"Sherlock Holmes is an unparalleled genius. Warlock Holmes is an idiot. A font of arcane power, certainly. But he's brilliantly dim. Frankly, he couldn't deduce his way out of a paper bag. The only thing he has really got going for him are the might of a thousand demons and his stalalwart companion. Thankfully, Dr. Watson is always there to aid him through the treacherous shoals of Victorian propriety and save him from a gruesome death every now and again"--Amazon.com.

4 stars

I was not expecting this book to be so funny. I also admit that most of the fun comes from knowing the original stories and understanding the jokes, but still I was not prepared to laugh out loud. Wonderful idea to create a not-so-brilliant Holmes with demonic powers and a Doctor Watson that is brilliant but only human. Great duo and I look forward to read the next adventures. It was finally worth it to have read [b:A Study in Scarlet|102868|A Study in Scarlet|Arthur Conan Doyle|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1519031842l/102868.SX50.jpg|1997473].
