definitely up for other Conan Doyle adventures.
I really liked taking a break from all the contemporary novels our group usually reads to go back and read a "classic." The story itself was fine, but what I ended up enjoying more than anything was all the information about Doyle and the entire Sherlock Holmes library. We had a good discussion as a group and I am looking forward to reading more Holmes in the future.
