Why read it?
1 author picked Professor Moriarty as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I don’t just love this book; I adore it. I have read it so many times that I have worn out two paperback copies and need to acquire a new copy. I found this such a fun book. It inverts the Sherlock Holmes world, with the “hero” being Professor Moriarty, and the narrator being his henchman Colonel Sebastian Moran.
I laugh every time I read it, especially because of its Sherlockian humor and the appearances of characters from other books of the period.
From Margaret's list on set in or about the Victoria Era.
