Summary: A Sherlock Holmes Story Starring...Dr. WATSON!
Review: Well, you don't get much of Holmes in this story, and many folks either neglect to mention that or just don't notice. I figure they don't notice because it's such a darn good read. At first, it's TALK, TALK, TALK. But the restlessness left me with oncoming chapters and I became engrossed. Read it!

Summary: "A Classic that will never be forgotten............"
Review: As a 13 year old adolescent beginning High School, I never would of thought that I would enjoy this book so much, but I did! Once I started I just couldn't put the book down.The way that Holmes controlled everything that came across him and how whenever he talked , you just knew it was of importance. Not to mention, Dr.Watsons great respect towards his mentor. Their relationship throughout the story was very special to me. Also, Sir Henry's courage and bravery was conveyed throughout this awesome mystery......and who to give admiration for devoloping all these characters and the marvelous plot and history of the hound of the baskervilles, none other than Sir Arthur Conan Doyle himself. His unique writing style and English dialogue that was used all fit into the mood and setting of the story....and I loved how they said that sometimes Sir Arthur actually pictured himself as holmes throughout the story while writing. O.K., I may not know much about literature or writing at all, but I stand behind my beliefs and opinions very strongly when I say that The Hound of the Baskervilles was not just a book, it was something that had my mind exercising each and every day before I go to bed and first thing when I wake up in the morning and that I admire Sherlock Holmes more than anyone or anything of intellegence.

Summary: This is Sir Doyle's best Sherlock Holmes Adventure.
Review: I have read The Hound of Baskervilles and found it to be the most chilling, thrilling and surprising of all of Doyle's stories. This story closely resembles an Edgar Allen Poe horror story.

Summary: A very exciting book I couldnt put it down.
Review: The hounds of baskerville was one of the most exciting books I have ever read. Once I started I couldn't stop. It keeps you wondering what is going to happen next in the many twists and turns it has. Compared to any other book of Sherlock Holmes this is definitely number one. I was on the edge of my seat from cover to cover. The author Sir Conan Doyle put together an excellent mystery suspense no other mystery book compares to The Hounds Of Baskerville. I really enjoyed how Sherlock Holmes could solve anything with just observing it with his eyes. There is not too many more mystery books out there of this caliber. I recommend this book to anyone who likes edge of his or her seat suspense. This is probably the most exciting mysteries I have ever read in years. I recommend this as a must buy or rent.

Summary: Good mystery, but a little bit stretched
Review: Another astounding story of the great Sherlock Holmes. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle composed a well-written novel that is one of teh better mysteries I've read. Some parts of the book can definitely be cut down. This 170 page novel could be cut to a 100 page novella. Good action and critical thinking solutions make this novel very interesting.

Summary: One of the best books ever!
Review: This is the first Sherlock Holmes book I have read, and it is by far the best -- I say this after having read everything but the Return of Sherlock Holmes! After this book, you are hooked. It's a mesmerizing mystery and a chilling one too, but I wouldn't particularly recommernd it if you're squeamish...

Summary: One of the best mysteries ever!
Review: The Hound of the Baskervilles was an excellent book, and one of the best mysteries I have ever read. Holmes, the superhuman detective, is asked to investigate the death of Charles Baskerville, which many believe to be the work of the ferocious hound, a curse brought about by the misdeeds of Hugo Baskerville. When Sir Henry inherits the estate, Holmes must solve the mystery before another Baskerville meets his end!This novel has one of the most complex plots of any mystery, with many unexpected twists, and is one that will keep you reading until its suspenseful, engrossing climax. The setting is also well put together, and the danger of the foggy moor only adds to the drama. This story had huge appeal for me, largely because of the believability of the characters. Holmes, Watson, and Henry are very realistic - and people that I would want to know. Holmes was so real to many readers, that they actually wrote to 221 Baker Street, his fictional address! Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was not only a great mystery writer, but a wonderful novelist as well. This novel is proof that he really deserved the title of knight!
