 Sherlock Holmes Story Review #3 Story Name: The Yellow Face Summary: Sherlock Holmes was waiting for somebody when his partner came in. The partner proceeds to then tell a story about seeing the wife at a new neighbors house, and seeing a van that held a peculiar person watching them. The partner and Sherlock then proceed to follow the case and solve it. Review: This story is a improvement of the other stories, providing a sense of mystery while also not making it too confusing for the reader. This was a problem I had in other stories, so I am glad that they ironed-out a few of the bad bits, for a clean and overall nice story. The problems that were also fixed in the last story were not present here. Plus, it still has Sherlock Holmes, but he still is not the main protagonist. Once again, the first person point of view problems are still here. Situations are still confusing overall, and is just generally less fun to read than 3rd person point of view if you do not do it right. The...

Sherlock Holmes Story Review #2 Story Name: A Case Of Identity Summary: Sherlock Holmes was simply chatting with his partner, when he heard of something unnatural. Of course, this being his specialty, he begins investigating it. His partner finds out that a person has been taking identities, and eliminates all the possible disguises to find the culprit. Review: This is a little bit better, with it being shorter. I like it being shorter because it makes it easier to read the story, and not have to go back several pages to learn about something in another page because of all the stretched out information in large books. The main plot of the story was also unraveled earlier, instead of being mentioned later on. Plus, it has sherlock Holmes, which is always nice. However, that is where the good ends, and where the bad starts. Sadly, this story is still in the first person point of view. As I mentioned, there are several problems with it. First, situations that would normally be easy to und...

 Sherlock Homes Story Review: #1 Story name: The Red Headed League   Summary: Sherlock Homes learns of a case about the "Red-Headed League", where the thing in question is "Dissolved". Sherlock Homes investigates the case, and finds out that something fishy is going on. He finds out at the end that there is a criminal plan in question that caused the dissolve, and thus stops the plan.   Review: Currently, the only thing that I like about this is that it has Sherlock Homes, and that's about all of the good things about this. I normally like books of this sort, but this one just does not cut it. 1st off, the 1st person point of view is my least favorite trope. It doesn't have the "knowledge" of 3rd person, and even though a mixed story with both of these views being used, this is purely 1st person, which makes it not enjoyable. Another thing I do not like about this is that it takes too long for the proper action. In fact, the red headed le...
