The Hounds Of The Baskervilles,
By A Customer
This review is from: Great Mystery Series: Sherlock Holmes - Hounds of the Baskervilles: Great Mystery Series (Audio Cassette)
Most people love dogs, however, that hound in this book was anything but charming. Henry Baskerville, the heir to a vast fortune and a valuable estate, feels that his life is in grave danger because of a frightful family legend. The legend statesthat all Baskerville heirs will be plauged by a great, luminous and ghastly hound that will haunt them until the day they die. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, his assistant, traves to Devonshire where all this is happening. It is up to Holmes and Watson to solve the errie case of "The Hounds Of The Baskervilles." There were many things I liked aboput that book "The Hounds of the Bakervilles" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. One thing I liked about the book was thatsit had a superior plot. As a reader, I was dreawn into the book by the very first chapter. The book was written in first person, being Dr. Watson. Since the book was written in first person, I felt as though I was right beside Watson and Holmes back in the ninteenth century. I felt this way because of the wonderful descriptions and many adjecitives. When I read one of the descriptions of the hound, my breath was taken away. In one passage Doyle writes, "Even now, it the stillness of death, the huge jaws seemed to be dripping with a bluish flame and the small, deep-set, cruel eyes were ringed with fire." This is an excelent book that all will enjoy reading!
