The brilliant thing about this edition is having all of the original Holmes stories in one place.
Being written over a hundred years ago there are of course nuances and references that I don't understand and need to look up, but that's sort of the fun of it.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle had such imagination, and the writing skills to bring his work to life. It's no wonder Holmes has become the most recognised fictional character in the world today.
If you're after a bit of history or perhaps some background to one of the many Sherlock adaptations, I highly recommend this particular copy of Conan Doyle's work. No need then to own six books.
Overall though, worth every penny.
My only complaint is the size of the text. I'm aware it has to be this way to fit everything into one publication but, it does make it a little daunting to read. And probably difficult for those with bad eyesight.

This book represents superb value and comes with a ribbon marker in a slipcase. Inevitably, the book is quite large, containing the complete works, and the print is quite small - but larger print would mean a heavier volume. It's a joy to re-read all these cases and I do not tire of Conan Doyle's writing. The television series with Jeremy Brett was, for the most part, true to the writing, but as is always the case, read the book for the little musings, asides and descriptions which the screen cannot replicate.

It is difficult to find all of Holmes in a single volume - but this is what I needed, intended as a gift. This edition is exactly what I was hoping it would be. Binding is sturdy and attractive, printing is easy to read. Many single volume editions of this kind are either too bulky/heavy or the font is too small to be comfortable for easy reading, but this one succeeds! As a gift, this served perfectly, and I look forward to many opportunities to peruse it myself as well.

Sherlockians will like this book. Complete works in one place.
Very nice cover. Looks good on display. Well constructed.
Book is a tad heavy for us older folks...would be easier to hold and read in two or three volumes.
Print is a tad small...likely due too printing it all in one volume.
