“What do you know, pray, of Tapanuli fever? What do you know of the black Formosa corruption?"
“There are many problems of disease, many strange pathological possibilities, in the East, Watson.” He paused after each sentence to collect his failing strength. “I have learned so much during some recent researches which have a medico-criminal aspect....” ("The Adventure of the Dying Detective", by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle)
In this two-volume collection of traditional Sherlock Holmes adventures, the good doctor himself is given a chance to shine. These two volumes contain 26 mysteries involving such maladies as plagues, poisonings, cancer, Parkinson’s disease, dementia, somnambulism, and many more! The stories are traditional Holmes pastiches and are written by some of today’s top Sherlockian writers!
This anthology is in collaboration with Dr. Ed Chan, who is raising awareness of lung disease caused by non-tuberculous mycobacteria, a very difficult-to-treat (often incurable) and increasingly prevalent form of pneumonia (related to tuberculosis) caused by microorganisms that are acquired from our home and outdoor environments.

Need to work on editing skills

However, and you knew there would be a however, the narrator was simply not up to the task. He did not give each character a sufficiently distinct “voice” to make it clear instantly who was speaking. I know that that is harder work, but it really makes the difference between a reader and a glorified text to speech person.
But that’s not all. Every few minutes, he either misread or mispronounced a word. You need a larger than average vocabulary to properly read Victorian or even pseudo-Victorian literature, and when you don’t have it, it is painfully obvious to people like me, who do!
Finally, the editing was just not up to scratch. There were a number of places where one or more lines were repeated, and in one of the readings we were treated to his dog barking.
So my summary is this: the stories are at least good, or better, but be prepared to be disappointed with the narration.
An interesting melange of stories
