Review of "Neil Gaiman's a Study in Emerald" on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

A wonderful delight for Gaiman and Conan Doyle fans

I enjoyed the drawings a lot and the little publicity notes at the beginning of each chapter. As the name foreshadows, a "study in Emerald" follows a "study in scarlet" with a detective and his ex-military friend investigating a revenge kill. Fortunately there is no lengthy weird throwback, just the case being solved. I liked the twist at the end as well!
