A bit short but very good.
As the title says, the book was well written and well preformed, but left me want much more. I would love to see this as a fuller story.

very enjoyable but very short
a lot a fun time listen to and the narrator's voice was very suited to the character. I do wish however it was a little longer but what can you expect for such a low price.

Please hire Andy Weir to write more of this
This was really good, I loved how he drew similarities to Sherlock Holmes in their deductions. Please get him to write more it always nice to hear a fresh prospective on Sherlock Holmes arch nemesis Professor Moriarty and Andy Weir does a great job of this. Well done sir.

Excellent Story
Wonderfully faithful to the style of the Holmes stories, and the reversal of the direction we usually look at this world is refreshing and delightful.

Great but left wanting more
Great trio of short stories. Like other readers, I was left wanting more. Graeme provided a narration that matched the stories.

A criminally short book
What if Sherlock Holmes arch-nemesis had an amanuensis like Watson, who wrote down his adventures? That's what this collection of stories is about.
But Captain Moran can't publish these memoirs, because they are confessions of crimes!
My main complaint about this book: it's too short! The audiobook was barely an hour long.
As an aside, it reminded me of Neil Gaiman's story "A Study in Emerald," which treats the same matter in a somewhat ... different manner.

Perfectly written and narrated
I just happened across this book and almost wish I hadn't because it left me wanting much much more. In fact that's the only bad thing I have to say about it is that it's only an hour long. It's impeccably written in the style of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and if you weren't paying to close attention you would think you were reading a Sherlock Holmes story rather than one about his arch nemesis. I hope the author has more of this planned because I'm hooked. And without giving too much away, the last lines of the final chapter give me hope for more to come.

Smart twist on Holmes story
Very well done although too short to be worth a credit. Audible needs half credits for short stories.

Love it!
I am a longtime fan of Sherlock Holmes, but I love this new perspective of Moriarty. He’s the evil Sherlock, and not only do you see his genius in solving problems, but he twists it all to his own advantage. MORE PLEASE!

A good tribute to the Holmes universe
Andy Weir did a good job of creating a villain in the tone and tenor of the Sherlock Holmes universe. And in keeping the stories short and quickly wrapped up, Mr. Weir seems to be using a style reminiscent to the days when The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes were also short pieces written for magazine inclusion.
In these stories, Moriarty is certainly the much darker side of Holmes. He uses similar observations and reasoning in assembling the clues into answers. In fact, my favorite parts weren't when Moriarty would wrap up a mystery. Actually, in two of the stories the outcome were somewhat predictable. Instead, my satisfaction came when he would describe how all the clues came together.
In all, a good tribute by Mr. Weir to the Sherlock Holmes universe.
As narrator, I found that Graeme Malcolm's delivery was top notch. His voice is both deep and rumbly almost to the point of gravelly combined with British smooth. In his characterization of Moriarty, he sounds like someone I wouldn't want to cross.

Very clever short story!
So the James Moriarty, old archenemy of Sherlock Holmes, makes another appearance. I believed he was dead! The audiobook is overpriced at $5 for 70 minutes of listening time. Did Andy Weir of The Martian fame really write this? In any case it is a very clever short story which is also well narrated. Fun!

Lackluster and short
Using the standard Sherlock Holmes format Andy Weir writes a couple of short stories with a couple of twists but no real depth. The problem is exacerbated by the narrator who, in an effort to sound sinister, just ends up sounding flat, I am a fan of Mr Weir’s work but maybe he is just better at stories when he has time to develop them more fully. This one is only worth a credit if you’re just too curious to pass it up, like I was.

Moriarty is a bad person. And you will love him.
Andy Weir is brilliant and these Moriarty stories are fantastic. Excellently voiced over and I hope volumes and volumes more will be forthcoming. Thanks Andy!
