Publisher's Summary

Sherlock Holmes is an unparalleled genius who uses the gift of deduction and reason to solve the most vexing of crimes. Warlock Holmes, however, is an idiot. A good man, perhaps; 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 things he really has going for him are the might of a thousand demons and his stalwart flatmate. 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.

An imaginative, irreverent, and addictive reimagining of the world's favorite detective, Warlock Holmes retains the charm, tone, and feel of the original stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle while finally giving the flat at 221b Baker Street what it's been missing for all these years: an alchemy table. Reimagining six stories, this riotous mash-up is a glorious new take on the ever-popular Sherlock Holmes myth, featuring the vampire Inspector Vladislav Lestrade; the ogre Inspector Torg Grogsson; and Dr. Watson, the true detective at 221b. And Sherlock. A warlock.

Funniest book ever!

I have over 400 audio books in my library, and this is one of my favourite listens. Possibly the favourite. The story and the performance still make me laugh out loud after 3 listens. Imaginative and ridiculously silly, in a great way. Warlock Holmes voice is hilarious, and Dr. Watson's patience with his roommate and partner's madcap antics is commendable. Never a dull moment in this tale. Six stars if I could.

Better than expected!

It is an entertaining set of stories with an ending that leaves you wanting more, I have never heard of this character before but it is quite an interesting take on the originals.
