Sherlock HOLMES

Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who was born at Picardy Place, Edinburgh, British writer, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, who is the best-known detective in literature, this book is about crime stories, where Sherlock is the detective, mistery and fail are the main characteristics.

The three Stories I chose are my favorite because has a lot of fail and mistery things, and They Are, Silver Blaze, The Final Problem and the Empty house, where the main characters are the detective Sherlock Holmes and his friend and trainee Dr. Watson, The principal Holmes' enemy Professor Moriarty, all is situated in Lndon, XIX century, principaly in the Baker Street where Holmes lived.

The crimes that Holmes was solving in this three chapters are, a horse robe, and an assasination, and in the second chapter the adventure in the capture or Moriarty, in Rainchenbarch falls.

The first story, Silver Blaze is about a robe of ahorse and the death of the horses's trainor, Silver Balaze was a racehorse, who is stoled, and it's propierty is a Colonel. The case is very amazing because in all the chapter you think the murder probably is Simpson, the youth who the police thoght is the responsible, or maybe you can think the muurder is the Colonel, perhaps, but at final the only true is that the trainor wanted money to pay his creditors, and he took the horse to another place to stake another horse and win some money, this was a very interesting case i like it so much, but i think that this storie can be mare amazing if Sherlock get wrong or something like that because is true that he is the best detective, but it is some strange that in a few seconds he solved this case. The second is The Final Problem; my favourite chapter, because in this Sherlock got into real problems, his life is endangered, his enemy wanted his death, and for a moment you thought is the Holmes' final, I mean this story is about The adventure in Raichenbarch falls, Holmes and Watson went there, first because Holmes was some strange and a little afraid, a very strange attitude to Holmes, so he moved from Londonto Switzerland I remember, but at first he ordered Watson send the suitcases to Paris, with this Professor Moriarty would be confused; but as Sherloch said Moriarty was the principal brain of the European crime, and he had a lot of allies in all Europe; so a man told Holmes and Watson that they must go to the falls, and they did that, but here was Moriarty, and Sherlock fought with him and both fell down the falls. With this and Watson's words i really thought Holmes was death, but in fact i thought too, that was the best final to Holmez, I mean after years of crmes cases, solved, and with London more pacific and a better place, the think that Holmes needed to be alegend was that, His death and the Moriarty's death, with this Holmes' mision was complete.

The last storie, The Empty house, was a very strange chapter, i don't know, i was very amazing and i was very excited by the last chapter, and i really didn't know what would happen in the next chapter, but i thought that would be a chapter about other adventures before the Holmes' death, but instead of that this Chapter was about the "Holmes' resurection", At first the story bagan with other criminal case, the death of Ronald Adair, and Watson was trying to remember Holmes' methods to solve this case, but in the middle he discovered that Holmes was alive. Holmes narrated him how did he scape from the death, a very incredible story, but Holmes was very clever, so, he put a wax sattue of him in his apartment in Baker street to confuse hid enemies principaly the Moriarty's allies, and guess what the person who tried yo kill Holmes in his apartment with a rifle, was the same who killed Adair, a very expedient final.

As The conclusion. I can say that i enjoy a lot this first part of the book, it has a lot of adventures, unwaited situations, crime cases, mistery, and the "gentlemode" of Holmes, I had't read a real version of Holmes yet, until this book, and I have to say that I like it a lot. There is only one thing that I didn't like, and it was the fact that Holmes seemed idestructible, but well this was a novelty in Doyle's age, but in general I Found it excellent in this first part.
