Criticize Out Of Books The Return of Sherlock Holmes (Sherlock Holmes #6)

Sherlock Holmes has not died after all! :) That was a very happy development. I was hoping he would somehow return (from the dead) given the title of this collection. At the same time I also entertained the idea that perhaps this collection refers to the cases before his supposed death. All was cleared in The Adventure of the Empty House , when Holmes makes a dramatic re-entry scaring the poor Doctor Watson out of his wits. With his return, Sherlock Holmes brings to us (through Dr. Watson's

I know now why this collection of 13 short stories is called The Return.. In the last story of Memoirs entitled The Final Problem, Watson says that Holmes has retired and will no longer publish new stories.

Doyle's writing style has noticably improved since the prior short story collection, and the plot ideas, which had grown quite stale, are generally more creative although there is still a heavy reliance on "someone's past comes back to haunt them." The

More Holmes. He's back and doing his usual of belittling everyone around and solving cases using the barest evidence while Watson is still gushing over every female he comes into contact with. If this was my first experience of Sherlock I might rate it higher, but it didn't live up to previous short story collections for me. Plus I'm starting to get irritated by the class/race/sex stereotypes of the day, I know I shouldn't judge on these things as that's just how life was, but reading so many of
