I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the narration was excellent. An interesting twist on the Sherlock Holmes storyline we know so well, remodelled into a future London with new types of villains to challenge his extraordinary abilities.

A terrific, novel idea of Holmes and Watson of the future

Sherlock is even more of a mystery in this clever version that mixes a reality of past and future. What I liked best is the bringing together of lonely souls to form a sort of family. Things might be tricky but when you have someone to watch your back, and believe in you, it just makes things better.
