Sherlock Holmes vs. Cthulhu: The Adventure of the Deadly Dimensions

By: Lois H. Gresh

Narrated by: Dennis Kleinman

The shape of ancient evil

A series of grisly murders rocks London. At each location, only a jumble of bones remains of the deceased, along with a bizarre sphere covered in strange symbols. The son of the latest victim seeks the help of Sherlock Holmes and his former partner, Dr. John Watson.

They discover the common thread tying together the murders. Bizarre geometries, based on ancient schematics, enable otherworldly creatures to enter our dimension, seeking to wreak havoc and destruction.

The persons responsible are gaining so much power that even Holmes’ greatest enemy fears them - to the point that he seeks an unholy alliance.

Lots of fun

A very entertaining combination of two classic genres. I look forward to the next book.

Excellent Blending of Genre

Exquisite writing, plot, hooks, and characters. I will be buying the next two books, as well.

Great performance, pace weird

Good performance but story is lacking. Pace is off. Slow at times but then so quick that I had to RE listen chapter’s at other times. Story would have benefited from a good editor.

Fun story

Definitely enjoyed the mix between two timeless classics. Sherlock & Cthulhu is done very well here.

He has Conan Doyle’s voice, but the story could use some help

Gresh's writing style reads just like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

However, this book is a little scattered. Well, it had some elements that I found very engaging, it was hard to follow and much to be desired in the plot line.

I might well pick up the next book, but I haven’t decided yet.
