Deftly written by Roger Jaynes, Sherlock Holmes: A Duel With The Devil is a truly fascinating novel about the life-and-death struggles between Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic detective hero and his eternal arch nemesis, Professor Moriarty, a mathematical genius gone homicidally mad. Told from Dr. Watson's point of view, this thoroughly engaging and quite faithful pastiche presents a terrible duel between Holmes and Moriarty for "the very heart and moral soul of London." An engagingly read which written with a love for and a close eye upon the original Doyle stories, Sherlock Holmes: A Duel With The Devil is also available in a hardcover edition (0947533850, ...).
